Stork

Got to work at just after 7, made a cup of tea, logged on and the telephone rang.  When I'd dealt with that problem, I hung up and the telephone rang again.  And so it continued.  Throw in a couple of stressful meetings and it was a rather full-on sort of day.

It is also Weiberfastnacht - the woman take over for today.  Any man caught wearing a tie is liable to have said tie chopped in two. 

It's all part of the Karneval madness that's rife around these parts.  I have colleagues who have taken this week and 3 days next week as holiday, just so they can party (there are lots of people wearing silly costumes as well).

An early bed beckons.
