I started the day (05:04!) circulating for comment a draft bid to CEHR.

After a few hours sleep, I got to work about 11:00. Having already talked through options informally and reached agreement on details, I today issued formal redundancy notices to Helen adn Sha-Lee. Both will leave CVS within the next month and will be sorely missed for their professionalism, their skills and their knowledge; we will also lose their personalities around the office; and we will lose two close friends and colleagues.

Meanwhile, the Watford LIVE! community arts festival is in full swing. I should be out immersing myself in the great events and performances. But I am tired, I have a mountain of work and my mood tends toward the maudlin rather than the celebratory.
