There had to be a downside to living and working in England. Yes, they pay me more, yes the work is more interesting, yes there’s a most excellent and fantastic TLF about, yes there’re plenty of very interesting things to do round here, yes I get to gawp at plenty of really quite interesting aircraftage on a daily basis. But there is a downside.
And that downside? Well, today is clearly the 12th of July. A public holiday and day of generalised shutting down of everything in the North. And yet today I’ll be at work. Bother.
Oh well. I’m sure that there’ll be a nice helicopter or two flying overhead during the day to make up for it…
