    Well, my "2009 plan" is very long! I am trying to be realistic with it, yet putting down all the things that I feel I need to try harder with.

    KC, the mystery shops I need to input are "biggies" ie they are multi-part ones so as long as they are all done by the end of the job, it is ok. Still, I really need to do them, and this is the sort of thing I have on my plan "don't leave things until the last minute".........:rolleyes:

    Football - yes it is a fairly big thing here - we are a small city, and very close - it is often said we are more like a very big village. Therefore, our team is very often high in the conversation agenda! It is a very family friendly club, too and does lots of community work and work with the local schools, sports camps etc. Today is the local derby.........emotions will be running high for sure! My boss rang me last night to say he had two tickets spare if I wanted to take DS - no way was I going to miss that opportunity :D

    Shaun, you sound as though you are making plenty of plans too! They sound fairly sensible.

    Thanks hypno, sounds good (the multi part shop thing). The being a big village sounds even better, very life-enhancing.

    I've been working for ages to play with avatars, its taken so long its practically lunchtime. Bye for now!

    No problem!

    We won the football - 2-0 so very satisfying, and of course it was free so even more satisfying :D:D:D

    We have just got home - cold though, so having a hot coffee and half an hour sit down before we have a blitz of the lounge........then we will sit and watch Take That later this evening in relative calm. DD wants to have duvets on the sofa.......sounds good to me :D

    Glad the footie went your way. Hope you feel better soon.

    I've nicked the plan thing too, not that I'm posting it up but I think it'll be good to look back on over the year.
