First working day of the year

Something of a struggle to get up this morning, after two consecutive late nights and a definite case of the cold that has been doing the rounds for the last week or so. Fortunately, after a couple of rounds of vitamin I and a hot shower, I got my act together and got into work, only to find the place almost empty, despite my tardiness.

After a largely uneventful day spent helping a colleague with a scalability study, I left later than usual and went round to see A. After sitting in on a bit of tech support — configuring a new iPhone for someone — we did a bit of bouldering followed by a handful of gentle routes.
