European Tribune - Comments - Monday Open Thread

Monday Open Thread | 93 comments (92 topical, 1 editorial, 0 hidden)

First day back at work, struggling to get my head back into it all. One good thing about the winter break is that almost everyone is off so I don't come back to hundreds of emails.

Can relate, barely getting started again meself. Though reading Moby Dick remains fun.

How much do they pay for that job? ;)

Any idiot can face a crisis - it's day to day living that wears you out.

Re: No exciting news (4.00 / 7)

Back at work, but no children today. School heating has been off for two weeks and is struggling to start again. We did the medium term plan in coats and scarves. The output of thirty additional heat generation units (sorry, pupils) will be very welcome tomorrow.
