smallhobbit | De-Mob Happy

I finished work this afternoon and don't have to go back until January 2nd. I am so happy. No more dealing with our accountant, who for the second month running paid the salaries out of the wrong bank account. No more dealing with volunteers, who in one case left the oven gloves on the electric cooker and turned the wrong ring on. When the oven gloves started to smoulder, setting off the fire alarm, she threw the offending gloves out of the window. Where, it was discovered later, they had landed on a wooden bench which now has scorch marks and the paint has burnt off.

Now's the time to play Christmas songs. SM likes listening to the Tallis Scholars, so I stick my headphones in and play The Pogues Fairytale of New York, Greg Lake I believe in Father Christmas and my all time favourite Slade Merry Christmas Everybody.

Does anyone else do the silly "How X Are You?" on Facebook? Recently I've discovered I'm a northerner from around Hull, not bad for a Londoner, and 0% posh. My mother would be so proud.

Only five more sleeps and it will be too late to worry about all the things that haven't been done.

Told you I'm de-mob happy :-)
