Hunting and gathering from my desk
Well, this week has been somewhat fraught as either there were no Ocado slots to be had or I was missing the nano-second when they were released in spite of obsessive refreshing of the page at regular intervals.
However, today while waiting around for something else I took a look at Waitrose, not expecting anything, and mirabile dictu, there was a slot on Saturday which worked for us, so all I had to do then was get myself together to compile an order -
(I'd already started on filling an Ocado trolley so that I could put a trolley of the requisite value through checkout by slot-holding deadline time, to be edited as necessary before the final cut-off.)
But, anyway, there we are, with a delivery scheduled, and I think everything's there, though who knows what will turn out to be out of stock or subject to substitutions?
On top of a not very good night, spending a morning on that somewhat exhausted my nervous energies: however, I did manage to sign off approving the copy-edits on a review that has been knocking about with the journal editors for just over a year, provide some feedback on a research seminar I attended back in February which seems like the distant past in another world, and respond I hope fairly coherently to an email from a former colleague. Also made some preliminary gestures towards a life-admin thing that is bugging me.
