There are very few of my friends I'd be willing to go on holiday with if there was only a couple of us
As for those who'd I'd actually want to go on holiday with, the answer drops to 2. Last time I went away, I went with one of them. However, after she went to Singapore for a year, she didn't really fancy another holiday last summer.

As for the other, she's off to Ibiza for a few months next year to work a rep, and frankly that sounds like my idea of hell.

So, I'm either waiting for the next group holiday, or maybe spending a few days visiting friends around the country.

The hour after lunch
It's when I have to deal with the incompetence of the companies who email me at 1:30pm, telling me their order 'MUST GO OUT TODAY', despite the fact that our agreement with their company states that if they get their order in before Midday, it'll go out that night. Otherwise, they'll have to wait until the next day.

This happens at least 3 days a week, every week. And is almost exactly as boring as this post.
