The weather has turned from being able to sit with the patio doors open at the weekend to a hail storm today. The sun came out around tea time with a spectacular rainbow across the sky as Barney and me set off for our evening walk.
Work was fairly busy today, testing a routine to split some spreadsheets three ways for different market sectors. It's clumsy, unwieldy and takes ages to run. It's a really bad way to run a business, and my next job is to write a report for the group accountant to explain why using spreadsheets to store data is not a viable way to manage our systems.
Rant of the day. Before opening my account with First Direct I had a Halifax account with a platinum visa card. I cancelled it a couple of months ago, cut up the cards, and got a refund of the outstanding credit balance. Today I had a statement through with a transaction for £40.00 for an AA subscription. How on earth can they carry on charging things to a cancelled card? Haven't rung them yet, but I am going to be cross with them when I do. Grrrr.
No time for writing today, but I'm going to mull things over when I drive down to Birmingham tomorrow.
