And that is the first full week of 2026 complete. And I didn’t write the wrong year down once at work, which has to be a record. Because it was a full week at work, and a particularly snowy and icy one too, I have done literally nothing of note, been nowhere exciting, and have taken none pictures. Essentially, I just survived and worked.

Well that is it, I guess. We may as well kiss September goodbye. It's near as not over and done with, and as I am on a training course for the next three days (lucky me) I will do nothing of particular note in the coming days. I still have time to complete another book though, so I'm not writing off my reading month just yet, but definitely nowhere near 20 books this time around.

September is passing by quickly, don't you think? Not quite sure we have ended up in the final third of the month already, but there we go. Good news for me is that I have finished the final module project write up for my apprenticeship, one more group session, a review with my coach, and the assessment to go and I can put it all behind me.

And there we have it. Easter over (well all bar the shouting and consumption of left over chocolate/scramble for cheap eggs at the supermarkets), and April well on its way to reaching its conclusion. Had a pretty good week to be fair as I was only in work for two days. Wednesday off to go and see Kinky Boots in Brum (yes - again) and then pretty much shopping, lazing, reading and exercising (less of the latter) for the remainder of the weekend.

Blimey. This month is racing away from us too, isn't it? Almost the middle of April. I've given up trying to figure out how, but like it or not it is true. I know I've been super busy at work this week which probably allows for some of my lack of comprehension of the passage of time, but hey. It is what it is.
