No shows today, but hanging out at Speigelgardens all night.
Thursday was my colleague Steinunn's last day working at the RCN. The following day her and her parnter Nick were driving to London to live and work their for just under a year before moving back to Steinunn's homeland, Iceland. We had a lovely afternoon tea for her in the office with lots of yummy scones and brownies from Lynda who does RCN's catering. After work, a good group of us walked up the Meadows and got a plum spot in the Speigelgarden. I nipped back home to get a warmer jacket before starting to indulge in ridiculously overpriced beer. We also saw Jilly for the first time in a few weeks since her wedding. She'd been on her honeymoon in the Dominican Republic and came back so tanned I just stared in awe for an hour or two! Steinunn will be much missed in the office, I think all of us would one day love to go and visit her in Iceland! In a strange twist, her leaving means I get to stay at the RCN for longer, as I was temping here while she took some leave. We ended up kicking on until after midnight, not bad considering almost all of us had work the next day!
