Certainly was rather FROSTY this morning. In work since 7. Supposed to be looking at a bike for my wife tonight, but she's not well and like a bear with a sore booty - so I better not mention it - will have to re-schedule for early next week.

The dog slept with me last night! Had lots of chores to do before work this morning (woke up at 5, got out of bed at 5:15!) definitely shouldn't have snoozed for 15 minutes! Rushed to get to work! Should be an easy-ish day...hour for lunch to go home and see dog then back to work and back home later for a big dog walk over the park and relaxing evening making my own pizza and watching The Bay from yesterday

Well yesterday's 'restructuring' meeting didn't go anything like as well as our line manager was expecting. There are 4 people for 7 jobs, 5 of which are at a 'higher grade' - worth about £100 a month - so not really better.
Our jobs are being 'dis-established'. So we've got to apply or not have a job. Two of my colleagues are likely to just apply for their current role, and not a higher grade. Me and another colleague HAVE to apply for a higher job. You know what, it's still the same job, but as I've been here a very long time, I did explain that it will be very difficult to drop jobs that aren't on this 'yet unseen' job description, especially due to 'others' not doing their job. I also asked, what if we felt we would be 'unable' to do the new role. My line manager looked somewhat taken back, and HR just butted in saying 'oh we'd discuss that at consultation'.
It's actually spurred me and the other colleague (who is on a temp contract) to look for new jobs. Just applied for two jobs this morning, exactly what I do now, but £10k-£20k higher. The grass is greener !
They are going to have no-body - what fools.

Lovely frosty start, lost 4lbs since I decided to de_fat about 2 weeks ago.
Gave up belvita biscuits . Load of tosh advertisements from a fat actor..
Another boring week at work, nothing doing, i hate it when everything works and the gardens are ok.. This is when I miss being my own boss.. I could go for a few hrs biking .

I'n it wet ? Well , it is here!
In other news , I have been out to collect a parcel from the Post Office. It was a replacement that I decided I needed to replace the one that a useless postage service lost !
It was undamaged and all intact when I opened it up. I am very pleased with it!
It is now sitting in our display cabinet . Vroom vroom !
