    WFH again which is a win, also means I can go to the local tri clubs swimming group later. Got a feeling this is a mistake

    Is it a tandem on the turbo?

    That would be amusing to see.

    Very grey here, no fog/mist/burning warehouses today

    I do have the amusing mayhem from HR who are picking on my office minion saying they need to re vet her an make sure shes eligible to work in the UK. I know she's Welsh but its a bit harsh, just to add comedy her passport expired so they refuse to accept that. They also refused to accept her drivers licence so now sorting out getting hold of a full length birth certificate which is the only other form of ID they will take :D

    I thought Wales was a different country as there's a bloke in Cake Stop who's adamant that Scotland is...although on the bright side they've scrapped the Severn Bridge toll, so she won't have to pay £6.50 when they 'deport' her :)

    Average grey day and not too busy in the office so am doing a couple of projects of choice. There are idiots on the horizon however.

    Afternoon folks,
    Just scoffed a chicken tikka, not bad at all but not big enough. Need to wait for the meeting to finish in the boardroom and then steal any left over biscuits.
    Another busy day, or at least it should be. Suffering an amount of cba, this is mainly caused by the sense I'm bashing my head against a brick wall.

    Don't let them any closer to avoid the head/brick wall interface.
    Eurgh, customs commodity code queries.

    Managed to keep them away.

    Commodity codes - stay clear if you can. I've got 3 minions over in Clogland who do customs stuff - best kept several hundred miles away as its so soul destroying.

    Customs stuff, the Brexit growth sector.

    Oops, early press. The day of enforced do nothingness draws to a close with a glass of Houblon Chouffe to hand, woodburner on and a peaceful home alone evening. And relax...

    Well done. Unfortunately I have to help with commodity codes as I’m one of the few that knows what things are, descriptions on the system are not good enough to enable most others to do it. This means more sh!t gets dumped in my lap.
