    Ok ok HHC Ready Steady Go!!
  • Went home early yesterday and got 2 hours sleep before DH came home- felt a bit better so we went to Tescos...........somehow spent £30.00 more than I had budgeted - always happens when he comes with me and I was feeling c**ppy so just let it go this time. Put groceries away, cooked dinner and cleaned up the kitchen with DH, then filled a bowl with hot water and Olbas (very old bottle found lurking in the back of the cupboard but still effective) and steamed my head before going to bed.

    My sympathies to all the poorly flyfriends here!! Hoping we all get better very soon!
    Dragged myself into work to day to find that one of our customers will not be paying us for another 10 days. Apparently they are refinancing and the deal won't be in place until then. Nothing we can do to get them to pay any faster :sad:

    As for my list, well - this is the abridged version.........

    Ho hum, just had some bad news that someone we know has died :( Known him since I was tiny but more at various family things and to chat to if we saw him around iykwim. I think he was in his 50s, sure he was slightly younger than my dad. Blimin cancer :(

    Anyway hopefully normal service will be resumed tomorrow as I feel a bit sad now.

    I've decided I'm totally uninspired by what's in the freezer so will go into town shortly I think to see if there's anything at the market to inspire me. It's pouring with rain so hopefully it won't be crowded.
