    Fed up now...

    Morning.

    Grey & Dry in Neath.

    Grey, dark, dank, torrential in Swansea.

    Direly unpleasant.

    Train on time at 1 minute late.

    Zero blindpersons.

    Hill steep.

    Rivers of water descending.

    Feet now wet.

    Skool in view through the deluge.

    Wednesday.
    And how us the view of Port Toilet? Always seemed unfair they get a view of the Mumbles while the good citizens of Oystermouth get to see a steelworks cloaked in haze...

      That reminds me of ICI Wilton where I turned down a contract because I didn't fancy the commute in the winter months. Should have found myself a nice B&B instead of worrying about that.

      If the fire alarms had ever gone off your best bet was probably to work out which direction the wind was blowing and head upwind, sharpish.

          Still Wet, Grey and Cold here in Central London.
          I am Brad. I do more than the needful and drive the market rates up by not bobbing my head.

            'twas briefly sunny with blue skies earlier on.

            Managed to make it to within yards of home just as the rain started.

            Before I had even got my door keys out, it had turned to hail.

            April showers, just a wee bit early.

                Windy.

                Dreadful.

                Dire.

                Cold.

                Train on time at 3 minutes late.

                Zero blindpersons.

                Hill steep.

                But, bestest of all, thank flipper it's Friday.
                I'm getting a bit concerned for the blindperson Zeity. When did you last see them?

                  ZeitFather fainted outside Barclays in Neath.

                  ZeitFather (plus ZeitMother) in A&E in Morriston from about 2pm.

                  Me in A&E from about 5 until 7, and 9 until 2 a.m.

                  Car in Safeways carpark from 12:30 until 7pm.

                  Spoke to nice lady & hope to avoid fine.

                  Couldn't figure out the interlocks on the gearbox so couldn't get it out of park to go back to Morriston.

                  Read book this morning.

                  Problem solved.

                  Back to A&E sometime today.

                  Can't have mot on Fiat until Monday.

                  Back in work on Monday.

                  I have such wonderful "holidays".

                  The shape of things to come.

                  ZeitFather returned from A&E at Morriston.

                  Spent night on trolley in A&E on heart monitor.

                  Extra two pills to take to add to the others.

                  Parked on double yellows outside entrance using magick blue badge thingie.

                    Morning.

                    Grey grey grey.

                    But warmer.

                    Switched the heating down a couple of notches, which probably means there'll probably be a cold snap before I return home tonight.
