    We move office today. All things are to be packed into a box and taken. We are told the computer will be closed at kl.11:00, but I think that will not happen. I may be without work later for the football in Albanía, which is good.

    The good thing is today has no rain and the bad thing we have 1C and clouds. Miðvíkurfjall has a good layer of snow on the top.

    That's a shame, Dan. My mother managed to lose the camera with my graduation ceremony photos on before the film had been developed. I made sure I was in charge of photos when I collected my masters degree some years later.

    I am sorry Dan I know how important it is for everyone... and how you like to graduate with your group etc.

    This year I completely blew it ....as I would be on the stage and clap all my students coming on.... for the first time in 19 years i had to fit holiday in over graduation as i was taking vols to India later..... and of course they then offered me the early retirement deal.....

    So I never got the opportunity to say goodbye and congratualte them all..

    Never mind... I am sure you will end up with good memories as time goes by....

    Morning all, well afternoon for most of you. International lul, no golden blaze this weekend. Just as well as have to go to Mexico City tomorrow for training. I hate it there, it is like crabs in a bucket, still, only one day then can zip back to Queretaro.

    I saw that big phone bill, my old man once got a cheque back from BT for £0.03p as he had made a mistake paying his bill. Enjoy the weekend all !! :)

    Hope that all went well with your friend and there will be good news next week H. <ok>

    Complete total break Yorkie, but managing ok now.

    Mme needed a shopping trip to Chateauroux today, so as I would not be able to walk too far the chair was pressed into use. As the midday hour approached I was in need of refueling, so we went into a restaurant and the help was great. Find a table that has plenty of room around it, move chairs to help, the staff could not have been better, and all with a smile.

    You seem to be a bit better Al if you feel like eating. Hope it is not in your glass lifting elbow.;)

    The reason I asked is they told me when I tore ligaments that a break heals more quickly....

    Thats one hell of a mistake!!

    I'm puzzled Dan - the Uni must offer you a graduation ceremony surely - it is their fault not yours if they were not ready this time - so your first opportunity should be next time they have a ceremony

    I have not heard anything Leo. When I tried to fill in the booking form it said it was too late to book. I might try again though, thanks for that.
