Burn baby, burn

Another reasonable night's sleep and having a snooze in until seven helped as well.

The fireworks round these parts were not too bad last night and they were mostly over by ten. I suspect that things are going to a bit more lively tonight and on Saturday, with the pub down the road organising its annual health and safety ignore-a-thon. The animals, apart from Doris, don't seem to be too bothered, which is a relief.

A work at home day, mainly spent reviewing the documentation for our web app. It's starting to make sense, but I have a feeling there's a lot of work to be done on it. One minor bombshell yesterday came from one of the developers on the team who told us that he is leaving after Christmas which will leave us somewhat short handed.

Games news, Animal Crossing and Gay Tony manage both to be excellent at evoking a living, breathing world. In one I am worrying about whether Drake will pack up and move and feeling pleased about catching a goldfish and a pike for the museum, and in the other I am worrying about what that crazy loon Mori is planning to extort from my boss Tony and feeling pleased about stealing an attack helicopter off a yacht full of arms dealers. Good times.
