Just finished sewing on some more of the boy's Beaver badges. I hate that job. Why can't they just provide the uniform with the badges pre-loaded, but undercover, and then you just rip off the cover each time a badge is completed, ala Advent calendars?

Paddling pool is out, kids are like pigs in muck and I can catch up on the Hickstead Derby

I'm on 12 hours day shifts, not a chance of getting anywhere at present It'll sort itself out eventually, just not in the best of moods this week so its trying my patience a bit!!! Besides if they are as much help as the mob at Telstra I'd end up worse off than before
