Another early morning, another day at work. I actually thought of something new to say about the call-centre today, though. Every time a call comes through I’m reading the paper on-line and get a beep in my ear and a … Continue reading
Had a three hour day at work today, so had the chance to get some chores done, including a haircut. When I got back home to doze on the sofa watching the Simpsons I found the girls back from their … Continue reading
