The lady next door is learning the cello and plays it for hours a day in the room next to my office.
And she only knows La Marseillaise. It’s on repeat for hours, and not even played well.

I recommend a Bose Speaker, against the wall.

I wouldn’t want to inflict my music taste on anyone. 
Ooh a nice set of 901s
A bit of ELO played at max volume might do the trick?
So who drove to their Parent Station and drew a Service Vehicle to then drive to their Covid Vaccination?
RAFAC Announcement - Use of MoD Transport for Service Personnel to Attend COVID-19 Vaccinations
(I appreciate this will apply to regulars who have standard access to service vehicles, but having never told us we could, why tell us we now can’t)

Boss 1: Can you do a final review of this treaty? Your predecessor has already cleared it in principle but we need a final check before sending to ministers.
Me: Does a light touch review and don’t suggest changes that I would like but can live without.
Boss 2: Why haven’t you explicitly compared this section to the 5 similar treaties with other countries? You need to do that.
Me: Spends a day doing a deep dive into treaties and language before making minor changes to bring it in line with wording in other ones but which make no real substantive changes. Despite my predecessor already doing detailed advice on it.
Boss 1: Oh, your predecessor already did this. You didn’t need to do it again, only needed a quick look over. That was a waste of time.
The joys of having a jobshare boss when they don’t talk to each other and have very different philosophies on how work should be completed.

GMG. Haglunds deformity and having to cut up a brand new pair of Salomons - but not quite getting it right. Queue the epic blisters. Yay. Not yay.
Ah, the beauty of being at the self employed bar.

Though at least I get regular pay each month and don’t have to put up with solicitors “forgetting” to pay me
That’s half the fun! (it’s also much better than it was a few years ago, and Covid seems to have finally killed off being paid by cheque.)
On that subject, I received an email last week about a family law case (which I gave up about 3 years ago now,) finally paying me. The email cryptically referred to the widely reported events which followed my representing the chap explaining why I hadn’t been paid. A not insubstantial google revealed that he’d abducted the child, fled to Mexico and was arrested returning to Spain! Got 3.5 years!

Why not save on the future trainers and take out the bump instead? I’m sure a local butcher can help if you need someone else to do the chopping?

Who needs a butcher. I’ve got a perfectly good stanley knife and angle grinder. I’ll use a fresh blade. What could go wrong?
