Thanks RTL.  :D
Hope it is a hugely interesting day for us all so we have masses to write about.....

BTW, I was searching for the bit you have to add giving permission for use after my death, and found this which may help contributors:
"Diaries can record 12th May and reflect back over the past year and look forward to the future and life beyond this year."

Hello everyone.
I have started making my notes. We had quite a hailstorm last night so will be checking for damage /debris around the house. So, that will get mentioned.

Well, it sounds like we are all poised to write about our day.  Thanks mowsehowse for adding that.  I think it will make for interesting reading to see people's reflections and thoughts on the future.  Not that we can read them, but perhaps our direct/indirect ancestors might see these one day.
I am just travelling to work on the bus.  I have a 14 hour work day :-\ ahead and feeling tired already at the prospect of it.  Of course, I can't write about that but I will be writing about what I do either side and definitely some reflections on last year and thoughts for the future.  Will be far too tired when I get in to do it but do plan to do it at some point within next week.
Thanks everyone for participating.  I really do think this will be of historical importance one day. :)

Gosh RTL.... fingers crossed you have a good day. You really are a hero.
You can't write about your work, but you can make oblique references to the temperament of colleagues and clients, and how that made you feel.
I have already been for a sea front walk in the sun.... hugs to you.x

Thanks Mowsehowse, perhaps you are right.  It will have to be oblique as people have to be so careful these days. 
Hope you enjoyed your seaside walk .. sounds lovely! 
I am not looking forward to working 14 hours but hopefully it will go fast.  Hugs to you too. You are such great support to people  :) Xx
