Fairly quiet day today; the office is definitely winding-down for Christmas. Did a bit of informal business planning ready for when the budget process kicks off in January, met up with our new Head of Finance to discuss our budget/spending and how the two teams (technology and finance) interact, which was all very productive.
Did various home chores as well… the car has a slow puncture in one of the front tyres, so I checked out local Kwik-Fits so I could get it fixed on Wednesday. Also had a word with the managing agent for our building about a dodgy lock that needs replacing. In the quiet of the late afternoon I spent a while toying Google Maps plotting out an itinerary for a US Road Trip that we’ve spoken about on a few occasions but never really knuckled-down to organising. Maybe next year…
There was a sudden blizzard this afternoon too which closed all the stations for a while, but as I was back at the Festival Hall for the second of the three Sandi Toksvig gigs this evening, I didn’t mind so much. Sure enough, Charing Cross was open by the time we had done our two numbers and trudged through the slush across the river. Quite a few people didn’t make it tonight though and it felt quite exposed on stage.
