After a long, exhausting week - I made the fatal mistake of going for a drink after work - 2 leaving parties ( including the lovely Tracey - Higher Education administrator - who will be much missed ) and a 40th Birthday party later, and I found myself pissed out of my mid in The Clown dancing to The Sex Pistols with several staggering co-workers. Dunno how I managed to get home without being run over or mugged, fell over a couple of times and had a very bad night. The beer in there is awful - but I have nobody but myself to blame. Have not been 'proper' drunk in about 15 years - didn't enjoy the results and won't be repeating the exercise. I actually know a girl who ruined her career by getting drunk at a works reception - I hope the fact that everyone else was just as pissed as me helps them wipe the episode from their minds...
Closer to home, the COOP is facing up to the fact that it's not going to be a barbeque weekend by slashing the prices on everything barbie related that they had over stocked, hence a fridge full of meat products and a lunch that consisted of about £30 worth of sushi for about £4. I'm wondering about the wisdom of getting a small freezer for similar events - even the guys on the till were saying the prices were silly, although I'm a bit embarassed that every time I shop there my basket is full of bargains.
I really need a break this weekend - today is a write off - but tomorrow I'm going to give myself some time off and just try and relax, I'm really run down now and I have stacks to do next week - thank God for Bank Holidays.
