A grey miserable rainy start to today. Awoke to the sound of rain beating on our bedroom window. A horrible Monday morning. In fact, I heard on the radio whilst travelling up to Dorking that this Monday in January has more people staying in bed and not going to work than any other in the year - described as the most depressing Monday of the year. This didn't seem to be borne out by the traffic jams on the M3 which were the worst since I started this blog and seemed to suggest that rather than staying in bed everybody had decided to take a motoring holiday on the British motorway system. Before leaving for Surrey, I hoisted the Lincolnshire flag in honour of my Auntie Mim in Cleethorpes whose birthday it is today. Tomorrow it will be the Stars and Stripes in honour of the inauguration of the 44th President and the removal of George W. Bush.
Returning to Salisbury in the evening, I attended the second of two Alpha Course training sessions at St. Paul's. Very inspirational and reallly did dispel the gloomy day. It has now turned very cold with temperatures just above freezing. Tomorrow I have to get up early again to travel up to London for a meeting at 10 a.m. with counsel, clients and claimants at our Wood Street office in the City.
