Stupidly busy at work at the moment

Yea me too, I've only had 2 days off since 3rd of Jan, and I'm supposed to be semi retired!

I'm going to have a look at the papers in a minute, I've switched to my tablet and I've a newspaper app on it. At least this is occupying my mind and has stopped me going over my day in fine detail, something that is annoying and unnecessary as it was a good day yesterday.

I fell back to sleep and slept through the radio going on.... just been looking at the weather forecast and even if I'm not awake now I will be when I step outside!

Just to update you and depending on which date I pick I have 444 or 381 working days left to go.

Sniffing acetone before 8am, one of life's little pleasures.

It was nice to see some blue sky in the morning for a change.
The wind was sounding like an express train yesterday and making our doors bang and rattle.

Morning all, glorious sun rise this morning but it is supposed to pour again this afternoon. We bought the ferrets in last night as it was getting windy and we always worry the enclosure might go over, They looked very cute this morning all curled up together.

decided discretion was the better part of valour ( or stupidity) and took the public omnibus to work today. My usual 35 min ride home yesterday took 50 mins against the very strong headwind!

You'd have liked a job where I worked in 1980, Austen Chemicals, an adhesive factory that made glues for the shoe trade. They had 3 'petrol pumps' inside the factory which were used to fill one of the 4 500gallon 'churns' that then had the resin added. The pumps were Toluene, MEK (Methyl Ethyl Ketone) and Acetone (Ethyl Ethyl Ketone) fed from underground tanks that held 1000's of gallons.

BTW this factory was in the middle of Enderby (across the road from the Co-op) if there had ever been an 'incident' there it would have decimated the middle of the village (Health 'n' Safety was if you got a good whiff of the hot vapour then go and stand outside for half an hour until your head cleared a bit) there was also a Garage/Filling Station and a coach depot (Pams Coaches) both of which had large underground fuel tanks within 100yds.

It is a bit chilly out there. Just been checking things on the car, I may have to put a boilled egg in the radiator as the water was a bit low. I suspect the water pump as I cannot see any hoses leaking.
