I went back to work on Wednesday - I don't think I mentioned that. All is going well and it was a pleasantly quiet week. Tonight was the company Christmas lunch - we left around midday and went to the bowling green for a very nice meal. The MD set a very interesting "get to know your colleagues" task. Earlier in the week he'd asked everyone for a random unusual fact about themselves. At the meal each person was given a list of these facts and a list of names who'd supplied the facts and tthe tast was to match the person to the fact. I learned some very interesting things :-)

Fell asleep watching TV earlier but having come upstairs I rode a wave of adrenaline and had the energy to stay up a few more hours. I'm glad I did; I managed to fix my broken spam scanning for incoming email.
mhw - Yes, it involved reading mail logs again ;-) ( what was wrong? answer under here for those who really care )

Tomorrow I'm off to see saintmaryuk and clan for shinydan's birthday shennanigans.

Need to finalise Christmas arrangements at some stage. My last day at work is Tuesday 22nd December. I need to be down south (at parents' houses) on Christmas day and probably part of Boxing day. Then I've no fixed plans until New Year's Eve when there's a party at my place. All welcome :-) I return to work on the 4th. Does anyone want a visitor or want to visit me over any of those gaps?

And now I flop into bed. nn.
