My Own Devices

The usual story for a Friday I'm afraid, with me being in work for the most part. It's not a particularly dull day what with several interviewees coming in to take the standardization test we give to most candidates who's CV past muster its just a shame that most of them fall at the last hurdle and either don't complete the test full stop, or don't complete the test and have made a dogs ear of it it, or those who do manage to finish the test but the end product is less than desirable.

So the steady stream of foreigners keeps things from getting dull, even though one of them looks most like he should be a psychopathic murderer rather than a programmer (it's all in the eyes you know). Needless to say then I wouldn't like to meet him in a dark alley on a stormy night.

At lunch time I nip out and go to the bank to order a new cheque book and paying in book and also drop into homebase to pick up some more plumbing olives that I use to display my cats eyes on. I pick up 15 just to be on the safe side, though from what I can gather I've just about collected all the colours that they make already so I may have no need for the excess stands after all. Oh well better to be safe than sorry.

This evening I am left to do what ever I fancy since Phil is out on a leaving do for an extra hour or 2 after he finishes work, so I just spend some time photoing more of the rock and mineral collection and the cats eyes. It's not too late when Phil gets back and we get pizza for tea.

Alas though it is another earlish night for both of us, Phil because he's ill and me well... just because.
