Last night, before we finished for the day, I asked two of the engineers: "Have you got everything for tomorrow? Cables etc?" both, desperate to leave said they had and that they'd checked.

They've just returned from site.

𝗠𝗲: "All finished?"
π—˜π—»π—΄π—Άπ—»π—²π—²π—Ώ: "We need a caddy for the SSD."
𝗠𝗲: "WHAT DID I ASK LAST NIGHT?"

FFS, that means two trips to site that comes out of my profit.

Yesterday we actually had some Finches in the gardens of we normally only get sparrows, starlings and bloody pigeons! I went to Pets at Home and bought some decent bird seed and a new feeder as the wife, and I was excited to attract something worthwhile finally, and the bastards never turned up this morning.

It's taken me all day to fit this bastard thing!

1st one left inlet, and I need right inlet, so a trip to B&Q

This one is still left inlet but does have the channel to connect from the right, so it's a trip to the hardware shop and Wilkos both fecking useless.

3rd trip out to Screwfix for 2x angled push connectors 1 x push connector to brass nut and a length of pipe fifteen feet long when I only need 1.5 feet!

Started at 10am and completed at 4pm Not a happy bunny

I bit the bullet and spent the last couple of hours faff-arsing around with a customer's WP website.

Only one issue left. For the love of The Pond Gods, I can't fathom out where the damn thing is picking up Lorem ipsum from on the Team Member element.

Sweet and mangoey. One of the worst zero alcohol beers I've tried. Not aley. Not pacific. Not beery. That'll teach me to try new things.

Typical!

All week I've brought my Bose speaker to work and have not had a chance to use it. Today, when I've left it at home, the building is like the Marie Celeste, and I could play Bowie to my heart's content.

@stufromoz Yup. I'm also feeling emotionally very bleh, due to stress and anxiety.
