an update..

Minus ten degrees celsius in our garden this morning. Did I fall asleep in Norfolk and wake up in Lapland? At least it's seasonal I suppose, and I haven't got to drive anywhere today so what do I care?
Sophie is travelling down by train, which is the least likely mode of transport to be affected by bad weather, so I'm quite relieved. She and her partner are leaving Wednesday, visiting her partner's parents on the way down and staying overnight, then getting the train into Norwich about 4pm on Thursday 23rd. Yay! It's going to be great to see them. I'm still 'negotiating' with Hannah to try and convince her to spend Christmas Day with us, instead of with Nathan's lot. We shall see.

Everyone at work got a Christmas card from Tom yesterday. The picture on the front is a re-creation of the nativity scene, with Tom and his wife as Joseph and Mary, and poor little baby Summer dressed up as the infant Jesus. It is truly horrible.

Philippa and I have been getting on great. She's got loads to do in the office and I've been helping her out where I can. She's been very grateful, and very sweet. It's strange to think I'll only be working there for another week, and then I won't be seeing her anymore.
Did I say 'strange'? I think I meant 'awful'
