That was the week that was

Here is the weekend again, and another bank holiday weekend for that.

( I hope that Englishjuls has a nice weekend away)

It has been one of those weeks that is best forgotten. Monday and Tuesday morning where OK, I suppose. Back to work after nearly two weeks off, and within a few hours it felt as thought I had never had any leave at all - that is the "normality" of things I suspect. Tuesday afternoon I started to feel "a little off it". The next 36 hours were awful. Pain and discomfort you would never wish on your worse enemy - again.

Yesterday, Friday, was down as a training day. And , although I wasn't (and still aren't) 100%, I felt fit enough to go over to Leeds (about 60 - 70 miles) for the day. It was alright. A refresher course on the Home Computer product. A couple of new bits. But it was almost a case of the usual.

Do this this way!

Do that, that way, and we will get a few more jobs done a day.

Bank holidays tend to be Garden/DIY days, and at Chez Smudger we try not to book the trend (as the previous comments on decorating will bear out) But I have noticed that, I suspect mainly due to the relatively wet weather in the last few days, the garden is being badly attacked by a Gastropodic Assassin

SNAILS

This year the little devils are everywhere, more so than the last few years at least. When I went out to the garage the other night, just after the rain had finished, the driveway was covered in snails. I've never seen the like. And they make me shiver, especially when you tread on one by accident.

UGH!!!!
