Friday gloom


Back to work today.
All my enthusiasm and determination that I’d cultivated in the country of Tunisia disappeared within the first two hours.
My recharged batteries feel flattened again.

The best part of my day was laughing at the staff members who are taking part in Movember. Two of them look like camp cowboys, and most of the others have so little growth it barely constitutes a moustache at all. I made several disparaging comments and dropped 50p in the collection tin. I was then brought crashing down to Earth when one of them said “Say what you like. We’ll get our own back when you’re running on a treadmill in the foyer.” I had, in the course of my indulgent seven days in North Africa, completely forgotten about the sponsored run.
