Blog2021 ≫ We get an official wellbeing hour today

Work have talked about this "wellbeing hour" before, today it is official. I'm trying to work out how to fit it in so I can go running in the daylight. Take the boys out on their bikes in their lunch hour and run as they cycle? Leave them sat outside a sweetshop while I get an extra kilometre in and then pick them up on the way back? It never works out well running while they ride but it's worth another go. I get a two hour lunch today and have time to make their lunch, eat mine, run outside, and maybe put some washing in too.

Today is going better at work than yesterday. I figured out this morning yesterday's task was unpossible, so now I have let that go I can move on.

We watched TWO HOURS of TV yesterday, a special Thursday treat. An episode of Spiral, and then Death In Paradise. This series is not very good, shame, I don't know what has changed. The new junior cop is annoying, but not as annoying as last series' junior cop. The lead actor is the worst of the four so far too.

Clare was still up at 5:30 this morning and I'm still not allowed to talk about her training.

Twenty-five years ago today I was at a great gig, NME Brat Bus tour with Bluetones, Heavy Stereo, Fluffy, and The Cardigans, lovely. Did I go to some related signing thing at HMV or Tower Records that day too? Also did I drive up? I half remember picking someone up in Guildford on the way. I absolutely loved all these bands at the time, so a good lineup. Did I have an inkling then I might be working for NME later this year? I don't think so at this point, it all happened quite quickly over the summer.
