Well another weekend nearly finished

Oh goodie - I can then start to enjoy my 3 days leave from work (have to use most of it up before January due to Brexit). With that & working from home, I only have to go in to the office for a total of 6 days before Christmas

I was woken at the unseemly hour of half past eight this morning by Network Rail doing yet more work on the line that runs a couple of hundred yards from my house. There was notification of the work a month ago, but it appears they got the location wrong by quite a bit!

It's been cold, but sunny with very little wind here all day, so add in coffee, a decent bike ride, bacon rolls and top it off with a couple of beers and it's been a very enjoyable day.

I can't go into the office until September as they've declared me 'vulnerable' so am working from home until then.

But ... with no teaching until late March and a lot of leave carried over I'm taking time off on warmer/drier Jan/Feb/Mar days.

I've recently listened to about five PG Wodehouse Audiobooks in a fairly short time and I've noticed it's affected how I write CC posts.

In what way exactly?

Do they know something, but don't want to say anything.

Is there anything worse than not being able to sleep when you want or need to?

yeah having to get up when you don't want to, but have to. Wifey says come to bed, so I'm going. I can't sleep when she's out of town

In what way exactly?

I've had to rewrite several because I was waffling even more than usual, and they sounded like a 1920's BBC announcer.

I've long known that I'm affected a lot by what I read, so if I read a certain style of writing I'd end up writing in the same way, which meant I had to be careful what I read when I was writing for work. I didn't realise the same happened when I was listening to stuff as well.

Getting wound up about it. When I can't sleep I often just get up, make a pot of tea, and settle into a sudoku session. Luckily, I can usually find time for a catch up nap later in the day so it's only a short deferral of sleep.
