Quietus

It's so weird to be sitting here with very little to do. Don't get me wrong, I've got lots to get on with, but it ain't like the middle of August, or even the end of October.  There are Christmas plans and there are rotas to finalise and there are maintenance contracts to sort out, etc, etc, but it's all general stuff - there's nothing overwhelmingly pressing. There's nothing rising up unexpectedly to catch me out and add to my workload. There aren't a hundred and one daily tasks to battle through while also fighting fires, and compared to what we've recently been through, there's barely anyone on site! I know I've said it before, but when you look at the year as a whole, it really is like I have two jobs. One is full on, stressful, flat-out, exhausting and relentless; and now I get to enjoy the other one....
