Where abouts in the country are you in? It feels as if the temps have gone up a bit in the last week or so up here in Auckland. Not complaining about the warmer weather (especially since we weren't planning on a snow trip this year), but it seems all the ski fields are having a terrible season.
In Hamilton, admittedly not super cold but maybe I’m getting a bit of the winter blues. What I wouldn’t give for a week or more of clear sunny weather
It's been nice having a week or so of mostly sun :) Sort of makes up for the 2? months of rain induced misery.
Our lawn has dried out a bit finally, could mow it at the weekend without sinking into it.
I know it's not the most popular sport on here, but playing golf this weekend was the first time in what seems like 1.5 months where I wasn't sinking into the ground everywhere.
I’m waiting for it to start, the ski fields in the South Island are pretty bare for this time of the year.
Any Burnout 3 fans here? I'm stuck on the last GP, the one with the formula one cars.
There's just enough time for a couple more attempts before I start work..
The last 15 minutes of the work day are a very particular brand of time-bending quantum fuckery, aren't they?
This is why I think flexible working hours are the best win-win ever. Stay longer when you're in the zone, knock off early when it's clear nothing worth doing is getting done today.
Unfortunately our business is prone to having a bunch of people diving through the door in the last ten minutes. But it's all good, at least the days are starting to get longer and I'll be able to enjoy the sun on the walk home in a week or two.
Ah yeah, flexible hours doesn't work when you work in a business with opening hours.
