Will somebody please slow down the clock. I've been off work since 24 December and I've loved it all but time today is just going by way too fast. I'm dreading going back to work tomorrow and tonight I feel like ........ as the title says.
According to the ever insightful Daily Mail tomorrow is officially the most depressing day of the year.
So the upside is get tomorrow over with and it's back onto easy street.
Excuse sparse post tonight. Off downstairs to drown my sorrows on half a bottle of wine left over from tea yesterday.
I'll just say manyana then.

Penultimate Day Off Work
It's been a bit of a We Are The Boro day, well at least until I read the football score, Boro 0 - Hull City 2. Who cares, for now at least.
Mike and Lore did the Albert Park 5K run this morning. My only regret is that I didn't join them. I would have loved watching them anyway but it was all the more satisfying because both of them did really well running great times. Lore now lives in Sheffield but is from Brussels, she seemed to really enjoy the run and that gave me a bit of a buzz on behalf of Middlesbrough.
Gary has been doing the run for sometime and has suggested that I might like it and he's right. I haven't ran 5000 metres since I did The Great North Run in 1981 and although there are logistical reasons why I won't be able to do it regularly I've got to have a go soon. It is just a fantastic "feel good" community event. Just download your bar code, print it off and off you go.
After the run we went out for a late breakfast. They tucked into full English but I just had a coffee as I still had to go to the gym. Jeez my swim today was depressing after that.

Better late than never - 8 years and 1 day old.
Had a busy day yesterday. Brigitte and I went over to South Gare after dark to take some photos of our industry in full flow and then I went for a drink with Michael and his girlfriend. Ouch! Only 1 more night allowed in January and it's only on the 3rd of the month
South Gare was surprisingly busy with lots of cars coming and going. To be honest we had our suspicions when 3 nearby parked cars sped off when we took our cameras out and the quickest of Google searches confirmed what was probably going on. Excuse short-break while I delete my browsing history.
The wind was really strong and was blowing our tripods all over so our photos were generally crap but here are a few that I think are ok.
2 more sleeps and then back to work. Bugger. It's been some break though.

The New Look
As usual my technical deficiencies meant it took me longer than it should have (the photos in the sidebar were the problem) but I'm pretty happy with the result.
That'll have to be it for the night. Will post to celebrate my 8th birthday tomorrow.
