Lucky you managed to get the day off for a bit of it.

had a painful call with the builders last night. Due to prices of building materials going up our project is likely to rise in cost by 10% at least so that's an extra ยฃ4k we have to find down the back of the sofa.

raw materials, packaging, worst of all is shipping containers out of the far east - they're four times what they were a year or so back, and keep rising. Not sure why

my neighbour works in transport journalism - apparently all the containers are in the wrong places. Sounds daft but so many delivered have been made without a return that there's a global shortage of containers. Shows how finely-balanced the just-in-time logistics system is.

I would like to take this opportunity to apologise to the entire class.

my brother in law moved out last night. He's been living with us since October so it's great to have the place back to ourselves... the week before building work begins for three months. Oh well.

his mental health has been on a downward spiral for years, last time I saw him about 5 years ago he was a shadow of the person I'd known. He'd pulled a couple of his own teeth out because "that's how they listen to you", paranoid, delusional, the whole nine yards. I think he checked out a LONG time ago, but it's still sad.
