Balance

A few years ago I had a break from normal work life and tried something completely different. How good that was. Although I had to return to the original job eventually, it taught me a lot about work / life balance, about how important downtime was and how vital it was to switch off from work in the evenings. I vowed never to return to my old ways and yet tonight I realised I'd slipped back into previous bad habits.

As I drove past Arthur's Seat and saw these kite-flyers - one of whom was tripodded up - enjoying the sun and the breeze, it made me decide that this was the last time the boot would be full of fairly unpleasant things to do in the evening.

We'll see...
