Blues well and truly banished

Today has been a blast. I only worked a half day and most of that was spent in a meeting with Gavin and my peers from the main office. All positive stuff and Our Esteemed Leader is in a great mood because a) we're heading into high season and bookings are bloody brilliant, and b) he has found someone to put some money into his profit-haemorrhaging mini empire down in the South West. After months of ploughing his own capital into a project that needed a colossal amount of investment, he has finally seen sense and taken on a partner or two to help alleviate the burden and help to facilitate steadier growth and development.
Sorry - lost myself in a sentence of Management WankSpeak there! Very bad of me, and I shall whip myself with nettles later by way of punishment.
Anyway... After work, Philippa and I had a lovely late lunch by the river at our new-found favourite eatery, and then we collected Mathew from his daily duties and came home for a delightful play in the garden. Hide and seek, bowls, and we made a tent out of blankets. And then I got reminded that we actually own an actual tent, so Mathew helped me put that up and then we had a 'Pirate's Picnic' in it for tea. Man, parenthood is great when you're not letting yourself get bogged down by the tiredness and responsibility of it.
