Am finding work a touch stressful – as I mentioned yesterday we are very rapidly running out of bodies on the ground, and today was even worse than planned as someone rang in sick. So it’s been all hands on deck, and as soon as that happens, my work rate slows even further as I’m perpetually fire fighting rather than getting shot of the causes, and my stress level goes up accordingly.
Ah well. Not long til the weekend 😉
And the journey home was a bit slow – car broken down under an underpass, and slow bits on the M1 where they were scraping other cars off the road 🙁 Still, at least Tim got my car fixed today, so I can drive that tomorrow. His does have good points (like heated front windscreen) but I miss my little fiesta, and I get a sore neck driving his.
So that’s the down points – in plus points I made it to the post office to get my last parcel in the post on time, which pleased me. I’ve pretty much given up on cards (if you were hoping for one, sorry, it ain’t coming) which means that now I’m into the home stretch with preparations.
For the political stuff, don’t know how many of you remember me linking to a compass survey about nuclear weapons. I got a follow up email from them today, saying that the defense secretary has written an article for the site. It make interesting, if rather depressing, reading. Was quite interested to see a comment from our exMP on the thread. Oh, and we’ve been invited to the current MP’s for Christmas drinks 😉
