Wednesday 4th December 2024

Wednesday, and the day of the great beer delivery.

And rather than just take their selection box of strong Belgian Christmas beers, I chose eight that I have not tried before, plus two that are favourites.

Three hundred and thirty nine The delivery was due at midday, or just after, so I needed to wait in.

And with no audit, I could sleep to six or even beyond, and be at work at or just after seven ready for seven hours of hard audit writing.

As long as nothing elsewhere in the company took my attention.

Needless to say, the forces of chaos were out in strength, and so the seven hours I planned was reduced to two or three hours.

So it goes, so it goes.

Outside the bright sunlight of the first two days had gone, replaced by cloud and the promise of gales and heavy rain to come once darkness fell.

At about half one, I get a migraine, so switch the work computer off and go for a lay down. Mulder comes to lay down with me on the bed upstairs, so I lay, snoozing, listening to the wind building.

Dinner was Kyiv and Boston beans, and despite us saying we would only be drinking at weekends, I have wine and Jools had cider.

So, cheers.

Anda night of football, with Arsenal v Man Utd coming after Newcastle v Liverpool. That first game was very entertaining, possibly the game of the season so far, but ends 3-3.

Arsenal score twice from corners and Utd offered very little. 2-0.
