An office day; I cycled into town and got logged in and lost in work; a reasonably productive day for some reason. 
Out at lunch to rummage for birthday present things; then back into more endless reports and phone call.s 
Rushed home; shower and out with the car to meet her - she was dropping G at a friends who were going out to trick or treat; we then had a nice peaceful hour of smoked salmon blinis before heading back to collect her and back up for the main of gammon, cauli cheese etc.  It went from a decent early evening to a foul late evening; weather wise, too. G into her now obligatory nonsense as I left. Don't know where that ends but its looking increasingly bleak.
