Let's start with today... wake up, spod. Sort out my paperwork, make sure I know where everything is that I'm supposed to be doing today. Decide I can't be arsed to wait until this evening to do the Pension service call, do it this morning.

Head off to Barnsley, do the CPWH job, during which the guy there just about sold me a Virgin phone :) It took a lot of effort to refuse! I was there nearly half an hour while he went through everything with me. I feel sorry for wasting his time in a way. Then to Cortonwood retail park, where there's 2 lunchtime cafes to do! That was really bad time planning, Phil... have lunch in B&Q's cafe, move to Asda's cafe and spent a good hour doing those two. Looked around the DVD players and drooled over the Panasonic one mentioned earlier. Come out of Asda feeling distinctly dodgy, not sure what happened with that panini there, but I only ate half of it...

Off to Sheffield, for a credit card stand job. I was supposed to observe them discretely for a few minutes first, but they'd positioned themselves in such a way as to ensure it was impossible to walk past them without coming into their "zone" (10yards from stand). I got collared as I tried to sneak past, and thought "If I decline now, I am going to look really dodgy if I come back later on..." so went with it. Unfortunately, when I'd gone through with the application, produced the letter of authority and he said "I thought you were an MSer but we're not supposed to say anything".

Ahh well, can't go perfectly every time, eh?

Tomorrow... work, 0800-1630, then I'll head straight to the gym, do the routine and spend a bif of time in the pool/spa/sauna/steam rooms. Niiiice.
