I need cheering up

[wellinghall]

I've had an absolutely knackering week at work - the total hours spent there haven't been too bad, but it has demanded a high level of thought and concentration, and made pretty full use of my skills. I've also had to cope with group head office, investment managers (who seem to think we work for them, rather than the other way round), trainees, accountants (sorry rustica) and our third party admin provider. And worst of all, I've got to go in tomorrow!

Home hasn't been a bundle of laughs either - I soaked my feet, socks and trousers, and cut my finger, trying to unplumb our old dishwasher (Comet will connect the new one, but not disconnect the old one, which seems odd to me); I had a hell of a time trying to wrap up my two swords; and I've still got several more parcels to wrap.

The house is a tip, I'm spending too much money on books, CDs and DVDs, drinking too much caffeine, and taking too little exercise.

OTOH, Creatrix has been taking care of me, and, er ... well, not much else springs to mind at the moment. I'm trying to keep myself going by thinking of Orkney ...

... but if anyone can tell me something to cheer me up a bit, that would help.

Thanks

You'll soon be very close to a certain northern beer as well as all that Highland Park!

Oh and the reverse cowgirl is a very crude(and silly) name for an otherwise pleasant position!

My goodness. What on earth is a reverse cowgirl?

You'd need to see Welly's previous post about the GQ magazine.

Yep! And there are now *two* breweries on Orkney (and two distilleries, and a fruit wine maker).
