    Good god I hope you’ve all had a better start to the day than me!

    Hardly any sleep, and I’m not a morning person even at the best of times, and also my hands don’t generally work right for about half an hour after I wake up.

    So naturally I went to get an emergency cuppa, only to find the teabag thing needs refilling. No worries, there’s an unopened box of Yorkshire in the cupboard. But my stupid hands just would not work, I’m stood there sort of ineffectually pawing at the sealed edges of the plastic for about two whole minutes getting increasingly annoyed and swearing at it out loud…and then I realise there’s one of those easy open strip things that you just have to pull.

    FML. I’ve never been more grateful for half day Fridays.

          Sounds delightful! Hopefully getting a per diem though? Last few years of my apprenticeship I was booking any course vaguely related to my role so could get down to London and eat in places I’d never even dreamed of as an ayrshire lad. So places with running water etc….

            per diem

            Yeah, the days covered thankfully. Was good and interesting, but my brain has been thoroughly scrambled.

            Wish I could afford to eat out in central London ha.

              It was nuts money back when I used to go, maybe 2018 was last time and that was with a fifty quid a day meal allowance. Never afford that on my own dime.
