Bored of the Things : Return of the Colleague

So, m'colleague is back from various travels. Only to discover a big pile of work and that his desk has been moved the noisiest part of our offices here in sunny Milton Keynes. I'm still occupying my bosses office which is at least quiet.

I had actually planned on giving both m'colleague and his person-sitting girlfriend plenty of space and generally avoiding them until I found somewhere else to stay. Unfortunately my fathers house pre-dates central heating, and is normally heated by a large warm natural fire in the lounge. Sadly no chimney sweep has been involved for some time, and the upstairs of the house is such that no human, or small animal could survive up there during winter. Saturday and Sunday night were, shall we say, interesting. Saturday wasnt so bad. Sunday however got so cold that I had to wear a pair of jeans to bed, and several layers of bedding, onto which more things were piled. Almost like wearing all your clothes and then sleeping under all your posessions. It's a very comfy bed though! :)

Monday morning when I woke up I still couldnt feel my legs, and a thin layer of ice had formed on a glass of water next to the bed (thats how cold it was!), and I closely resembled the picture on this posting. So both m'colleague and girl have insisted that those conditions are insane, and funny as it maybe it's not actually possible to survive in them. So was all snug and warm back at theirs last night - and very pleasant it was too. Hopefully my father has procured an electric heater for that room over the course of today so I shall be back there tonight, but in the warm!

I'm amassing a rather large amount of laundry as well...

Today has been thoroughly unproductive.
