Work stuff.
Work has been strange again.
Last week, Marie France was on holiday and her replacement went sick.

A day of no major suprises – but still a stupid cat!
Today, wonderfully, almost nothing went wrong at work – We even finished early (at 15:45).

Another cold
Having just recovered from one cold, I seem to be coming down with another (and during the mushrooming season as well!).
Quelle chance!
Working too hard!
We’ve just had an order for 10 tonnes of Plat Cotes.
These have to be wrapped and, as that takes time, the order is taking a long time to process.
Counting problems
After an easy day at work – both lines running at 300 cartons an hour and someone helping me all day – I came home to face the garden.
Sam offered to help me, Cindy decided to watch.
I raked up the walnuts that had fallen during the storm (my Landlady and neighbours had already been round to help themselves) and Sammy did the counting.
Sammy admitted to having a problem after an hour or so, “Daddy, what number comes after a million billion?” he asked me.
Still tired, still happy
Once again, I’ve been naughty and not updated the site for a while.
My excuse is that I’ve been very busy getting my other two sites up and running. Work, has also been very busy and I am doing a fair bit of overtime (up to the legal maximum of 43 hours.)
The extra hours aren’t so bad, it’s the extra work during those hours (yesterday both my productions lines hit 1,000 cartons an hour – each carton is 10kg – thus, 20 tonnes an hour – about my maximum!).
Strike! We’re going on strike!
After having a week off work (in order to try to finish putting ‘French for Beginners’ onto the computer – no hope there, I’m afraid!) I came back to work to find that we were going on strike.
