Is it very wet snow or simply very cold rain?

Well it snowed yesterday, well sort of. It was only the most miniscule of layer of snow that formed on the ground and it disappeared very quickly. Sigh I remember the good old days when snowfall round here could be measured in feet, not the Cm it's measured in these days.

Mind you despite it being a rather poor snowfall it has been very windy and cold the past two days so we've had to have the central heating cranked up. It's also been very annoying going to the freezer as we're still having to go right the way round the outside of the house to get to the garage as the back doors still stuck. I hope Grumpy gets a move on and gets someone to fix it soon otherwise it's got the potential to become realllllyyyyy annoying.

Well back to work tomorrow. Maybe it's because I'm getting older and in full time employment but it doesn't seem like the weekend last very long anymore. Hopefully things will have calmed down at work but after reading a couple of posts on our forums, I visited a certain authors blog to discover he has managed to let a rather important piece of information regarding the restructing at work out of the bag which wasn't supposed to be announced until the end of march. This unfortuantely has the potential to give people a 'second wind' as it were to encourage them to send in complaints. and guess which muggins will have to answer them.......

My appraisal went well on Friday. A couple of improvement points, but nothing to get a slapped wrist over. Which is always nice.

I got myself a couple of DVD's at the weekend. I'm amasing quite a collection now. But when I was in one shop I saw a display that reminded me it's approaching that time of year again. Yep, Valentines day. Now most people know I used to be somewhat cynical about valentines days, but I wasn't last year. The main difference being last year for the first time ever I wasn't single for valentines day, but this year I am back to being single again, so it's back to my usual cynical ways and watching all the happy couples with the envious eyes of a singleton.

Oh well, time to go back to sticking that Ork Truk together me thinks. Yes, I've been having a geeky afternoon :-)

later,
