That's cool. I can only do Friday afternoons though so they'll all be rush jobs I'm afraid.

Feeling chuffed today.

Got one of those letters from BT saying I was out of contract and paying too much for things, so went online and checked. £60pm ..... 60 fooking pounds a month.

Now that does cover line rental, broadband, and BT sport.

A 30 minute phone call and that bill is now halved for the same service, except I will also be getting BT TV HD with sky sports included. Which is better than the non-hd channel I was getting on sky.

Stumbling around my house half asleep this morning and walked into a door frame and gave myself a blood nose.

Found out at 4.30 yesterday that I'm doing a hearing this morning in Northampton. It's only about 60 miles away but with the traffic and poor parking it'll take me about 2 hours to get to court. What makes it worse is that this is a short hearing which should have been done by telephone.

Hearing was a waste of time. Took all of 10 minutes.

Going to take some work home with me for this afternoon and slob out.
