well the house looks a lot better than it did this morning, I've reached the bottomg of the washing basket and dinner is in the pot (beef stew - but stomach not liking it very much - think I'll be having a baked potato instead!).

I still can't face getting down on my hands and knees to tackle the floors so logged back on here to procrastinate.

Oooooh you're not going to believe this - the BK just rang back, she spoke to boss and told him she was leaving, praised me up and told him how it could work. He thinks it's a great idea. She also said that as he's already told me I'm redundant, it's only fair that I still get the redundancy and holiday pay He agreed :rotfl:

RESULT! Congratulations! Yay!

Afternoon Everyone....peeping out from behind the sofa to say "Watch out for holes in swiss cheese!" IMHO the universe has already done it's best to silence Hawkin... but he got that computer voice fitted.... I was definately in the scared sh1tless camp this morning - and I understand that switching the darn thing on was just the beginning. I'm a tad oversensitive about the end of the world, being bought up as a child in a religion that was relying on it!

It's a great shame really all the money invested in the project couldn't have gone on something more worthwhile, like solving the real problems in the world, poverty, hunger, Aids etc, not to mention global warming and the melting of the polar ice caps.

Couldnt agree more with what else the money could have been spent on much more usefully at the least.

An article in the Guardian a couple of days back made the point that if everything does go "belly up" with this experiment that the scientists have made the point that we may not realise for about 4 years. Dont know how they've worked out that that is the likely timespan. All this stuff goes rather over my (non-technical) head. Obviously - I am interested in just what they might find out - if anything! as I have a bit of an "experimental" attitude to life myself - but there are limits to curiosity that I dont think it worth going beyond and I am uncomfortably aware that the Mayans predicted SOMETHING very drastic for us all thousands of years ago - at 21 December 2012! Errrr...what? Hopefully they got it wrong. On the other hand - maybe they got it right - but the something drastic is a major change for the better - in which case, it would be a case of "yay! bring on the champagne".

It just concerns me that one species on the planet (ie us) seems to think it has the right to do what the heck it likes - totally regardless of everything else we are sharing this planet with. We have a beautiful planet here (with its mountains and grass and oceans and rivers etc etc - where we could have had some dead lump of rock it was difficult to survive on - but we have been given a multitude of resources and beauty to live with) - and should be regarding ourselves as caretakers of it - not the attitude of "kid in a sweetshop - what can I grab next - its all here for our taking" - which seems to be the attitude of much of the human race unfortunately.

I guess the tune of "Its my party and I'll cry if I want to" comes to mind - but adapted to "Its my planet - and I'll cry if I want to".

evening all,

first day back to work today after three weeks off, I am a bit tired tonight, but its quite nice to be back, got loads done today.

We had salmon, cous cous and brocoli for tea, it was delish, mixed the cous cous with thai spice and a knob of butter yum.

DD just gone up to have a bath, and hope she is tidying her room, I did a Troo earlier , got in from work put the dinner on, shoved a load in the wm, hoovered round, and got totally fed up with the pair of them leaving all their stuff around, so went off on one , why do they pick something up use it and then drop it where they are :wall: :wall: .
