I made a brie and bacon baguette for dinner as I never got around to it at the weekend.

Ents so far has been Only Connect, The Repair Shop, African Renaissance: When Art Meets Power, and now Great British Bake Off. I didn't realise GBBO started last week.

only Tuesday, FFS.
i'm too old to work five days / week.
maybe i'll knock it on the head.

I really enjoyed it when ClientCo cut our days down to three a week. It was so nice. When it went up to four days a week, I alternated my Mondays and Fridays off so I had a four day weekend every other weekend.

Five days a week is hard work.

now the locust players have been joined by the hound of the baskervilles.

Ribs and chips for tea

I was thinking of getting the remainder of the lamb and some veg started in the slow cooker to simmer overnight for making Scotch broth tomorrow, but I don't know if I can be bothered. It'll keep another day or two

I liked doing a three day week at ExClientCo over in Cambridgeshire, but it would have been even better working remotely too - maybe pop over there once a fortnight

Dinner has been sainsbury's 'TTD' fish pie, with extra cheddar and parmesan topping.
and a nice Chablis.
ents is a thing about the poor bastards who got bombed out of their homes in the east end of London by those lovely german chaps.
then i think, - more Murdurs in that village.

Wish I could bloody knock it on the head. Sadly at 38 that's a way off yet.

OTOH sometimes I wonder what the hell I'm working for. Can't see a lot of good things on the horizon and I find living in the moment almost impossible. It's depressing surveying the possibilities for the next thirty-odd years. If I had decent life insurance I'd string myself up and save myself the bother.

Nice not-too-far-off-full moon out tonight

[WTFH]

The Wife (tm) got home at 19:15. My meetings finished at 19:40.
Dinner was omlettes (one of my go-to meals) made with guinea eggs, home grown tomatoes, onions and garlic, and foraged mushrooms (amongst other things)
Washed down with a bottle of Babel. It would have been my mum’s 83 birthday today, instead it’s 8 years since we buried her. Happy birthday mum.

Would have been my parents 68th wedding anniversary the other day.

They only made 63 in reality, it being almost 5 years since Strangelove Pater popped his clogs.

Entertainment: the commentaries on AVP: Requiem.

Not altogether scintillating it must be said, though the guys in the rubber suits were mildly amusing.
