How many relate holiday season with drinking heavily?
Off to the beach for a run and possibly a swim:) to offset tonight´s indulgences. Happy New Year to all.
Thinking this could compete anyone's EDC.

I fear I may have eaten my own bodyweight in serrano ham since christmas.
Unexpected £5,000 tax bill popped up when I did my self assessment return today. Gutted.
Pretty cold here today
How unusual
I keep on misreading it and thinking of something else entirely.
I reckon most blog entries on here are the result of people clicking 'Blog this Post' by accident and not noticing. ;-)
Still addicted to Daim.
I like Heston broominthals glasses
It turns out that sherry in coffee is utterly, utterly FOUL! Blech!
Having owned a ski apartment for 10 years today was an incredible day for my family. My 5 year old lad started using chair lifts so he joined his 7 year old sister, my wife and I for a couple of hours of skiing together. Feels like a long time coming but felt momentous as we all laughed and sped down the slopes together. Having a nice whiskey to celebrate.
Whenever I see "RSC" I still think of Royal Shakespeare Company.
A famous person has never 'said hello' to me.
Set up my homemade (read plastic tub, bits of card and table lamps) studio today to have my first play with my new macro lens. The boss got home at five and No1 daughter told her I'd been taking photos of my watch so she asked to see the results.
I told her I'm not happy yet, she can see some tomorrow when I've tweaked things a bit.
Reason is that I haven't told her about the watch I was shooting today yet - and it's fairly high ticket
I had a new custom made hardwood front door and frame fitted today and the house has warmed up significantly. Also no draft. Result.

I've just bought a vehicle off a chap who cleaned the Queen's curtains.

Putting the Lexus hybrid into ECO mode seems to turn the drive shaft into a bundle of rubber bands.
Takes some getting used to.

My ex-girlfriend came to visit me last year. When she was here, she decided that she had to do some tidying up.
I haven't been able to find my camera battery rechargers since then! She denies all knowledge of seeing any such thing.
Fingers crossed!

I'm telling mine to eff off tomorrow when I get my start date from the new lot.
Good luck with yours!
Random - that's going straight in the bin as soon as I get in.
Feeling relaxed after working from home today, meeting a tough deadline, getting through a challenging telephone Board meeting where UK CEO played tough but I nailed every question, bunked off for a long walk with my wife this afternoon, nice dinner then a couple of nice whiskey's once kids in bed. Been stressed out for 2 weeks and feels like a weight has lifted.
That holds absolutely no fear for me! Redundancy cheque would be great and there is masses of contracting work for chartered accountants with my experience. It'll never happen though as I know how to play the corporate game and have skills they find almost impossible to recruit. I'll have to walk out one day once I get bored. In just under 10 years I'll be able to access my pension and be in a position retire anyway.
I had so much to do today that I couldn’t work out what to do first, so I went out for a bike ride instead.

I've never really been interested in giving my collection any kind of direction, but lately I've been feeling the urge to start a collection of blue dialled watches.
Been on the phone to the insurance this morning after managing to snap my Mont Blanc inkpen in half in an hotel room in Frankfurt on Tuesday night.
Left my room windows open (second floor) and came back to find a twister of large houseflies in the middle of the room (HATE flies in a room) - stupidly and without thinking swiped at them with my leather A4 pad folder forgetting the pen was inside - it shot across the room and smashed against the wall.
I felt a prize plonker explaining this to Direct Line......
I forgot to put my watch on this morning.
All day ive felt like something is WRONG.
I bought 52 hours of Sopranos for £21
After many years I just realised there is a fire extinguisher right outside my office
Just had to evict yet another spider from the bath, where do all these furry little buggers keep coming from?
We have implemented a new HR tool at work. It's called WorkDay.
How apt - it now takes 1 work day to perform even the most simple tasks...
