Well, this isn't what I expected! It's not the sandy beaches and palm trees that adorn my notice board of destinations and special offers that I'd hoped for, but it IS away from my desk, and I feel like I've been slaving since March when I joined my new team, so anything that involves getting away from there is most welcome.
I am officially the legal guardian of my 14 year old nephew for the week, whilst his mum, step dad and brothers take a break on coast near Devon, At 14, holidaying with parents is "trés uncool!" So my sister had a word in my ear and asked me to move in for the week.
It was non stop Xbox'ing yesterday, hence my need for the 'plug and play kit' mentioned in my earlier blog, Tonight, we've stocked up on crisps, chocolate, fizzy drinks and haribo and the little fella from down the road is kipping over too!
Sadly though, work is never too far from my mind, I'm sat here with my pager next to me on the sofa and half eaten bag of haribo, I usually long for the overtime but this week I really won't mind if the pager stays nice and quiet ......anyway pass me that controller, it's my go! :)
