Some days the two-minute walk from the car to the office is the most challenging bit of my morning.

Just after I lock the car up, I'm generally holding my car keys, my bag, and my office pass card; by the time I reach the office front door I expect to have stowed the keys in my pocket, clipped the card on a belt loop, and slung the bag over my shoulder.

This morning I was also carrying the hard disk from the Dension (the weather is now cold enough that I need to take this indoors in the daytime as well as at night) which I needed to put in a coat pocket, and a collection of rubbish from the car bin which I needed to throw into a bin when I got inside. Just not dropping that lot with only two hands was moderately tricky; actually arranging to sort it all out without slowing down was quite a challenge, and I suspect nothing else I do this morning will require as much concentration!
