Title: Curse the festive season
Post by: Nick on January 01, 2020, 12:12:34 PM
I have been making a variety of social arrangements of the "See you tomorrow at 10" variety and put them in my calendar.

Of course, all these depend on me knowing that today is Wednesday and not Thursday.

I thought today was Thursday.  redface:

Everything is a complete mess  Banghead Banghead Banghead Banghead

In your case it's more understandable because back then they were using Stonehenge instead of a calendar...  whistle:

Well not having worked for 7 years it does get a bit confumbling

Normally you get cued as to where you are in the week by things like the dustbin emptying (runs a day later this week and next), milkman (didn't deliver last two Wednesdays), football fixtures (well effed up), day time TV schedules (all changed) and shops being empty Mon-Fri as people are at work (they're not)

So it's Thursday as far as I'm concerned

So the decorations and tree are coming down

And all the cards and on to the annual Christmas card audit

One card from someone we didn't send one too  redface:  Haven't got her address anyway and we did text her

No cards from 10 people we sent cards to  evil:  Some excuses but there's 3 neighbours that are off the list for next year   

But look what was found in the unclaimed Boxing Day game prizes.  I have my Crunchie  cloud9:
