I haven't blogged for a while, and I put that down to extreme laziness.

Perhaps the most remarkable thing that happened this month is that the payroll went so well - we finished two days ahead of schedule and the total errors discovered after pay day was two. Me and JH are arguing over a possible third, unfortunately the boss agrees with them.

I've also started a short story, which I may or may not finish in time to submit; or maybe by that time I will develop an extreme form of my disease - the one which doubts my ability.

SOH hasn't been well for nearly two weeks now and he almost refused to go to the fireworks Saturday night.

Actually, we both shouldn't have bothered. Usually the fireworks are well organised and good fun, however, this year they blocked the road off too late so the car parks were full, so pedestrians had to run the gauntlet with the traffic; the 'gates' were poorly organised so that people could walk in without paying; the fireworks lasted barely 10 minutes, which is disgusting, most displays last at least 20 and the kids were really disappointed, as was I.

C'm'on Abergele Round Table, you've done a lot better than that.

Well who'd have thought my profession could be 'emergency' huh? Well, that's what happened to our temp today, having been to the interview yesterday, starts a new short term contract job on Monday.

And another one bites the dust.

Me and JH, been there, seen it, done it, and no parole for good behaviour.
