Next week was supposed to be my last week working 40 hours a week and then I would go on a 2 day/week schedule until the end of the year and then retire again. Today I got some overtures that they would like me to continue on a 40/hour week schedule until the end of the year. I kinda hate to say no as I am aware of the 'technical review" work that they need me to perform. Undecided!!!
poppy, don't you dare say I told you so.
Oh Muggles, you are incorrigible

Clive Dunn, best known for playing Lance-Corporal Jones in Dad's Army, has died at age 92. One of comedy's most loved characters. We'll miss you Jonesy

Mr Chartwell by Rebecca Hunt.
A story based on Winston Churchill's depression which he referred to as his 'Black Dog' and who takes on the form of a real live, talking dog.
A most unusual book, based on a premise that should make it unbelievable, but which works very well. At times very funny, but with an undercurrent of unease running throughout. I disliked 'Black Pat' intensely, I didn't find him the least bit charming as some suggest, but loved the other characters, they were remarkably well drawn.
A very good read.
