Bah. I'm not getting any LJ notifies and LJ has dorked at least one of my icons, replacing it with two bald strangers hugging each other. I deleted it. Is anyone else having trouble?

Humbug. I don't rate an invitation to the office Christmas party though contractors directly paid by the company do.

Greg isn't getting that trip to Germany either, at least this year. Surprise, surprise. He's going to Singapore for 10 days next week instead to do the work there. I'd go too and spend some time in Malaysia but the notice is too short to get off work and the person I work most with is away in the UK for 5 weeks starting about that time. Sigh. I'm just hoping for a holiday up north early next year as we totally missed out this year.

Oh, well. The sun is shining outside. It's so beautiful, I'll have to resist the lure of my book and go for a walk at lunchtime.

I wouldn't mind so much if people didn't talk about it in front of me. :-(

Yeah, that's even worse, especially when the people don't realise they're been insensitive...

Are you still working in the city area - I was thinking it would be nice to catch up and have lunch with you before Christmas. :-)

Argh! Just got a notify for this (old ones are slowly coming through). And yes, I'd love to meet you for lunch! My contract finishes at Christmas anyway so that would be great.

Where do you suggest? Do you know any good places? There are quite a few interesting-looking ones on Khyber Pass and I heard the pub (Cock and Bull) is good.

No worries - I'd only just posted this a little while ago. :-) The Cock & Bull sounds good to me - what day would be good for you? (I'm flexible)

[vilakins.livejournal.com]

Me too! Any day when it's not raining! And yes, that's hard to predict. :-P This week or next before it gets too crazy? Tomorrow or Friday even, if the weather doesn't turn bad?

I thought it might be an old post because I'm getting lots of them right now.

How about this Friday - I'm free then... :-)

[vilakins.livejournal.com]

OK! I can bring my lunch if it looks dicey and have it for dinner if necessary. Cool! :-D

12? 12:30? I guess if the pub's full (being Friday) we can easily find somewhere else.

[imhilien.livejournal.com]

How about I meet you outside the C & B just after 12.30 tomorrow? :-)

[vilakins.livejournal.com]

OK, unless it's raining. What's your phone number? Mine's 025 850 851.

[imhilien.livejournal.com]

Yes, gotta watch that weather...my number is 021 129 9859. See you tomorrow. :-)

Cool! :-D
