Been awake for ages. Don't mind too much right now but suspect I'll pay for it later.
Vivid dreams last night and not sure what set that off.
WFH, maybe a bike ride later. New normal and all that.0 -
Morning, it an overcoat colder this morning I doubt it will warm up in this northerly wind, best get the merino base layer out again
Beside that tigger walked, breakfast consumed, coffee going down nicely
Have a good day

Not 'arf back to several layers. When out yesterday for good ride, felt weird in a short sleeve jersey and shorts at first, back for a reality check for Easter weekend Brrrsungod said:brrrrr, north wind and several degrees colder than yesterday, forecast wintry
Shopping to do (Boo!) nothing much else, on the bright side I may/will nobble a cider or two later0 -
WFH meetings all morning, wife's cousin coming over for lunch in the garden, then another B12 shot this afternoon to look forward to. I don't normally mind jobs, but these ones sting!0

Just landed at the desk and the kettle was already boiling. That's service for you.
Shopping after work to stock up for the alcoholic onslaught that is a bank holiday weekend.Advocate of disc brakes.0 -
Been to pick up the shopping, click and collect.
Mrs Slog went into the store to pick up some flowers from the foyer, was out very quickly because the place was packed.
Like Charlie above, yesterday was my first ride of the year in shorts and short sleeves and even then i was too warm. What difference a day makes.
The older I get, the better I was.0 -
FBM - ****ing busy morning. Not ACOAD territory yet but we'll see. Got a big court case coming up next week with €23m riding on it so squeaky but time soon.

Long day dragging coursework out of year 13 students before the deadline hits. Quick visit to the supermarket, definitely caught the 9yo’s cold. Nice cuppa in a minute I think.0

Endless meetings, we're exiting a lot of poorly performing investments. We want to try and keep or use losses. Also year end. Also appraisals, with one minion being a pain in my arse. Tbh, if he's that "demotivated" by no pay rise (hahahahahahaha) or promotion, I'd rather he left. No-one is irreplaceable, though he's trying to make himself so by never telling me what the fcuk he's up to. First I hear of things is when he's pissed someone off. He's had his final "friendly warning" from me, my boss, and head of HR. His targets around communication are ultra specific, if he fails to meet them he will be managed out for insubordination. I beat him to head of department, when he was the anointed one. He's been a pain ever since.oxoman said:Bloody hell what's happened to everyone today. You sure as hell haven't flown away on holiday.
So, busy. Easter doesn't exist in Japan, so will remain so.
Beats ennui. Keeps me off the "seven percent solution", metaphorically speaking.0 -
I can recommend a 9.6% solution, Shattered Dream by Siren Craft Brew. 😉0

- Buying rather than selling - still
- Fortunately minions all doing well, trying to get pay rises and/or more responsibility for two of them.
- Periodic game of musical chairs in Tokyo means new head of finance who I know from when he was in Treasury and spent a fair bit of time outside of the Japanese bubble.
