Only now, after a full weekend of doing very little, do I feel fully recuperated following my trip down under. A lasting, but pleasing side-effect is that I'm getting up much earlier in the mornings, so I can leave work earlier and bask in this fantastic start to the summer we're having here in Berlin.
I was cooped up for most of the last weekend trawling through legacy tax letters, which I have been ignoring for... In fact, too long to remember back! I've opened all of the letters now and after arranging them in chronological order have comitted them to binders which will make things much easier when I get round to filling in the huge annual spreadsheets that I get from my accountants to complete. This is what I will be doing most of this week, I suspect... *groans*
On the plus side, I'm only working 4 days this week as I'm travelling back to Canterbury on Thursday night for four days to finally install the roof of my parent's extension. In addition, I'll be booking a table for Leon, Yukari, Vicki and I at the Kashmir for a feast of curry on Friday night... Can't wait.
