Anyway if I get it it means:
1. Bang goes my semi-retirement, back to 5 days a week. Don't know why I do it
2. I was right that this sector (HEOR) has exploded recently. I reckon there's a real lucrative small business in it, as in getting offices and hiring people, but I can't be arsed
3. You will have less of my wit and wisdom for your delectation and delight as I will be rather busy for a while
My lazy side always battles my get-up-and-go side. One day I'll find the balance.
Childminder is on holiday this week, I have all child care and housekeeping duties.
