light my fire

The torch has landed and is currently making its way around the UK. It will be coming past where I work on June 17th just as work finishes, I was really looking forward to seeing the torch. I'm not going to the games, so this would be the closest I could get and lets face it, its not often an olympic torch visits where you are.
Unfortunately, it seems like I'm not going to be there on that day- I'm being sent to Cambridge for a week of work. I shall have to make do with this video instead... complete with slightly cheesy epic music.

Its been so busy in work recently, I feel like I'm barely keeping on top of things. I had the added joy of some charming bug (tonsilitis, cough, feeling like crap) 2 weeks back too on top of computer woes and grumpy colleagues- just to really add to the pile...
Still at least tomorrow we're going to have a wee jubilee street party- inside, in the lab coffee room so we can try bring some joy before the extra long bank holiday weekend.
 I for one am really looking forward to having 4 days away from work, especially as I have been in and out of work at the weekends too much recently.
