I really appreciated us all getting the seasonal colds/flu thing about 6 weeks ago.  I thought we'd all be clear of any illness when our holiday arrived.

While that's worked out pretty well, I didn't plan for the stress factor which has kind of taken over. I wouldn't mind so much if I was clear, but I know I come back to around 2 months of pre-booked work.

I suppose it'll pay for next year's vacation.

Tomorrow I'll be closer to your timezone and may catch that wave in real time.

However, there are other waves for me to catch...

Hi B'.

A dignitary, no less.

Well, I'm finally in Loosha - and up and about at 4am... That'll have to change as there is no sun at this time!!

Go to bed. Jet lag be damned. More beer.

I decided to go fishing instead. No luck as yet, but my daughter had a tiddler with a £6 kid's rod and reel.

We threw it back as it wouldn't've fed a cat (her words).

That's plenty of beer and a baseball cap in my language.

After driving son home from Wales, so he can receive his A Level exam results, I am about to drive back to Wales after buying a few bits and bobs we forgot.
So a quick visit to say hello  :)

Well done, him.

I'd be happy if either of my children did that well.  In fact, i'd be happy if they uninstalled minecraft.

Like that's gonna happen..

My daughter is playing Minecraft right this minute. Every single day I have to negotiate how much time she will be playing. It's exhausting.
