The north wind doth blow ...

... but it doesn't look like we're going to get any snow this weekend. It was the coldest morning all week though - -2.5 on the weather station, but a brisk northerly wind knocked at least another seven or eight off that for wind chill as I picked my way round the woods.

Work has been irritating - we've got an ongoing problem with the maintenance invoicing system, and every time we escalate the call with the suppliers they just ask for yet another backup copy of our data files. It is perfectly possible to demonstrate the problem with any set of data, so they are just stalling for time and wasting mine into the bargain. Gits.

Still, at least I've got some sushi for lunch today, and it's Friday so life is sweet. I might finish Call of Cthulhu this weekend, if I can get past the bit where I got to last night - stuck on a ledge on the side of an abyss being attacked by these ... things ... that look like a cross between a hot air balloon and the scrapings off an abattoir floor with far too many eyeballs for comfort. Just over a week until Animal Crossing is released in North America, and then however long the post from Canada takes to wend its way over the North Atlantic. Meeep!
