    Morning denizens

    The increasing light outside reveals that it's rained quite a bit overnight, and seems like it's going to remain pretty grey all day

      And I have to go and change a car wheel in it.
      I'm a smug bastard.

        Awaiting an exciting delivery today: an exercise bike!

        Although the long term plan is still to get a proper bike, I've been putting it off because I need to address my general out-of-shapeness first. As the weather's also unlikely to be conducive to cycling much for a couple of months or more, I decided to get a cheap-but-well-reviewed exercise bike for now, to hopefully let me get my general level of fitness back more to where it ought to be.

        I suspect the first serious bout of exercise it provides will be getting the box upstairs when it's delivered, but I daresay I'll manage

            Morning

            Flippin 'eck folks, it's Wednesday! You do realise that this means tomorrow is Thursday? But not just any Thursday.

            Tomorrow is;
            a) Christmas dinner at staff canteen (I won't be going)
            b) Typically the day when all the motivational BS emails from management get sent thanking everyone for not keeling over this year and making a commitment to 'work smarter' next year.
            c) Most importantly, it's my last day at client co for the year.

              Morning all.

              In a sudden fit of enlightenment last evening, I realised that Welsh Water seem to think ZeitMater has popped her clogs, whereas she's actually still alive.

              So they've stopped the DD.

              And it confused me yesterday, so I sent them an even more confusing email about it.

                Dunno. It would have to be rewired & redecorated & even worse, emptied.

                But it's gonna need to be emptied anyway, so I'll investigate next week.

                  See above for Welsh Water cockup.

                  I hope to send his LPA stuff back to the OPG today, having found a big feck off brown envelope.

                    Start looking at reviews for comfortable seat covers asap.


                    Looking at the bright side, you've now got a nice new clothes horse.
