Morning, you 'orrible lot. Like Matt, I also slept through. What a feeling! Had a cold the last few days and yesterday a test and trace email saying you've been near someone who tested positive for covid, blah blah. Been testing daily, all clear and same again this morning. Must have been someone on the flight on Sunday. Maybe passenger locator forms do work. Anyway, flushed with joy a being the pinnacle of manly health, today I shall scamper in and out of London fast to do a thing, back home long before it gets dark. Which is a bit bloody early, if you ask me.

Have good days, whatever the h3ll d4mn day it is.

Good morning everyone, I'm back to work today, well the place that actually pays for bed and board...

since we're talking compensation, I got a miniscule contribution (by Newton's Standards) to my MC20 fund from Nationwide for their incompetence. I can now buy the air in the tyres...

Morning all. Well I think it is.
Joseph has picked up a sickness bug, so with Alex sorting Sophia out during the night I got to look after Joseph. Which means he was up every 30 minutes for most of the night.
I think I may have got 2 hours at one point but cannot confirm that.
But to his credit, he didn't whinge or complain, and even thought sick coming down his nose was funny. Kids eh?

I now feel like what I imagine a zombie feels like.

Have kids, they said. It'll be fun, they said.........

Good morning Phil, good morning all - Friday - Last day in work for me for week. A week off before the madness of Christmas starts in our industry.

Top of the morning from a sunny Cape. Gym, coffee and then a fundraiser golf day to start the “weekend”. Enjoy your Friday

Morning all. Friday at last.
Serious challenge today, at least until Amazon delivers. My coffee grinder went pop (wasn't even being used) and tripped our electrics. Which led to an entertaining hour trying to work out what had blown and then resetting the servers (I really should get a UPS)
Now I have limited coffee and a new grinder on order......it could be tense :)

Have a good one, all

I have something of an (undeserved IMHO) reputation, 'tis true! I was working on the sofa, nowhere near it guv. Honest!

Although I have very much decided that I am not going to see if I can fix it. More that testing it will require a controlled shutdown of a stack of kit....

Morning all, tired after 10 hours of driving yesterday, the last 20 minutes of which was just a string of emergency stops occurring in front of me! Two of which ended up in shunts!

Anyhow, today is yet more admin, a bit of tidying in the unit and getting ready for the shoot tomorrow and a pool kayaking session.

Have fun all…
