Well first day was good, commute better than expected about 50 mins each way - still keen on the folding bike though. Am working with mainly women for the first time in my life (several of whom are part-time) - I think that might help with my issue with totally disconnecting from family while at work, as there was plenty of talk of children. Might mean I need to update my wardrobe though - what I could get away with in a windowless room full of sweaty male geeks might not work so well here, judging by outfits I saw today - I haven't bought any new clothes in years and my mum kept nagging me when she was here - so maybe it is time and this might be enough of a nudge.

Can get decent free coffee - a big plus!

The rush this morning didn't seem too bad today - and tomorrow is not a work day - so a nice gentle intro really.
