Sick again

Hiding inside away from the suicide bombers, protesters, fiddling popstars and insane world leaders. Was feeling better, until I got out of bed, so having checked mails and reported in to work, I'm heading back there with a Lemsip.

Hard day in the office

Yesterday morning we rowed, but to rhyme with toad and not to rhyme with loud. Here is me doing the management, while Chris and Ben provide the workforce.Summer hit with a vengeance, I have a fairly rosey t-shirt tan now....

York (being the fourth part of my holiday)

York is great, a lot like Canterbury, but seemingly with more pubs. Our hotel was the birth place of Guy Fawkes, and had sloping floors and four poster beds, proper historic. It practically butts up to the cathedral, not sure you can tell from my pho...

And we're half way through the week already!

Well I am, don't know about you, I've got Thursday off too.

Quiet and lonely night in tonight, Clare is off to the OPERA! What is going on?

Bonus day off!

Well not really a bonus day off, I will probably end up dipping into next year's holiday allocation for this, but I got car trouble.I knew there was something up with the car Sunday, screeching noise from the brakes, hopefully just the brake pads. Bo...

Harry and Daddy's day of fun

Clare is working today, and her parents have gone out for the day so can't do their regular child care, so I have taken the day off to spend with Harry. So a full day of walking between cafes awaits, punctuated by picking up toys and a couple of chor...

Fridge man has been

We had a broken fridge, the man has been to fix it, it looks like the fan that blows air from the freezer to the fridge was all iced up. A good defrosting will help, though it seems to have got better now. Air had been getting in, as if the door had ...

John Lewis Bergerac Oak Sideboard

This is what I would buy, if I were not just about to move from a flat with huge rooms and lots of space to a townhouse with small rooms and no space. We have the smaller sideboard, it is very nice, should have held out for this huge version.Holiday ...

Day off

Had a lovely weekend, and it's still not over yet. To fit round our childcare I'm taking a day off today, so Harry and I are going to sing and sign later. I have some homework to do, have not been since I last had a monday off, long time now...I saw ...

Great long weekend

Took a day's holiday Friday because of the snow, as working from home with Clare and Harry around was harder work than I'd thought, so had a super long weekend. Snow was lovely while it was here, apart from a few minutes out in it with Harry I did no...

Where did that eleven day holiday go?

Lawks have had ten days off in a row, and day eleven is fast disappearing too, back to work tomorrow!Spending the day doing DIY and decorating, going to finish the kitchen at last. Second coat of white paint is going on a lot better than the first. Y...

Back better

Had a terrible day with my back yesterday, still not sure what I did at the weekend but it was crippling on Monday, so I didn't go to work. The day was not a complete loss though, Clare was at work and Harry still went to Granny and Grandpa's as usua...

Day off, christmas has now started!

I'm home today and starting to get in to the christmas spirit. Have not actually started on the sherry yet, because I took Clare to work so have the car, and have to drive again later, bah. Been to Toolstation to get a new outside light with PIR (inf...

Up above the streets and houses

Went for my regular lunchtime walk today (4000 steps, 2600 aerobic) without a coat today as it looked lovely. It started to turn when I was nearly at the half way point so I turned it in to a bit of a run. Still got absolutely drenched on the way bac...
