It took me a little while to get back into the swing of things. Somehow that one working Monday left a really bad taste in my mouth, and I had to try really hard to shake all thoughts of work from my mind and get rid of a feeling of underlying dread over the inevitable end of the holiday looming… Read More

Uhh it was ghastly to go back to work just when you had sort of slipped into that Christmassy state of being. To ease the pain we went for a nice pub lunch with Layla.
