Closer to the weekend

Oooohhhh yes I can almost smell the  sea air (hopefully).

However two more work days to go and you just know that these will be the slowest ever!!!.

Today I am continuing with the grim task of sorting out super swanky builds in Woking and Golders Green, neither of these are going to be easy or straight forward jobs and to be honest with only having 2.5 draughtsmen in the office  it is going to be a tough few weeks.Trill Boy does not count as a whole draughtsman due to his inability to

1. Sit at his desk for longer than 2 minutes without getting up walking around and disturbing other people.

2. Concentrate on the job in hand  and sing made up songs to the radio. His recurring favourite being 'I know a gadgie called Paul' which he sings to any tune.

3. Actually do the work assigned to him without moaning about it loudly, or having to ask others to help him with it.

4. Grasp the concept that work is work and not a place to answer your phone, call your 'other half', have an argument with your solicitor

Do any of the above seem familiar? I think that the first 4 will take you back to your school days, there was always a child in the class like that! Sadly that 'child' is now in my office!!!!

Anyhoooo back to important things like cricket.

Well it was all going on at Durham yesterday as they lost to Warwickshire ( that was the concise version!). yes those Brums flipping well took it down to the wire and pulled the rug from under Durhams feet!
Paul Collingwood was also in trouble with the ECB over his little outburst on Sunday.   Will he do it again, probably.

And then there was T20 on the box last night, Lancashire V Nottinghamshire. oh my giddy aunt!!!!!!! If that was not a nail biter I do not know what was!!!!!.

Notts were set a target of 137  and it all looked to be over. Wicket after wicket fell and
it took tiny captain James Taylor to win with a brilliant  4 hit off the last ball. Heart in mouth stuff!!!!!

No 'Big Lukey' who is still injured, but Jack Brooks was commentating on Sky...................work experience?

Oh well time to get the day started.
