    It also involves having to make a decision on what to wear.

    I was up at 4:40 to do what old men have to.

    Then had a look at the computers. I kicked off a deep virus scan on the workstation as I suspect something but cannot find it.

    Went back to bed.

    Didn't get up again until shortly before 9am.

    Virus check still running, so can't use that box. I've done all my domestic stuff. I suppose I could go down Tesco's.

    I still have no idea what the entry 'City' in my day planner means. Nobody has called me yet to ask me where I am.

    I've got to put my quant/data analyst undies on today.

    it's 11:09, decided to get the 7:44 train rather than plane from Cologne to Munich so I could get some work done.

    I'm 1.5hrs away from work, have got very little done other than have some nice sausages, a few cups of tea, watched the Mad Men tv series and had a little nap

    wonder what the restaurant carraige does for elevenses <wanders off to look>

    I don't want to join the army,

    I'd rather hang around Piccadilly underground,
    Livin' off the earnings of a high born lady
    I don't want a bayonet up me arse 'ole,
    I don't want me bollocks shot away,
    I'd rather stay in England, in merry, merry England,
    And fornicate me fckin' life away.


    On Monday I touched her on the ankle,
    Tuesday I touched her on her knee,
    On Wednesday I confess, I lifted up her dress,
    On Thursday I saw it, gor blimey,
    On Friday I put me 'and upon it,
    On Saturday I took her out to tea,
    On Sunday after supper, I whopped me fckr up her,
    An' now I'm payin' forty bob a week!

    I know I'm too old for this tulip ! My solution for the last 5 or 6 years is to sit it out for local work only and undercut the opposition on rates. However in the current job market I'm not too hopeful when I join the bench in a week or so. It's time for some Plan B fantasy world thinking !

    I'm knackered - I didn't even go out on the beer yesterday!

    Anyway - soon be Friday!

    Look on the bright side Churchill. You would not want to be fully awake on a Monday in Swindon. Best to go through the day like a zombie, you will fit right in Wiltshire that way.
