    Son is back off to Cardiff this weekend. Going back for freshers week, despite it being his second year, to take advantage of the freebies.

                Count of turds observed in trench: zero.

                Amount of work done in trench in last 3 days: zero.

                Zero turd count in trench. Sommat may happen today, since there's a transit van parked up.
                Have you considered the possibility that there may be some correlation between the amount of work done and the number of turds in the trench? IS there any evidence of toilet facilities being in place for those working in it or are they having to "improvise"?

                    Sunny but cool first thing.

                    Vacuum cleaner the size of a truck on the go at 7:30.

                    Well, it is a truck. A bit like a cement mixer, but huge vacuum cleaner on the back.

                    And a 10 metre long hose thingy. They are using it to remove dug out rubble from a narrow alley.

                    Very noisy, and emits a loud trump lasting several seconds when they turn the vacuum off.

                    Train on time.

                    Shirt sleeve weather by 11 o'clock.

                    Clear blue skies.

                    River looks inviting but I bet it's a bit nippy.

                      Greyish with a hint of brightness.

                      Warm.

                      Not raining (currently), though it did its best overnight.

                      Train on time.

                      Zero blindpersons.

                      Hill steep. Slippery bit still slippery.

                      Turd count in trench currently zero.

                      Skool in view.

                      Monday.

                      And, joy of joys, the new intake arrive this very morn.

                      Someone shoot me now.

                      It would be a mercy.

                      Please.

                      Pretty please.

                      Pretty please with a cherry on the top.

                      Uuuuuuuurgh.
                      Oh go on then, if you insist . . . .
