    Negative covid test so surgery in the morning. Test swab from nose only. Rather unpleasant sensation which lasted about 30 mins after, but bearable.
    So delighted to be getting surgery for an injury and getting back to normal life in a few weeks. Postponed since March so not too long of a delay.
    Should be sleeping but can't seem to manage.
    Due in hospital at 9am and will be in overnight.

    I hope all goes well, this time tomorrow it'll all be over.

    No, gosh not able for a full week of twelve hour shifts, doing six. But then more leave and back to four twelves a week for a while i hope..

    I had either three or four 12hr shifts with 20 mins for passdown. It alternated. Would do a month of nights a month of days, although if you got transferred for a month for training it could suck (happened to me once). Doing the three day weeks was perfect. My biggest problem was the two hours of commuting a day.

    The travel does add to it, of course with covid it's been much more free flowing until recently

    So I’m now aboard a lovely B777-300 aircraft, got busy cleaning my business class seat with Dettol wipes only to realise that I was one row behind my assigned seat, so moved seat and repeated the cleaning process. Then we got offered seats in the First Class suites, so cleaning again 😀😀😀

    Time to change my job title from hotel room bum to aircraft cleaner 😀

    I have had longer naps than what I had for sleep last night.


  • Registered Users Posts: 323 ✭✭Phoenix32


    Fell asleep at 1, woke at 6, I usually sleep like a baby! I have towels coming today from Argos though so this pleases me, it's the little things :D oh and I'm finally getting a bedsheet too, the luxury of it all :p

    I hope all goes well with your surgery Willow.

    There's been 300,000+ downloads so far! It's great to see. It's a really good thing for everyone. Installing it and being involved will help keep the country up and running and peoples jobs and livelihoods safe(r).

    I agree with all of this ^^

    But I'm pretty sure leg end was hoping people were supportive of you coming out today. :D:D

    I've no doubt she was :)

    I am not the type of person who gets on a soap box about anything. However, this is something I feel strongly about and want to try to help correct the misinformation being spread by conspiracy theorists. Most of them have no notion what they're talking about and as a person who works with the security and privvacy of information systems I can speak from a position of knowledge and understanding of what is going on with the app. :cool:
