Today we said goodbye to our futon. It has served us well over the last seven or eight years but there have been many complaints about its comfort levels and so we have bought a proper guest bed meaning that the futon has been usurped. We tried selling it but nobody seemed keen to pay us any money for it and so this morning I put it on Freecycle and less than 12 hours later it was gone. As an added bonus we also managed to send our old office chair to a new home at the same time!

30th September 2010

I have officially been back at LR for one month now, although I have only worked for half of that time as we were on holiday for the first half of September. I'm slow getting used to be back in a big office again. Of course it's all helped by the fact that very little has changed in four years - there's still a free canteen for lunch, the computers are still tempermental, it's still difficult to get things done and they've still got this interesting water feature in the front courtyard.
