    Morning all

    2 kids off sick today, I feel dodgy but I won't give in.

    Window cleaners have been.

    Dusty has a fluffy cat
    around it's neck there is a mane
    it followed her to school today
    to drive her more insane.

    Bl00dy stupid animal.

    Right as I'm now here all day I will be flying to my best ability.

    Staring with a HHC 09:45-10:15 to find the floor in OH office
    The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair
