Quiet as a Skinny Church Mouse

I have just managed to complete a second week working from home. Having a small period of quiet after a busy start to 2011 has really helped get things back on an even keel. It’s been fun to be able to do my work but also spend time with the family and also Pich. Next week looks like it might be more of the same before I start travelling with a trip to Zurich towards the end of the month. On the other hand I am missing the fine food of some of the restaurants where I normally go – eating Maxime’s leftovers, soggy half eaten biscuits and cold spinach really doesn’t compare. That plus the fact that it’s Lent (meaning a self imposed embargo of chocolate and fresh milk) mean that I suspect I’ll be one skinny church mouse in six weeks time; either that or my Saturday trips to McDonalds with Maxime need to be a bit naughtier...
