Had a letter from the hospital today - it turned out that my personal data, along with that of over 4500 others (name, birth date, patient file number
and hospital speciality) has been out to see for people who don't have permission, for 33 days. There will be something on the TV about it tonight and
the hospital installed a special number - that could be reached on three days only: specifically the 23rd, 24th and 25th. Website doesn't have any
information.

Whelp, I'm set up for the microwave tomorrow...
On Wednesday I bought Bulky yarn, extra thick yarn that I had to buy 10mm needles for. But it was cheap, good quality and a great colour, so I got 3
balls weighing 200g each. I'm making a Celtic sweater with it.
The front of the sweater is finished, but it took almost one whole ball of yarn, meaning 3 balls of yarn is probably not going to be enough. Today I
cycled to 4 different shops that sell it, but they're all out.
F...

Interesting job Ned, I'm not sure I could handle it. Although I have had some pretty tough classes teaching high school.

Get better soon Mr Goat. How long did you have your last job? What's it like finding work in France at the moment?
Bonny, what happened to your MRI? Will you have to wait long for another appointment?

Well that was realy stupid - at some undefined moment in time, it got into my head that I needed to be there at 14:30 - I am kicking myself over not
checking the exact time of the appointment. At 12:10 I had a phonecall that I missed it, the appointment was at noon.

my last job lasted a
bit more than 2 years. Finding a job can be quite difficult depending on your profession, but I'm quite optimistic, I'm pretty good at what I do and
there's usually work for a good roofer, so we'll see.

Roofer? Do you use those screws with those disks around them, like I had to make when I was at WLB?
I'll be at the bottom of the waiting list again, so four to six weeks.

Aqua, were you working for a builder who had a downturn in building orders or something like that?
One of my cousins, who lives near Alençon, is in the building trade. I'm not exactly sure what his area of expertise is - carpentry, I think.
Bonny, the last time I missed an appointment was because the receptionist put the appointment in a week early and as I was sure I wouldn't forget the
correct date, I never checked the appointment letter. The time before that I had put the wrong time - later than the actual time - in my calendar app
and got the call asking where I was while I was getting ready to go.

hum, no, we just had an argument as to why the work wasn't finished yet which ended by me telling him rather
aggressively that if he wasn't happy he could do my job in my place, so he decided to put a term to my interim contract.

We had these lense-shaped plates (circles but with a round side) with a hole in the middle that we had to drill screws into. The supervisor told me
they were used to keep down plastic foil during roofing. I don't know what they're called and failed at finding a photo.

Went out twice for groceries today - the second time to buy bread. Turned out we still had some.
