For various reasons, including work holiday planning and also wanting to, I did my first day at work for the year today. I put it into two halves. There was the bit of the day where I went into the office, catching up on email and generally seeing what was what. Then there was the bit of the day where I came home and worked from there. The reason I did that was because it gave me a chance to have lunch with my girlfriend, who then went off to paint my house for me (that's nice... and very good value), and also put us near enough the public transport to get to our night's activity...

... which was going to see the amazing Bill Bailey. I've not seen him do stand-up live for a few years. It was brilliant fun watching him at a big theatre, and some of his stuff made me roar with laughter. I do like Mr B.
