I should be getting more salary yes, but mainly Ill be meeting colleagues, which is severely lacking at the moment.

Apparently one of my new colleagues is the most heavily tattooed man in Romania. Each to their own I suppose...

Weekend, finally, after exhausting six unfortunate individuals with all the tedious ins and outs of our aged computer system...

Back at teaching six lovely people and I'm already exhausted :D

Just noticed the last news item on the front page of the Goose is 10 years old. Happy 10, Last News Item!

Been totally frozen over for like the last 10 days. Can't wait to go back to the office, so I can work near the heater.

Weekend, hurray! Went to the office today and was chuffed to find it was 22 degs C there - I'm at home with 17 max. I was prepared for a cold day and ended up wishing for some iced drinks.

Said goodbye to a colleague and gave part of the training on my own, which was neat.

It's not much of a promotion looking at the salary increase, but it'll give me a great stepladder if I want to leave here.

Absolutely, promotions always look good on the Curriculum Vitae.....

Speaking of the tattooed employees, occasionally we get variations of this guy looking for work.....Kiwi's love tattoos.....

Have attended a concert by the Genesis coverband The Musical Box which was quite a dynamite show (and a bit of nostalgia for us old folks of course). They played the lamb lies down on broadway album using the original slide show that Genesis once had used (Peter Gabriel attended one of their shows with his children to demonstrate them how his yesteryears were). I shot lots of pics with my smartphonecam, most of them are out of focus. Put a few of the better ones together. Encores were the musical box and watcher of the skies. They announced to come back in 2024 with selling england by the pound - any progfan should see them!

Nice! Good to hear!

It's been since Jan 2020 I last visited a concert, and that was a let-down.

Happy Zappadan everybody!

I don't think I'll be aiming for the full collection - my job no longer allows for much music listening on the go, plus I'll be having a vacacion in a week's time - but I'll get as much listening as I feel like.

Bonny, why are you not getting more than 17 degrees at home? Is your heating broken down?

It does but I had to negotiate pretty heavily to get it up to 17 with my dad, who believes 15 is enough. Even if it kills all the plants in the house.

Anyway, it's pretty harsh trying to get the computers to work at the office - I'm at war with every single one of them.

Stupid tile floor, I broke my favorite breakfast bowl the other day,
the last of an ancient set belonging to my parents,
been through thick and thin for maybe 70 plus years and then,
during an uncoordinated attempt at immobilising a suddenly appearing
medium sized cockroach that was strolling along a pot plant vine,
whilst simultaneously putting the bowl on the bench.....
Stupid tile floor.....

We're deep in talks regarding when to commence our Christmas/New Year 22/23 Zappadan.....
FZ's birthday, the first day of the holidays, which is the 23rd/24th this year or Christmas day.....
There was even some loose talk about December 1st or the anniversary of FZ's death,
both of which are now moot.....

Myself, I want to get started ASAP.....
