It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas Off Topic Chat

Yup, tis manky, throw on top of that a suit and tie and its a sure way to get angry very quickly.

As you guys say though the humidity is the killer, its bad here in April and May but when it gets really hot its not so bad. Muscat was by far the worst, even worse than when I was in HK. Muscat is right on the ocean and has a solid rock range of hills/mountains surrounding it making it a humidity cauldron. So humid our apartment alarms would keep on tripping, and the car in the basement would look like it was raining. Horrible.

A nice drizzly day on an Irish beach for me.

Actually stormy and wet here the last few days after a period of dry, bright days.

Still take it over what you have described!

That wind and rain last night was the strongest I've seen in a while. Worse than many of the named 'storms' we've had.

Good luck with the interview!

Thanks, have had 3 this week (for 2 jobs) and got notice this morning of an interview for a great role so hopefully there may be light at the end of the tunnel.

Tired as I am I have since done three loads of laundry, sorted two dry loads out, changed my bed linen and hoovered the house. My plans for the rest of the day involve primarily my couch

Freaky weather, have had two massive hail showers this afternoon and it's not even that cold out.

I was going to ask how you managd to fit all that in on top of getting to & from an interview & just realised you were most likely doing the interview online.... doh! You'd think with the amount of zoom/teams meeting I attend each week I'd have copped that sooner

Hope it went well anyway!

Fingers crossed, Caranica!

Can't wait, woooop!
I've a couple of Mondays booked off soon too, so between next week, and Easter coming up, I have no 5 day week now for a month.

Plus today was uncharacteristically quiet in work, I got McDonalds for lunch, took a long break and finished early. It's been a bit mad lately, so I deserved a slow day. :pac:

A well deserved slow day

Thankfully another busy period in work is over and I survived. Hopefully I can come up for some Air Next couple of weeks.

It’s all about working 2 days and having 5 off. I’ve had it the wrong way round all these years

Posy

Even 3 on, 4 off I suppose I could live with.

A 3 day weekend would do me.

Well, I guess I could struggle on with that if I had to. :pac:
