I took my time getting back yesterday. Nick woke me at 10am and drove me to Leicester where I caught a train to Solihull. I had to update the stock system at Le Scarpe, and ended up spending much longer there than had been expected when we discovered some critical software was missing (I've spent part of today fixing that problem). I then went back into Brum and after a short wander, took the train back home.

I spoke to Davies for a while. Apparently now back from Cairns, he too was on a train, but heading down to Kent. Apparently the last two weeks in Australia were pretty good to him (apart from the weather), and now it's all just a question of the final photo swap before I can finally put them all up online.

In the evening I got a text from John and we met up down at The Crisp for a social. Also in attendance were Tom, Liam, Raj, Steve, Mike and Ian, who I haven't seen in bloody ages. The evening whiled away in the beer garden and it was good to find out what's on everyone's agenda now that most of us are graduates.

Today has been spent inside (which is a shame/sauna) trying to cut through the stack of work that needs clearing. I am not a chilled out bunny.
