    Just tried to do it there and website is blocked on work computer!! I think IT updated some of allowable type of sites over the holidays. Internet radio is now not allowed.

    Will try on my phone later.

    Glad that work week is over. Have changed into comfy clobber and enjoying a nice cold guinness now after coming back from a good walk. Bit of dinner and relax for the night... hope you all have a nice weekend!

    Is that a WFH arrangement or off work for 2 weeks arrangement!?

    Oh and fingers crossed nothing develops from the close contact.

    I usually take a few days in February to cover the kids mid term break from school. Unlikely they'll even be in school for that this year so reckon I'll just keep working through in the hope that restrictions will be lifted a tad for the spring/summer & latter half of the year. Am gonna have to save a few days for Christmas as well because of the way it falls this year. Looking at needing 6 days leave to cover 2 weeks off this time round.
