My first....

'one of those days' since I started in the new job. I was wading through treacle on most things work related today, but 6 weeks in and I've had my first bad day is pretty good going.

Later I met up with with my young cousin Peter for some food in JP's and then on to Kay's Bar in Jamaica Street Lane for an in-depth analysis of life, the universe and real ale. I don't see him very often and I always wonder why I don't make more effort, he's a really nice young bloke. He's dealing with a break-up with his Ozzy girlfriend who's come to the end of her working visa in the UK and has been forced out of the country. He's dealing with it really well, much better than I would have when I was his age.

Better day tomorrow for everyone.
