No but I did eat a burger with three patties in it. The record is now six patties.

And those will be the office's four most productive days this year. They've just put into action some basic economics to offset the time waster. Expect more fun courses in your future!

No offence, by the way.

Someone at my workplace got me pregnant just to improve the efficiency of the place.

Awesome. That'll be an awesome trip. If you can, go to Franklins in Austin - as long as you don't mind queueing most of the morning.

Mini yay, but after three and a half weeks, my Dad is home from hospital. He's not out of the woods yet, but the hospital seem to have a better idea of what is causing him his problems so have said he can go home and take a six-week course of varying antibiotics to try and sort it all out. So I imagine he's sat in front of the telly now :)

If you asked him, he'd probably moan about the hospital, doctors, nurses etc, but I can't fault them. All last week, they had an interpreter with him from 9-5, as you could never be certain when a doctor would want to speak to him. Thankfully they varied the interpreters each day as it must be crushingly boring to spend all day with a couple of deaf people you don't know while everyone else on the ward is in a bit of a state.

Prom tickets for Mahler's 2nd Symphony ('The Resurrection') in mid-August got! High up in the gods, but still a seat nonetheless. And the friend I'm going with has got slightly better seats for a Rachminov/Tchaikovsky prom at the end of that month! I'll have to pay the difference in cash or beer...


Mahler night! Excited. I've never heard the 2nd live, and it's not one I've listened to that much, so have high expectations. I did have to explain to my mum when I said I was going to the Proms that 'no, I won't be singing along'.

I think all the normal car hire places will offer a convertible muscle car category, I wrangled a (hardtop) 'Stang out of Enterprise last time I was in California.

Thanks for that. I'm going to do more research, but suspect I'll not need a car while we're in Austin, so may do some on the ground searching while we're there for the six days the festival is on.

My 2nd eldest son has done enough in his GCSEs to get onto his chosen A-Level courses, including getting an 8 in Maths and a distinction in ECDL (some IT thing apparently worth 8.5 out of 9 on the new grading system)

He is really pleased, he got a couple of Cs and Ds, but got Bs (or equivalent) and above in English and Science.

One less headache for me to worry about...

ECDL is (or was) the European Computer Driving License.

I had to do it once because reasons and it was painfully simple.

I assume the school one is different.
