Peculiar day at work yesterday where I managed to get more done in the last hour & a half than I had in the previous 7. Ah well.

Then took myself up to Islington where kitty_goth cooked me FOOD which is always good. And there was wine & the watching of "Run Lola Run" (which I hadn't seen before - very good, thoroughly recommended). Also many many raspberries (raspberries are ace, & we ate about 3 punnets between us, which is quite a lot of raspberries. I'm going to get a raspberry cane in a pot for the garden, also blackberries). And all was vastly enjoyable.

Then I discovered that the N43, unlike the 43, does not take you as far as London Bridge but instead stops at Trafalgar Square, so took just over an hour getting home rather than the projected 30-40 min. Bother.

I have spent the last half hour a) trying to read the European Regulation on Animal By-Products (not recommended), b) trying to pretend that I'm not hungry & c) being unable to concentrate on a) due to the hunger referred to in b). It is now time to give up & consume today's Marmite sandwiches, clearly.

*ouch*

Neck aches. Back aches. WHINGE. I have attempted to phone 2 separate osteopaths, but got answerphone from both, which is rather an arse. On the upside, I have discovered that the British School of Osteopathy charges a mere £19 for the first appointment & £16 thereafter (which compares rather favourably with the £45 I paid to the last osteopath) *&* is just down the road from work. So hopefully they will ring me back & agree to fix me forthwith.

(whoops, just got phonecall from other osteopath, who charges double that & had to say "no, sorry, you are too expensive now I have found cheaper option". Hate doing that sort of thing.)

I appear to have done a reasonable amount of work today; but I've been feeling useless all day. Sorely tempted to skive off to the pub early at this point (prior to NICE FOOD the thought of which does cheer me up). I shall do one more thing then go.
