    Well? Did you .. erm ... reveal yourself? Did they look at you blankly like an alien had landed? I'm dying to know having been lurking (I mean doing something productive) here today.

    I did reveal myself to the lady:rolleyes: :D She got into a bit of a flap though...but it all went without a hitch and everything was as it should be.:cool:

    Angelflower - you are welcome to come and share although I dont know how much will be left once OH and 2 hungry teenagers have been at the chicken ......there will be plenty of salad left thats one think I am sure of:rolleyes:
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.

    Hello all!
    We're driving over to Blackburn this evening to collect hubby's new car!
    He's so excited, bless him!

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    Glad the mystery shop went o.k. I'm not surprised they were shocked. I would be too. Don't work in retail or catering(well not working at all at the moment but hey) so hopefully I am safe (for now!).

    Linda - hope your hubbys car is lovely - many hours of safe and happy motoring. You did make me laugh though - when I read cheap, cheap - you sounded like a budgie. Lol - think I need to go lie down - all this excitement!
