I think today was the busiest advice bureau with 18 groups of people (some of which were one person). I had over 40 people present which made me so busy I could not find time to eat the Kit-Kat I had bought before starting.
I have had 40 people present before, but that involved three substantial groups adding to about 20 plus 20 others.
Because I don't run appointments I cannot be certain how many people I will see and some bureaux have been quite quiet.
We are trying to encourage people to phone, write or attend during the week. However, I work hard to make sure that I do the Saturday bureau myself. Officially it starts at 11 and runs for an hour. However, I normally try to start about 10.30am to clear the queue. I did manage to finish at 12.15pm which I thought was quite good.
I wanted to take my 5 year old swimming later as I have the St Patrick's day parade and a party event tomorrow which will prevent me taking her swimming.
It is looking worryingly cold tomorrow. The last time I played the guitar for St the Patrick's day parade my fingers got numb. A previous year was spectacularly wet.
Hopefully it will be reasonable weather tomorrow.
