I’m looking forward to 010107 when the silly season officially draws to a close and working hours go back to a normal 20 hours a week. Sixteen hour days aren’t my idea of fun no matter how much money is involved. I have at least another two weeks of this kind of madness before things start to ease off or I drop dead… whichever comes first. Nah… it’s not really that bad but bad enough to need help if only it would carry on beyond December. Chance would be a fine thing and so I do the work of 2½ people on a short week rather than complicate life by hiring in temporary help. Besides, it’s impossible to find somebody who can do the job without training.

This evening I get to relax with a bottle of Spanish plonk and a plateful of steak. Yay!

I’m extremely perturbed to hear of your predicament, those long hours must play havoc with your social life. Will you be having an office Christmas party this year? Now I’d volunteer to help but after checking with British Airways and Air Lingus, I’ve found out just how difficult it would be to commute from Egypt each day, especially over the festive period. So i’ll just stretch out on the sun lounger near the pool, sunning myself with an extra large cocktail handy just in case I feel the need to errmm … toast someone .. and well ….. generally enjoy myself..
anyone up for a game of petanque ?

Aye it’s great… I’m not really complaining just explaining the absense. The only reason I’m doing it … I already owe the money… lol :D
