I had a rather bad night; I always do when I’ve got an
alarm set. I got up about an hour before I might have done, made toast and
watched another episode of “Orange is the New Black” before setting off
to work.
As I drove the pundits on the radio were talking about the
planned new nuclear power
station at Sizewell. The thing is now definitely going ahead… even
though construction started eighteen months ago. There were those who welcomed
it, and those who opposed it. For the most part those who welcomed it weren’t
those with it on their doorstep, and those who opposed it were those who would
be inconvenienced by the construction. Pretty much like absolutely everything
else in life really.
There was also talk about humpback whales. They blow bubble
rings when near humans, but drone
footage of them all over the world shows this only happens when humans are
about. They don’t do it when no one is looking. The implication is that they
are trying to communicate… Are they? If so, what are they saying? I’m jut hoping it’s not “so long, and
thanks for all the fish”.
I popped in to Sainsburys to get a sandwich. They didn’t
have the carrot & houmous dip that I like so I had to rough it with nachos
and guacamole at three times the calories.
Being in the works car park earlier than I might have been,
I went for a little walk, munzing as I went. I also had my bird app going and
it detected a dozen different birds, including goldfinches. There’s loads of
goldfinches at work; I spent a little while peering out of the blood bank
window watching them having a bath in the puddle on the flat roof today.
In between watching goldfinches we had a rather busy day,
including problematical apparatus and a red alert.
And it would seem that the trainees have absolutely no idea
what the phrase “a poggered shit shop” means when describing a
malfunctioning lavatory.
We had a rather good tea of pizza and garlic bread, and I
then polished off the last of last week’s Vienetta and cream. The cream might
have been in the fridge for a tad too long; it tasted OK but it’s not sitting
well right now…
Apart from the goldfinches, today was dull…
