I had the first week of the month off actually but didn't travel anywhere, there had been a bug going around at work and it chose to get me just as I had free time, most of the week was spent on sofa watching numerous downloaded movies from the golden age of Hollywood - a lot of my 2TB harddrive is taken up by them- and playing hidden object PC games that are becoming quite an obsession.
The following two weeks were spent not doing much at work, it has been a quiet time but judging by yesterday things are starting to get busy again, going in today for what will probably be a short shift, then I can prepare for tonight's new year celebration, probably in the pub. Will be glad to see this year gone, even Christmas was the worst ever due to a variety of reasons, and petty "family" politics, still at least 3 hours of Christmas day were good- at the raffle in the Auld Hoose. Didn't win much, just 6 beers and a bottle of rose, was a good laugh though. Then I went down to mine and downed a bottle of champagne.Adding to my non-festive feeling was a hospital appointment on the 29th and had to starve myself for a day and a half and drink the most god awful stuff I wouldn't wish on anyone. I got through it though, glad it's behind me. So come on 2014, let's be having you! Here a couple of photos, one at Xmas market, the other with Davie specs in pub.
PS hope Schumacher survives his head injury, he made F1 watchable back then and I always wanted him to lose, not this time though.
