Christmas in 20 days

I suppose I should buy some cards and stamps soon, shopping in Nottingham last week and enjoying a mug or two of Gluehwein put me in the festive mood and some pictures of the lights are below.

Saw the Bond film last night, not bad! I knew the girl wouldn't survive as soon as Bond said "I love you".

I was sent by my boss to Sheffield this morning with a colleague for a 20 minute meeting. It kept me out of the office all morning as we caught the train which was slow as usual. I got back to work at half one and to an email query from my boss as to why I hadn't got any work done - need to work on my being in two places at once. Ah, the joys of work. I keep reminding myself that they have to pay me to be there and that I wouldn't do it for free. Smartarse clients who know a tiny bit of law are also fun - spending half an hour explaining that it is their fault they have been charged interest by a developer because they did not send me the purchase funds in time is always a great use of my day. Maybe tomorrow will be better. At least the office is closed for the Christmas week so a respite is coming.
