Yes, in short. He's blitzing through the files to get them all up to date then we're having a sit down to decide which ones I've got day to day control of. He admits he should have been upfront about what he was doing.

Re: What are you doing today ??
Serviced and pampered the sp ready for summer fun.
She's had an oil and filter change (full synthetic) coolant change, brake and clutch fluid change, spark plugs checked, air filter cleaned, brake callipers stripped and cleaned and then spent over an hour cleaning every single one of the 104 links of the chain so no tight spots or debris.
She's over 10 years old and very much like new and I always enjoy working on her its very satisfying and I take more time and care than any workshop would.

Re: What are you doing today ??
Worrying if I have got caught going through the red light on the A272 and then ultimately meaning I'll get 3 points on my lisense.
On the plus side heading up north now so should get my mind off things for a couple days for work. Should be a good trip heard the company were meeting with have booked a table at a Chinese for us later tonight. I don't drink but the few who do are planing for a good night!!

Re: What are you doing today ??
On the m25 and literally just saw abut 5 people all get flashed because they entered a 50 zone on the opposite side of the ride. Just so easy to get done speeding now just by keeping up with traffic seems to be a problem

Worrying about my little lad. He is in hospital today for grommets fitting in his ears. He is going under general anaesthetic and I can't help worrying about the little man. His mum should call in the next hour or so hopefully to tell me my little buddy is be OK.
Strange how things change when your a parent. I worry for my lads all the time and only worry about myself so I can be here for them.

Re: What are you doing today ??
My lad had the same operation.
I've had to hold both of my kids when they went under general . Because I know how sickening a feeling it is when it happened to my daughter I refused to allow my wife to hold our son when she volunteered. Having your child go completely lifeless in your arms is something I never want to experience again.
That said, both of my kids bounced from the op. My daughter was running around in no time, asking kids who were throwing up if they wanted their toast

Got a discussion with an expert about someone's care requirements then I've got a telephone court hearing. I'm on a losing streak which I suspect will continue today
