And that’s why I don’t like cricket…

I bought my tickets to New York last night, I can’t wait. Off for 2 whole weeks, hopefully get some sunshine, read some books, see some sights, eat some bagels. OOoooooOOOOo.

It was grey and cold this morning but now the sun has come out and less than an hour til I leave work… one of the senior staff gave me a cornetto ‘cos I carried a box of mugs upstairs. I had a nice curry for lunch and I’ve been [...]
