When I was in full time employment, Mondays were not my favourite day of the week - especially after a busy Sunday. Nowadays, things are much more relaxed. A lazy start to the day: coffee, orange juice and a scan of the news headlines. Quick check of the online diary: a couple of things to do, but not too hectic.First order of the day was to go to collect my car from the Golf Club: it had stayed there last night as we came home too late to make the diversion via Burhill. Arrived there about 10:30 and the place was deserted: clearly other members are also not keen on Mondays... that or the fact that it was grey and damp. Took the opportunity to check in at the Sales Office to reserve our places for Friday's St. Patrick's Day event. Looks like a fun evening!
Next stop Cobham for a six-monthly contact lens check and a quick run through Waitrose, as I am cooking tonight. No great rush as I am due to catch the 14:57 train to get to a 16:00 video conference at a head-hunter's up in Town. A leisurely lunch and off to the station.
Everything on time, changed onto the Victoria Line and arrived at my destination near Green Park with 15 minutes to spare... only to discover that the meeting had been set for 12:00 and I was actually 4 hours late. Aargh.... I checked my emails and realised that I had confused today's date with the appointment time.
Back home with my metaphorical tail between my legs: I remain a fan of my online diary, but maybe I need a secretary. Any volunteers?
