Not me, I’m not working today. 😜

Today I just have to be physically present for a few hours: my problem was more that I was exhausted (that unpleasant stage where you feel slightly nauseous for some reason) so went to bed at half past nine, was woken at midnight and then couldn't get to sleep until three.

Incidentally am I the only one to find yawning really annoying when you can't sleep? It feels like my body is nagging me that it's tired, but refuses to implement the solution.

Morning!
I have got to go out soon and take our car for a re test.
Where has this high pressure that the weather peeps promised that would bring clearer weather this week ?
The bad weather seems to have come in from the west travelled across to the North Sea done a U turn as is heading back again !

A ton of overnight rain and its still going down here.

Don't forget your trousers before you go out.

If it had kept going it would have come here, so I'm entirely in favour of this arrangement.

New ebikeon back of car

Will it go faster?

 

[Illaveago]

Well it hasn't passed yet but it almost didn't get there!

It had developed a pull to the left when braking .

I asked them if they could investigate before doing a re test as it would fail immediately. They discovered that a bush had failed in the period between the test and re test.

They are now doing the repair .

Probably all the festivals keeping you awake.

Oktoberfest?

In the early hours?

Party is just getting started.

It's a local thing. Protestant villages have Kirbe, which is a sort of street market and fair, and a few weeks later Catholic villages have Fasching which is a procession with costumes. That way everyone gets to go to both.

Probably all the festivals keeping you awake.

That probably isn't helping, but I suspect the real culprit is nerves about the interview tomorrow...

Cold but dry with no wind. Must be an age thing but when everyone else is in T shirts I have broken out the polo necks for the winter as I am freezing. Central heating is going on today and hang the expense.

I think I'm about to be arrested for Income Tax fraud, that is according to the nice man on the telephone just now. I said bring it on I could with a laugh.
