    I am usually away for most of the winter, don't think this year will be any different. Not much chance of an urgent contract keeping me here or bringing me back either

      Step back, have a think and adjust my own own attitude from time to time

        From late Oct / early Nov if things go to plan.



        How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

          According to the "widget" my kids installed on my phone there are still 186 days to go.

          I can barely work out what I'm going to be doing this evening let alone in 186 days time.

              I usually start planning Christmas on 24th December. If the shops were open, I'd wait until the morning of the 25th
