Greatly exxagerated...

... are any rumours of my demise; I've just been busy. And that damned V fest review took about four days to finish. But still here and tickin', although I AM getting paranoid about every sensation in my chest, every time a any muscle moves (and they do) and feels like it's pulling, every time normal exertion makes breath a percent more heavy than usual.

Been busy, but no time to record and certainly no time to write it up funny. Could tell you about being drafted up to the North Bank to help our guys up there who were struggling to break something naughty out of where it had been hidden very well.... they were farting about with drills and cleverness; Team Smash turned up with big hammers and Hulk attitudes and the job was done in an hour. Or could tell you about leading a close obs team for the first time, but I think I shouldn't. Or could tell you about that while you guys were enjoying the bank holiday sun, I was working and having a horrible time of it too but what's the point. But anyhoo, still here, still alive and desparately working out where I can take some holiday. Twenty six days left to take, my leave year finishes at the end of October, I can only carry over ten and I've got a ghastly feeling that the calendar's already full for those months.

Gonna have to "un-fill" something.
