Well, I left home at 8am this morning and didn't get to work until 10:30, for a journey that normally only takes 1hour.
Mind you I did take the long route in, and was on my motorbike [img]images/graemlins/jump3.gif[/img]
So does that count as a 2.5 hour tea break ?? [img]images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Can't wait for going home time now... [img]images/graemlins/jump3.gif[/img]

Well it was 44 when we landed in Vegas on Thrusday night. Doing 12 hour days, and having a 'couple' of drinks in the evening [img]images/graemlins/062802drink_prv.gif[/img] . Achy-oil, work and heat don't mix well.

Looking forward to coming back home again. Especially as my car is at the paintshop at the mo, being de-chipped etc.

Sounds lovely John. And all for a 90 minute presentation that you probably could have done by video conference, eh [img]images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img]

When I got in from work I had the pleasant job of removing loft insulation from our bungalow, followed by taking the ceilings down (having some quite extensive building work done).
Boy was it hot in that loft !! [img]images/graemlins/flame.gif[/img]
