eiffel_71Still hawking up the odd bit of gilbert but the worst seems over, fingers crossed.
At work this afternoon we had the surreal experience of taking down the Christmas decorations. Health & Safety strike again - they'd been unable to stomach the prospect of the paper chains, tree and bells staying up in a vacant office for a week and a half. And as I'm the only male in tomorrow, and the ladies had persuaded us men that we couldn't be so ungallant as to leave them to do any of the heavy work of taking decs down, Phil, Ray and I got down to the job today. When we'd finished Liz said she felt sad - "the place looks bare now, Christmas is over". But as only a handful of us are coming in tomorrow, there were a lot of "Merry Christmas" wishes as people said goodbye, together with several '"See you next year"s'.
