    Talking about the X word. I am more organised than I have ever been in previous years. Now not only awaiting the Wii from carphone warehouse I have also just ordered a Wii fit bundle from Game as I know no-one will have any by *mas. This will be a joint present and like I said I have never even had any thoughts about it in September before.

    Triker glad you got a car sorted

    Grrrr - DS has come in and watched some TV and has now decided to go to bed. He was supposed to be cleaning up the tea things as he wasnt here for the challenge. Guess who'll have to do them now!

    Better sign off now so I'll see all you lovely ladies tomorrow

    Ciao

    Ooooh that sounds posh....do you know what it means? :rotfl: xx

    Sorry I really was making it up so have googled it and found:

    PPSA - Postage, Printing, Stationery & Advertising
    This is self-explanatory and includes any costs covered by the above.

    Do you think that could be it?

  • Denisefowler - lovely picture, you must be so proud of him.

    Valli - Good grief, Penfold!

    Dustykitten - How's your DS?

    Froddington - How's your Dad?

    Had a not very productive day. Managed all my dailies and de-cluttered a hotspot. Other than that, I've spent all day with a colleague at her house and she smokes, so I've come home with a headache and my asthma's playing up, on top of the cold I already had!:confused:

    We've spent all day sorting out and dividing tasks to cover for another colleague who is off sick. She's been off 2 weeks, signed off for another 2, should be back for a week, but then is in hospital and off for another few days. Poor girl, you might think? :mad: She has so much out-of-date, overdue, incomplete and work-of-fiction paperwork, you would not believe. I now have to drive to Swansea and Caerphilly tomorrow, while my colleague goes elsewhere, just to pull in the paperwork to maintain our contract. I spoke to one of her cnadidates todya and she was so pleased to hear from me, s she hasn;t seen anyone for 7 weeks!!! That will definitely be passed on to my Line Manager, as they are supposed to be seen fortnightly. I'm not a happy bunny.

    Oh well, I'm off to bed, still snuffling, with a :coffee: of Prince Charle's Ginger Cordial.

    Hugs to all, night night, God Bless. x

    PS Anyone else got very small writing??? And a miniscule window?
