Reading

In work today where it seems that one of the bods who failed to show for an entire week has in fact done a runner of sorts. Not heard from him or nothing, not a dickie bird, even the agency he came through can't get hold of him. Weird in a way because when I gave him a lift to the station last Friday he seemed ok, wasn't complaining or nothing like that. In fact the only remark he did make which seemed a little out of the ordinary was that "He was the loser of the family". I guess then maybe his self esteem has gotten the better of him and he's moved off to different waters. Well I hope thats the case and he's not done something stupid.

Anyway, I pop out at lunch time and go to the bank to pay some money in, and also go to the book shop to get a copy of Charlie and the Chocolate factory. The different endings in both of the films have left me somewhat confused to the actual ending, and since I can't remember the book from when I read it way back when I thought I'd refresh my memory. I also got Boy by Roald Dahl, after Phils recommendation. Ample reading for me then to keep me occupied.

I also try to arrange some shipping of stuff to some friends, but with little success as I didn't realise I need the exact dimensions of the boxes I was sending. So I'll have to sort that out another time.

The afternoon flies by with me plenty occupied with a humongous document of changes to one of the websites we maintain. I've got say, I think the site is probably more confusing now than it was before. Oh well, not my site, not my call.

When I get home I set about making a roast dinner, we haven't had one in ages and TBH, I quite like my roast potatoes, so to indulge in them was very satisfying.

An earlish night follows, but I do manage to watch Silent Witness before I fall asleep. Handy, cos I quite like the series :)
