8 years ago I hid on the top floor of the Amazon offices in London, with a single clear objective that had nothing to do with work
The British & Irish Lions were playing in New Zealand and I had every intention of watching it during work hours
A senior chap, and boss, did come over for a bit of patter with the lads
Which made subtly hiding our screen to watch triflingly challenging
But he was a good lad and good sense what was going on, and aptly left us to our own devices.
The Lions are playing at 11am today for me, and I don't intend to change my habits.
