Random photo day

It's been a beautiful day, with wonderful weather and not too much has gone wrong with work. Ahhh, I should probably savour this moment...

Desiree came round last night to see Clare and was very impressed with the floor I laid in the kitchen (see pic!), it was nice to see her and Clare was especially pleased.

Continuing the low cholesterol theme, Clare made a form of butter chicken curry - something I could handle every day - though the boiled potatoes weren't my favourite.


I had downloaded some movies and TV shows over the weekend so Clare & I settled down to bed early to watch them and snuggle. All in all, a very pleasant evening.

No massive headaches at work today either, one staff member not working hard enough but everyone else happy and productive. One out of 34 isn't bad odds. Lots of admin mini-hassles, and though I am still rubbish at administration, at least I can now delegate as a required part of the job. Heh heh.

Tomorrow's going to be a heavy one, up early and driving down to Wellington, working the day and then getting the train home because I've got to return the company car (I get an allowance so I shouldn't really have a car, but have managed to blag a succession for the last few months).

I haven't used public transport in NZ before so it should be interesting, definately going to beat travelling from Teddington to Gillingham by train anyway...


Got an e-mail from Sean White today, he's coming to NZ in 3 weeks!!

Have arranged for one of my clients to put him up (the Museum Hotel in Wellington - fantastic) if he wants because he's only supposed to be doing a tour of the South Island. As I said in my e-mail to him, if he's on this side of the world it would be rude not to meet up. It'll be nice to see Sean, I know the family have had some concerns with him over Grandads will but to me it doesn't matter so much. It's not as if it's a big shock. You know what you are getting with Sean, it's up to you whether you choose to use him. Besides, pairing Sean with Steve was a match made in an eternal waiting room.

Steve will be 40 in two weeks - absolutely amazing. Will likely always regret not being there with him to share a drink, though he claims that he wants a quiet one.
