Lovely supper of cheese & onion soup followed by crispy chicken things, chips and some salady things. Oh, and had some raspberries for afters.

That's work over and done with until the 2nd of March - just the one day and then off again until the 6th
I'm away for the next couple of Tuesdays and Wednesdays so the 4 days leave takes me just below the maximum allowed to be carried over, then I'm using the 7hrs off that I'm owed on the 23rd to get almost a fortnight off work. Going part time seems to have worked out just fine for me.

My new front mudflap needs trimming

Had they done a risk assessment?
Did you receive training in cake eating techniques?
Were you required to sign a release waiver agreeing not to hold your employer responsible?

Cake day was deliberately chosen due to the H&S rep being away for the day.
We've had enough practical experience on cake eating to have written the training manual.
Management didn't need a waiver to be signed as they were bribed with a bakewell tart.

And the left over lemon muffin was a much needed elevensies distraction from a hectic day.

I am increasingly convinced the touchpad on this laptop is possessed by demons.

Either that, or it was a tortoiseshell cat in a previous incarnation...

The AA 4.8 watt one which comes with the OBD adapter as standard.

I have the smaller 2.4(?) watt one and may upgrade to that one.

Dinner at a new-ish Italian restaurant last night - to find (what seemed almost the entire 😀) Italian community in Singapore also gathered there for a celebration complete with live opera arias. An unexpected pleasure!

Repeat offenders then.

Time to bank the fire for the night and head off upstairs to bed.

Nunnight one and all xxx

Off out with the dog.

Seems to be a bit stormy this morning.

It's a bit stormy here as well. Laundry load underway.

Made it down the stairs

Looks like it could be a nice day as the breeze seems to have stopped.
Kettle has boiled and tea is brewing.
