It was an interesting day at work - a bit slow for Le and AC because they were searching for things to keep them busy enough, while I was busy beavering away on Minutes, organising Police for night works, services for some of the vehicles ... and the list went on. At lunchtime. they wandered over in my direction and started talking about "the Change" - which is not to be confused with "the switch" which is coming up at work in a couple of weeks. no ... This was the big one - the hot flushes, the irritability ... yes ... that change! It was front of mind for Le (who has just turned 30) because a friend had called and said her entire family, including her husband, had moved out of the house until the change was behind her. Then talk turned to symptoms, management, duration etc and since I had worked on a video about Menopause a few years back, I did have something to contribute to the conversation!
Trivia was more fun though - even though we didn't win - and weren't even part of the four-way tie for third! Flam had driven down from Gatton (a quick day trip as part of the job he's been doing up there) but still managed to arrive before "eyes down" - or at least "eyes on the first picture round". Ni and St arrived very shortly after - which was just as well as we had chosen "All Things Science" for one of our bonus rounds!
On the way home from Trivia Sooz notes the moon - big, yellow and close to the horizon (well, closer than we've seen it for a while). Sooz indulged me and we went to the beach so I could have a look at the moon over the sea - and take a photo ... which didn't turn out as well as I had hoped. By the time we got home, it was quite quite late and it was all I could do to fall in to bed ... and set the alarm for an hour later in the morning!
