Today was a sad day for me as I finally ran out of Burbury aftershave. It had been a long time in the making. My current spending priorities are: contact lenses, laptop repair and new trainers. Aftershave does not feature on this list. However, I have decided to make a new category for things that are non essential, but are too cool to be without. For example, Burbury aftershave, Tropicana OJ and Starbucks decaf soya latte.
The "frame the name-plate" project (that I talked about previously) is going ahead! I've commissioned an artist to do the work. It will be complete within a fortnight. I should probably explain, the "name-plate" is a piece of the first boat ever owned by my rowing club. It has great historical importance.
This is my week of extreme yoga. I'm trying to get flexible again. Have been to one session already... three more to go.
On Sunday night somebody tried to break into my room. I watched a skinny guy with a baseball cap try to pull my window open for a couple of minutes (he didn't realise that it was bolted in a semi-open position). Then I got bored and shouted at him. That wasn't much fun! If he had hung around for a while, then I would have asked him in for a cup of tea and maybe even a shot of Irish whiskey.
Over the weekend, a team of students and myself organised a party for the housekeeper. This entailed a barbeque, a presentation, an outdoor movie and a bop with a late bar and live DJ. The housekeeper was presented with a calender of guys she knows with their kit off. It went down really well.
Today in lab, I'm realigning a laser. It's hard.
