Back to un-real life

[doire]

I’m not at work. Data submission was submitted on time. And as soon as I have written and emailed a rant report on the missing incomplete and incorrect data that has consumed practically every waking hour for the past weeks I shall be able to be on holiday. It looks like I’ll have plenty of reading to help me wind down.

I'm also the proud possessor of a certificate for conversational Japanese at entry level 3.
It must be more recognition that I stuck with the course to the end rather than have any proficiency as I’ve forgotten it all.
There was rather a mis-match between the course aim that I be able to be polite and my aim that I be able to read manga more fluently

Saiyubito (and Wild Adapter 3 & 4, but they’re for Jess) have arrived. I like the rough sketches. In many cases I prefer them to final work. There’s one I don’t think I know the finished piece- Kouryo, no a very young Sanzo, with a ringed staff. What are they called? The British, military, equivalent would be a Jingling Johnny, but they must have their own name.
