Early the day, as ah’m oan mah holibobs. New years plans anyone? Any fun stuff to share?

No plans this year.

Probably for the best tbh as the engineer scheduled for on call this yr has been off sick and put in another line means I get the joy of on call instead of him.

Just hop I remember how all this shit works if I get phoned

What’s your on-call rates like? Worth a sober Hogmanay?

Normal rates plus a £500 bonus

The tax office loves it

That is decent at least, as a programmer I strive to ensure zero on-call required

Hey, I am a frog in the south of Aberdeen. Nothing planned for the first time forever. Probably a couple of beers with the wife and a movie with kiddo.

Cannae be bothered this time around

Yeah, roof is intact at least. But some ingress we can’t figure oot, and damp plaster, so something isn’t right

And I’ve never done wild swimming at all, no wet suit for me either, so might just pass
