    I didn't see that docudrama in the listings until two thirds of the way through :( sad to see early onset of his problems like that, and amazing that he managed to cope with reading the lines on the 10th anniversary.

    Bristol sounds good, kissjenn! Or is it too taken up with appointments?

    Hi KC,

    I think I'll be locked up in an office for most of the two days and airports at either end. My team are there all week but I'm trying desperately to get away from doing that unless it's absolutely do or die...and given how badly it affects me sometimes, it can feel like "die".

    Husky's walked and friend coming round for his fish and chips. 6 pieces of haddock were £17. Fish used to be the cheap option :eek:

    Freezing cold up here. Ice on the grass at 3:30pm, think tonight may be chilly.

    KJ

    Cheers KC.

    Well today has been grand so far. Went to Anstruther with choir ladies today, Just back from that and full of excellent fish and chips. There was an art exhibition on in some of the houses so we went for a nosey...very nice things, very expensive for "spur of the moment " purchases so maybe best I don't live closer and pop back lol.

    Ladies kindly bought me lunch for taking me there which was very kind and unexpected. So only spend £2.20 on a coffee and some water.

    Tonight is Dr Who. SB is getting more and more excited. We'll be off soon so hoping I can recall which card I bought the tickets on so we can get it.

    I hope everyone else enjoys the Who Fest.

    Thanks Lou,

    We're not long back.

    Well Dr Who was fab. Very glad we went to see at the cinema and lots of nice in jokes. Took SB for dinner and he was positively glowing. He's downstairs watching wrap parties and documentaries he'd taped. It's wonderful watching someone happy to their very core.

    Really like Anstruther. Walked along to Cellardyke to look at the open-house studios.

    All in all an excellent day.

    Also found out that The Great Tapestry of Scotland is on display near here so need to go and see that.

    Bristol trip done. Bad morning for yuckiness but it cleared after about 3 hours in the office. Managed 11 hour shift then airport. Felt terrible on the plane but Easy Jet really looked after me...so huge kudos to them.

    Working from home tomorrow so hopefully my mojo will return :j

    glad you have had some good days out. Sorry to hear that you have been so poorly when you were away. But big thumbs up to the airline for looking after you. Nice to hear a good story like that for once.
    I want a job that is less than an hour driving away from my house! Are you listening universe?
