18th February R
Another late, swift ale at the Swan & Railway on the way home. Delight at finding Doctor Morton’s Duck Baffler, seemed entirely appropriate.
Bit of a session on the new bonus scheme, people are getting a bit uptight about it. Had nothing from it yet but then my value hasn’t been wonderful. But believe we are getting there. Think one of the issues is that it is very difficult to calculate value beyond the basics.

Queenie comes out to play! Meanwhile a day that started off poorly but finished relatively strongly.




Day off and it’s been a busy day. Off to Wigan to fetch the bike. Get off and nip into Go Outdoors… third set of handgrips and new daysack, (zips on the last are pissing about so bin beckons). Coffee at Kawa’s. Train, fetch meds for Elsie and then to Aldi. Get stuff for tonight’s tea. Discover it’s only C and myself. Cook us a bolognese. Then off for a new Qi charger, the bits I forgot, grab a quick pint, then a haircut. Go to find C a wheatbag, proves to be a more problematic thing than it should be. Sort handgrips (the hairspray tip works!) and cook.
Last early ’til Sunday. We celebrate! Finally a HBB.
A day of issues, an issue of days. On the plus side email from the pensions folk.
Hmm back to work today, need to work on the whole value thing. News from Nathan is he’s expecting a wee girl. Day wasn’t too bad, some clangers but some good news too.
So last day off for a couple of days. A day of rest, a few bits and bobs done, phone the vet and sort cat tabs, ask about her vaccination date. She’s due jabs the middle of next month so need to ring back at the beginning of the month.
Laundrette day
