First day in the office after a long weekend, and the first day without my lackey. There are about a gazillion emails that need dealing with and I am beginning to sink without a trace under the avalanche of Ministerial correspondence that’s coming my way since it was decided by those on high that the Central Correspondence Unit wasn’t pulling its weight and could safely be dispensed with.
Yet again I find myself spending all my time trying to defend existing policy and having no time to spend actually developing alternatives. All this and a below-inflation pay offer. No wonder we all scamper waggy-tail into the office each morning with such enthusiastic anticipation.
There was a parcel at home this morning for Furtle and myself. I book for herself and a pamphlet about Louise Brooks for me. Fantastic. I think I know who it’s from; but the signature and my tired eyes failed to mesh, so I’m only 85.36% sure.
Oh well, on with it, I suppose. Only today and tomorrow morning to get through and then I’m off for another week. Hurrah!
