Time to start closing the windows, freezing the ice blocks, and preparing the fans (or wallet if you've got proper air conditioning)!

Try and get more sleep after the work Xmas party, got home late (for me anyway). I unfortunately was seated right across from the split system and now I feel all blocked up in the sinuses. Also the chairs were hard as rocks, then we went to another place afterwards and the chairs were wire crates with wooden boards on them, = sore arse. Also was relying on a colleague for a lift home so had to wait until they were ready to go. Middle aged people problems ๐Ÿ˜”

Aw man , that doesn't sound like a very good xmas party tbh. Definitely a good day to be resting up and taking it easy. I hope your workplace has climate control for tomorrow...

We've got no aircon so the boss has given us tomorrow off, so that's something I guess. At least the food was ok last night!

Thank goodness! It'll be good to get some pay and rest up without having to collapse from heat exhaustion...
