Today I have mainly been V4.0 (Part 1)

Attempting to master an apple picking ‘staff basket’ and learning apples can deliver a nice clump to the head when using the extending pole to about 18foot.

Very nice indeed, congrats.

Mostly being a caffeine fuelled Zombie, having ingested a meatmans portion of ribeye last night, I was denied the usual option of lying in bed like a beached whale so that I could police FoL#2s post Prom party.

Which was supposed to finish at 0300, but trundled on till 0430. I was up for work at 0700. A couple of double espressos and off I went, topped up with some Red Bull around lunchtime. Got home at 1500 having totally forgot we we’re out again tonight for one of Claire’s mates 50th, so more coffees and am now feeling pretty on edge…

You should wear that helmet and wield that axe when establishing the absolute veracity of your invoicing policies with your clientele.

Re-felting the Brewhouse roof. Remarkably straight forward. Having a local odd jobs bloke assist was inspired, as he was more than happy to get on the roof.

Refelting a shed roof is one the few meaty diy jobs I can manage… normally I hate ladders or diy - I think it’s not having to be super accurate that means I feel okay to tackle it

You seem to spend an awful lot of time interviewing Simon.
Does your place have staff retention issues?

Budgets unaffected by the realities of the outside world :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:
