Curse the festive season
« on: January 01, 2020, 12:12:34 PM »
I have been making a variety of social arrangements of the "See you tomorrow at 10" variety and put them in my calendar.

Of course, all these depend on me knowing that today is Wednesday and not Thursday.

I thought today was Thursday.  redface:

So in other words it's situation normal and nothing to do with the festive season.....   whistle:

In your case it's more understandable because back then they were using Stonehenge instead of a calendar...  whistle:

Well not having worked for 7 years it does get a bit confumbling

Normally you get cued as to where you are in the week by things like the dustbin emptying (runs a day later this week and next), milkman (didn't deliver last two Wednesdays), football fixtures (well effed up), day time TV schedules (all changed) and shops being empty Mon-Fri as people are at work (they're not)

So it's Thursday as far as I'm concerned

Isn't it bizarre that I can remember Taenia solium from O-Level biology at Bog Street Comprehensive but can't remember what I had for lunch yesterday...  rubschin:
