Another Thursday Holiday

The timing of this holiday is odd - from my perspective - we have a huge implementation this weekend and yet 80% of us are on holiday today and who knows how many are on holiday tomorrow (standard bridge day tactic).  So I'm at home but my colleagues in Hamburg aren't and they have no support if things have gone more than a bit agley*.

It's been a quiet day for me. And I think this is a good thing.  Work tomorrow nice and early and then we'll see what I have to fix.

This thunderstorm promised a lot but delivered only a couple of minutes of rain and a half hearted clap of thunder.

*You'll need to polish up your Lallans and get to grips with Robert Burns to learn what that means.  Or I can provide this to help:-

"The best laid schemes o' Mice an' Men,
Gang aft agley,
An' lea'e us nought but grief an' pain,
For promis'd joy!" 
The best laid schemes of Mice and Men
oft go awry,
And leave us nothing but grief and pain,
For promised joy!
