blahblah
New lappy is lovely.
Baby gators have arrived and are very very wee and cute.
Work is still v. busy, both at work and private work. I don't have enough time in the day.
There was a little fox on site today, living in one of the flats - the site managers decided to try and get rid of it, so we all got into position, blocking doorways and stairs so it could be shooed away in the direction we wanted it to go.
One of the labourers, Junior, said he'd catch it with his bare hands, but everyone said that was a bad idea. He was really keen, but no one quite knew how to explain 'bitten by a fox' in the accident book...anyway, turns out it was lucky we didn't let Junior have a go, cos when the fox was shooed down the stairs Junior saw it, screamed, and jumped over a wall. Turns out he thought a fox was about the size of a pet rabbit...he's not from round these parts. And he won't forget that in a hurry.
Poor fox though, I don't see why it couldn't have been left alone. I don't think it enjoyed being pushed about by loads of people in hiViz etc.
Had the health and safety folk around today, because there was an accident yesterday - stair collapsed with a labourer on it. Meant we all had to mind ourselves and be good. Apparently the site has a 'safe site' award - and yesterday was the seventh medium-major accident they've had. Wouldn't like to be on one of their unsafe sites.
Went and saw a friend's new studio space today. It's lovely, and I would be jealous if I didn't have my workshop. It'll be a great bunch of people by the sound of it though.
's all I got.
