The day at the office was as expected. The PM and I nearly missed a meeting because we were too busy gossiping. Then we went for a long lunch in the pub before leaving at 4pm.

Further out of town with Jack Hargreaves. Nice butterflies. Fishing.
Tea: Tesco battered haddock. Nice enough. Entertainment: PM <click> UFO bollox on Blaze.

Morning denizens
It’s a fairly sunny start but the strands of high cloud seem to be starting to clump together; we had some brief spells of rain last night, but none are expected today (though that’s what they said yesterday). It’s 16°C with an expected high of 24°, and the barometers are much the same at 1011/1019mB

In A Game of Birds and Wolves, the war game is up and running in Tate & Lyle’s former offices on the top floor of Derby House, and is a huge success! Within the first few days they’d uncovered the U-boat tactic of casually catching up with a convoy on the surface at night, getting in amongst it, firing off a few torpedoes, then submerging and letting it move on ahead while the RN escorts all rushed around in different directions on the outside, assuming the attack must have come from out there somewhere
Goodnight all

Tea has been a spicy lamb burger out of the freezer with chips and beans, largely because the beans needed to be used up
There’s also the fact that I didn’t go shopping last week, so I’m using up stuff that’s been lurking in the freezer for too long such as the burger
Accompanying this, the start of Mob War: Philadelphia vs. The Mafia, a Netflix documentary about cleaning up organised crime in the early 1990s… or at least trying to

Final day done. Invoice prepped but I'll issue it tomorrow (as well as one for gig1) as it's the start of a whole new financial year.

Lunch has been a bit of initially cold chicken that I heated up in the air fryer, just for a change
