Turned up to be greeted with the news that there's a change freeze on, and I can't actually do anything.

IN at 8 - several meetings with analysts & testers to review requirements docs, fixed a couple of bugs in the previous release that's currently in end to end testing. Started coding my first job of the next release then as I was leaving the end to end test guys had an problem running the job and needed a bit of support - as usual it was caused by their inability to read all the documentation, code is fine.
Back at hotel at 7.50
I'm sorry, but I'll make no apologies for this
