Not much has happened so far this week, last Saturday was.. interesting, with two of the experienced staff off leaving only myself, my manager David and the Saturday girl. This it could have been much worse.

It's been rather cold so far, even down in warmish Exeter. As I type this it's snowing outside, rather feebly compared to the snowfalls I remember from one winter in Grenoside, but it will have to do.

I had my first annual review and David has said that he feels a pay increase is in order. Just as well I'd just sent off my I'm-not-earning-enough-to-have-to-repay-my-student-loan form before receiving this news.
