I'm almost a Veteran Cosmic Rocker

If music means something to you, then what do you do when something doesn’t click. This week I downloaded the new Marillion album, number 15 for those of you that are counting, and it has not licked, what makes it worse is the fact that another new album I have got is Long Distance Voyager, by the Moody Blues and it has just clicked. I love Veteran Cosmic Rocker, and 22,000 Days, they are tracks that grab you straight away, were as nothing from the new Marillion album has grabbed me, to be fare I have only listened to 5 tracks, but that in its self is because I get 20 minutes from the office and put 22,000 Days.

Today was one of those days were you finish everything you had on your list, I thought that was just a legend put about by local government staff who never have enough to do. So what is a real days work (pay attention all you LG slackers!), so we start with 15 emails, then move on to a 121 for a staff member at risk, move on to a tech review of site issues, and then onto Elections Strategy (Gordon you should have been there), more emails, a review of the FD’s work to check it is right (Why cant they count!), then a re-structure and job definition meeting. Emails in inbox at the start of the day 19, emails at the end of the day 21, emails processed 62. Then a gentle drive home (inc a brief 80 – 120 spurt) and a relaxing evening watching tele and looking for a holiday location.

All this means that the laptop stays closed until Sunday afternoon when I need to finish the forecast Q3 variance, and the S&M review. That’s right I have been given the task of driving out maximum benefit from S&M, the sad news is I don’t get a leather allowance!

This weekend looks like being relaxing, we have another home game, where we may see our new left back, we have bought two in 3 weeks, why???? We have a GP, where my boy will take the lead in the championship race.

Final a message to Lizsara who is performing at the Orange Wedding, go girl, just remember, Do hurt yourself!
