On Friday the police helicopter was over the harbour again and we commented about another person drowned. On Monday it was announced that one of my colleagues (a developer in the greater team) had been found drowned after a night in town. He was a nice bloke and had spent some time in Dunedin a few years ago. RIP Andy.
At the team meeting that day it was my turn to provide the cake. I made a pav, but it was a flop. It looked OK in the oven but collapsed and ended up with the marshmallow bit about 2 cm deep. Anyone know what I did wrong? Anyway, they made the right noises.
After a couple months of Colonel Blimp being an arse about it I have finally received a copy of the contract I signed. How unreasonable can a person be? J gets it every day from her workforce, and had an example today of someone on the train simply refusing to pay his fare. "I got no money, what are you going to do about it?" Society depends on people acting reasonable and it can be quite a shock when you find people, like Colonel Blimp, who do not. But then we create lawyers who are paid to be unreasonable on your behalf.
BTW, what's the latest on the VC theft?
The first test was off to an indecisive start, with the Pom's claiming the best of the first day. I congratulated my co-workers on the fact that England haven't collapsed yet, purely because they haven't batted yet. We'll see how many runs the tail enders can put on.
That's all for now.

159/3 at lunch on the 3rd day, plenty of time for an english collapse in response to a respectable 470.
medal suspects in court, still looking very murky, doesn't sound like an inside job ie Col Blimp ...

well despite the Sidebottom hattrick on day 4 to give Vaughn's men a sniff, Vettori showed some steel and the visitors fell over in a satisfying heap
