I'm not inspired by the running either! It's supposed to happen at nine tomorrow when I'd sooner be warm and snug. I was working in dublin yesterday and there was a snow flurry with massive flakes then the fritters were out on the drive home. Note to self, get car service booked.
Was out for an overdue dinner with friends last night. £20 inc tip and was good to catch up. Apart from that, there's little time for anything bar work at the present. Will have a full day in the office today but that'll be the last for the next week or so. Will probably need to get some groceries in today to avoid venturing to supermarkets at the weekend and facing the influx of RoI shoppers due to the strength of the euro.
