Well, I am now officially a man of Leeeeisure.
Took the car to the office and did the handover which went far better than I expected.
They didn't expect the amount of work I had done. I prepepared 3 reports. One detailing the top 25 accounts with all info on contacts, issues, what makes them tick etc. A second report on the underperforming accounts. Why, how to try to reverse (if possible) and how to move forward. And a last one of leads I have which I was working on. Mostly done in my own time as it was several hours of work.
Had some very nice things said to me by my colleagues which was great and then got dropped off at Birmingham International Station and made my way back to Glossop 1st class ... which was very pleasant.
Called in at the bike shop and had a natter with Jamie and some other guys which was lighthearted and funny. Then walked home in the sun. It was all quite surreal. I was expecting to have a wobble and maybe feel pressure of leaving employment with nothing sorted for the first time in my life.
I didn't.
So, off to football today (a friend is picking me up as he has a spare ticket for City v Watford). Not my team, but football is football and I enjoy the craic.
Out for a meal with friends tonight.
Sunday - Up early and on the 8.30 am train to London with my mate Mark. We have tickets for the West Ham v United game. That will be a great day out.
Monday is moving Aliya into Sheffield Uni.
Tuesday - no plans (yet).
Wednesday - Working on phase 4 of garden with a neighbour then off to Old Trafford for the United v Rochdale cup game late afternoon. As I have no car I'll be getting used to rail travel!
Thursday - Garden again to complete phase 4.
Within all that I'm determined to get a training regime in place. Running initially as I wasn't to get fit enough to get back onto the fells - but also bikes to I don't muller my knees.
So - Without thinking about doing anything I'm literally a week down!
I'll get properly sorted as I have a very long list of jobs I need to sort. Some very important that I need to get onto soon.
