Okay, so my trip to work lasted about three minutes

[andrewducker]

I live on a side-street off a side-street. And it's _still_ noisy as hell from the wind out there. But, hey, you gotta go to work.

Until I wandered out onto the main road, a piece of metal blew past me at about 30 miles an hour, I had to struggle to stay upright from a constant stream of high-speed air, and then struggle back to my turning when I decided "Fuck this" and headed home again.

So I'm now using remote desktop to connect to the office so that I can find a phone number for a manager that I can tell I'm taking the day off.

Ok, so it looks like both my manager and my lead developer have the day off anyway. I shall take an impromptu one and get stuff done around the flat instead!

Aaaand, the Met Office have a Red warning over my flat:

Did you get your job application approved?

[andrewducker]

Got email from my practice manager telling me it was all fine.

I can't +1 or like this comment.

I do actually think that's a deficiency in LJ nowadays. I know that some people would complain about it, but the ability to say "I agree/I have heard you." is actually really handy.

Excellent. Is this more money, or merely (merely!) more interesting stuff?

[andrewducker]

Hopefully both :->

bloody hell! it's not so bad here - but wet and windy nonetheless. Good day to stay in (except we are going out for dinner tonight!)

For some reason I never thought of Scotland as being windy. I like how the map ignores Ireland, even though it's right there.

[andrewducker]

Well, it includes Northern Ireland, cos it's part of the same country. You'd think that Ireland would be interested in doing a deal of some kind!

*srs face* also it's a clicky map, so you can click on a UK county and get more detail on the weather there. Ireland is a seperate country and not covered by Met Office. SO THERE I HAS ALL THE ANSWRS

Maybe Ireland isn't having any weather today :)
