Home!
Acting on the assumption that the agent might not make the situation clear, I took the opportunity of having a chat about my forthcoming end date with the chap I work with at ClientCo. He was sympathetic to my plight in terms of desperately needing a break, both to recover and to get things like my kitchen sorted out, and my dislike of driving both ways in the dark. It turns out that, although they are pretty certain they have more stuff to do, they're still making decisions about what and when.
I mentioned that I would be amenable to part-time stuff or alternatively being able to work from home a few days a week, and he brightened up a good bit at that; I think maybe they aren't sure they have enough work (or possibly budget) to justify a full-time contractor, so hopefully something along those lines might pan out. We left it there for now as he's still not sure what the future holds anyway

Nah it's just a lump in the cartilage. It's a bit sore but probably due to me prodding it.Originally posted by NickFitz View Post

I got a new bike lock today to secure my bike at home. I can't believe some people on Amazon carry the damn thing with them when they are out and about as it's heavier than the two locks I carry with me combined."You’re just a bad memory who doesn’t know when to go away" JRComment

Steak - ribeye - and chips for tea
The current spuds are from Norfolk. Having given the matter the closest consideration and after much experimentation over a number of years, I'm inclined to say that though Cambridgeshire, Lincolnshire, and Suffolk all produce a fine Maris Piper, Norfolk's are the best for chips

I leave one round the bike rack at ClientCo. Probably should bring it home for the winter.Originally posted by SueEllen View PostI got a new bike lock today to secure my bike at home.
