Speeding along on the back of the M39

Another day of the whirlwind style existence. Head was spinning in a haze of cold symptoms and things to do, but somewhere along the day, I think after dinner this turned into a major positive force which seemed hitherto impossible given my feeling so grim in the morning.

Still no porridge in the larder, ordinarily a bit of a Priority 1 problem in our house, updates required each and every hour until resolved. Had a very interesting chat at work on the subject of porridge and sugar or salt/child cruelty. The peeps I was discussing it with couldn't imagine cooking it with water and adding milk once cooked. Barbaric I think was the term used.

So it was brambles and 'SomethingFlakes' which was nice. It should be noted that we, probably like every household in the land have names for all the cereals we eat, usually born of childhood error or stupid inspiration, B B Bix, Green Box, PoPo Cops, Squareones and Daddy's Cornflakes although I can't for the life of me remember why that came about only that I actually wrote on the box, 'Daddy's CornFlakes, they're OK!' Yes we don't get out often.

Training finished, more to come, much technical/administrative/organisational shenanigans to be done for the next 2 months at least. We went for lunch and I had a very nice calzone wherein we had another debate, many of my discussions centre on food, so Calzone, folded over pizza or pretend kebab. Discuss...

Had a lovely coffee afterwards on the above La Cimbali M39 Dosatron coffee machine, their professional automatic espresso coffee machine equipped with a micro-processor for an easy programming of coffee and hot water dosage.

Equipped with Cimbali?s patented Smart Boiler technology, which significantly boosts steam and hot water capacity (+ 30%).

Thought I'd try to pass for a coffee machine trainspotter there, all that was from the website, but you probably guessed that.

Whirlwind ended after brambles at local hospital, 1kg and counting, fridge defrosting, please make it the last time ever and readin a book with child #2.

From such a crappy start to a brilliant day, in 16 hours and 25 minutes.
