Good morning and Happy Friday. I’m working from home today which is awesome because I was able to have a bit of a lie in. I also needed a break from trains. This will be quite short as I’m writing it after spending seven hours on trains. I’ve never worked out why I find sitting on trains so tiring but I’m feeling shattered. Only getting…
When this blog is published I’ll hopefully have made it to the Exeter office. If I’m still on a train when this goes live I have a problem as my meeting started at 10:00. So, what did I get up to on Day 19 of Juneathon? Did I avoid the rain? Did I have any train related issues? Did I run? Did I have an…
More observant people may have noticed I’ve updated my blog header. My long term aim – knowing me this will be in 2020 – is to go self-hosted and to get myself a slightly more presentable theme. I was just about to use the blog migration service offered by Pipdig when it all got a bit heated online. I’ve said it before, but sometimes being…
Good morning and happy Tuesday. Trains permitting, I’ll be in the office squinting at my laptop screen when this blog is published. If I’m having a really good day, my new work phone will have been delivered. Juneathon Day 17 got off to a positive start as I’d remembered to switch off my 05:30 alarm. This meant that I didn’t wake up until 08:30 so…
Good afternoon, sorry for publishing two blogs in one day. Normal service will soon resume. I’ve not been in the office today so I’ve been ticking off loads on my ‘things to do list’. So, what did I get up to on Day 16 of Juneathon? Not much, so this Juneathon update will be shorter than usual. I spent the morning blitzing the house; it…
I hope that everyone had an amazing weekend; my weekend was a little gloomy at times as I said a final farewell to Wallingford. As it’s a few weeks since I published my wake-up call post I thought I’d share a progress report on my healthier eating and drinking. If you’ve been following my Juneathon updates you will have noticed that pubs and restaurants have featured…
Good morning, I hope you are having a good weekend. What happened to the sunshine? I’ve noticed that in Four Oaks it tends to be sunny enough first thing to wake me up and get me out of bed. The sun then waits until I’ve had a shower and then disappears. I suspect I’m over thinking this as it’s not like the sun knows what…
Good morning. When this blog is published I will hopefully be en route to Wallingford. I am little disappointed I couldn’t make my local parkrun as I was invited to take part in a photo shoot. Hopefully there will be other opportunities. The people of Birmingham need to see my cheesy grin and double chin. After a discussion with my line manager earlier this week…
I’m writing this after a fun filled post-meeting couple of hours in Birmingham. One of the few perks of living in Birmingham is getting to have a lie in on the day of National meetings. Much as I felt some sympathy for my colleagues based a long way from Birmingham, I appreciated the extra sleep. Getting to the meeting on Broad Street was quite difficult.…
I managed to mess up my scheduling – it’s time I knew the difference between 10:00 and 22:00 – so this is a little later than originally planned. I’m sure you’ll all be pleased to know that I’ve sussed out my optimal morning train; the 06:32 to Birmingham New Street was six carriages long and was virtually empty. If the train from Birmingham Moor Street…
