That is very generous of you, but I think you'll find that West Devon sorry Cornwall has begun to develop trading links with the rest of Britain, and probably has a few jars of capers and some plastic bags already. Gifts like this though will help pacify the hostile natives.
Thanks for the heads-up. I'll be bringing an angle grinder, cutting discs, a few synthetic slates, hole saws, polyurethane foam, compression fittings, solvent weld cement, pipe fittings and lots more. Will the natives welcome me and give me bags of Cornish gold nuggets?

I am on the early shift today....6:15am start to 2:15pm finish. I got into bed just before 9pm, couldn't sleep till 11pm, woke up at 2:15 and then struggled to get back to sleep till 4am - up at 5 to get ready and stuff for 6:10am.

Overall around 4 hours sleep. This is the first terrible night in a while - it has really knocked me off and I am irritable already and I have only been here an hour :sad: thank god for decent make up.....

Synthetic slates! To Cornwall?! What are you thinking? The locals will probably hurl them off the nearest cliff.

My commiserations, Charlotte. Insomnia is awful. If this is as a result of your working hours, then I would seriously look at changing jobs to one with more normal hours. If not, speak to your doctor. Insomnia isn't good for you.

This is just a one off I'm hoping, I was quite uncomfortable with my tight hip flexors etc (which I am getting fixed) and allergies. My last weeks sleep has been really good. I am usually fine - this is genuinely a one-off. I love early shifts as I can get into work and out by 2:30 and get out running or on the bike

Are we going to hear about this in the news next week?

I cycled to work for the first time in ages. In fact, since I lost my portable phone charger. Of course I bought a new one which is in the post and then I found it at the bottom of the front pocket of my rucksack. The rucksack is only used for my clothes and lunchbox on commutes!

Always good to have a spare, I have a big chunky one so I am desperate to find a smaller slimmer one. Even if it can only do one charge.
