    as for the flirtin' thing I was going to do this week...did a wee bit with cute bloke but don't seem to be in the same office on the same days much at the mo but strangely enough there seems to be someone else rather interested... nothing is going to happen as he's way too young but it's still quite flattering.

    That's because you iz a babe... :kisses3:

    awww thanks Z but I'm too old be a babe!

    Feeling much better today Beanie, sore neck is always a bit worrying isn't it but must have just been a bit sleepy.

    went to work, came home bearing gifts of wine - they know me so well... got paid today so about to pay off some more and do a sort of annual review thingy...

    Well....I'm now down to £5582 which is 53.1% paid off, this time last year it was £6253 so despite buying a new car it's still down on that. Only seven months to go now!!!!

    Lots of stuff need fixed around the flat though so hoping for a backdated payrise at some time to sort that out...fingers crossed...

    actually the one I rather like is deeply committed to it all - without being a geek!:o one of the things I like about him, the other being his butt!
