The big problem about counting down to vacations is that the speed of the countdown is linked to the amount of things you have to do before you go. Therefore, if you have nothing to do the speed of the countdown is very slow. If, however, you are in my position and have ‘a lot’ to do then the countdown is exponentially linked to the things that I have left to do before I go. What I should do right now, is:
- Write down a list of the things I have to do.
- Stop watching television (especially is it re-runs of the three hookers and their mum)
- Go to grocery and get some tea (I actually cannot believe that houses exist without tea)
- Get onto the list
- Stop thinking about sacking all the things off as they are mostly for work and I am meant only to work 9 ’till 5 and 8 ’till 11 is just crazy unless it is on my own things
Well, I am going to skip right to number three because I can’t get anything done unless I have a plentiful supply of tea near me. In this country there is no PG tips available unless you are prepared to be robbed by the local ex-pat shop. Bah humbug, my holiday spirit is still hibernating.


I have some PG Tips.
