Well, yesterday, Rod and I planned a day off work but, as usual, I got a deluge of 'very urgent' requests.....which, in my opinion would not have been urgent if people planned their work a little better. I do not like to let people down but nor do I like the (over the years) frequent requests for me to work on a day off, weekend or Bank Holiday. To some extent this goes with the job and, if planned and agreed, I do not have an issue with it.
Before I had received these 'urgent' requests and in order to make it a pleasant day, Rod and I went off to the New Forest for a walk with Lucy. Unfortunately, we found the road closed near to our destination. Not to be defeated we tried another road but came across a rather deep looking ford so decided to turn around. The New Forest was extremely wet after all the rain and, as we did not have our wellingtons or flippers with us, decided to go back home and walk from there.
I finally started work at 9pm and worked until 11pm when I decided to stop so I would not disturb Rod. I was up again at 6am today to complete the job only to find I had no access to the systems. Eventually they woke up and I finished at 8:15am.
