Packing

It’s my last day at work this year, before I go home to France for Xmas tomorrow with Phil. I left a little early, but hey at least I turned up unlike most of the people. The last payment day was yesterday so I won’t get paid until after January 3rd now, that’s due to having to wait for the bloke to sign my timesheet.

The fog is ridiculous at the moment, I very much doubt if my flight would go ahead tomorrow, and I expect the M25 will be crawling.

Thursday

I’m driving home with Phil on Saturday due to iffy flights because of the fog. I can park my car at Stansted and fly back there after Xmas, so all will be good.

Phil and I have been doing the last-minute dashes to Halfords, Tesco etc.

Mr Frosty

It’s stupidly cold today. I had to de-ice the car this morning and again tonight! I could even feel the cold through the windows are work – and that’s with a polo and jumper on…..

I’m doing the washing tonight as it will dry on the hot radiators ready for packing to go to France in 2 days 🙂

Work was busier today as I had to test a new server and I added an encrypted filesystem to my laptop.

Bad films

I’ve watched a few movies lately, namely:

Silent Hill, a crappy zombie-ish flick based on a computer game.

I’ll Always Know What You Did Last Summer, which probably should be known as “I still haven’t done this franchise to death”. The fisherman comes back for a third try, with a disappointing ending.

Flightplan, which should probably be called “Panic Room On A Plane” as it’s Jodie Foster being a bad mother again and fighting the bad guys single-handed.

Thursday

I do like weekly pay! Last week’s wages have just cleared my bank and I’m Emailing this week’s invoice off for payment MWAHAHAHA!

Work was a bit boring today – probably because I got straight into it and did my tasks this morning by about 10am, as I set the server etc up last night. I actually left before 5pm today, I can’t believe it. I might install Oracle 10g on Solaris 10 under VMWare or something crazy tomorrow.
