My newt pales into insignificance, chosen the new carpet for the sitting room this morning.

Everything counts, Mrs. J.

....there was so much mud this morning, over my welly clad ankles on my walk with Jess, that it took a massive 1 hour 53 instead of as little as 1.20. That's new! We also had to go round a large fallen tree in the woods. There was much evidence of the current storms as well as may signs of spring. Proper Primroses!

I have washed and dried our bedlinen, put it away, and brought out another set that has sheep on it because there are lots of newt spring lambs in the fields.

Well done Linds, great pics. Lol at "brought their kid to work"! Awww. Def approve of NOT putting pressure on yourself to catch up or even generally not to "own" the overwork load. That's part of the problem that management and board of the institutions need to solve. Not you as an individual. Do your 9-5 diligently, which I'm sure you do, giving your high intelligence and excellent experience, which I'm sure you do, and that is the end of your obligation. Not to fix the the whole backlog and system. Oops, rant! (That's not a NewT - I rant all the time!) :-) G

Diverge elite E5 gravel bike. Been looking for ages. I’ve just reduced my work hours so I needed an extra bike to ride on my extra day off :)

About This Thread

Maintained by Sharkie
Most of you know the score. Much in the bizarre way Easter has come to mean Chocolate, Lent is mainly thought of as an opportunity to Give Up Chocolate. At least until Easter. You know what I mean, 'What are you giving up for Lent?' * I say NO to this. Away with the hair shirts and the deprivation. Let's embrace change and the NEW. Spring is a time of renewal - and restoration.

Soooooo..... you don't have to take up indoor sky diving like my partner's 90 year old mot...
