    Me too... it makes me realise I really haven't done anything with my life this year... (which one of my cousins reminded me about at Christmas... apparently last NYE I stood on their kitchen table and resolved to get a life...)
    .
    If it's any consolation I realise I could probably say that about nearly every year of my life.

    Happy (got it) New Year

    greenbee the standing on table thing :rotfl: at least you didn't fall, as for get a life, you have, I think, been getting your life, for you! Getting a life doesn't mean finding/needing a man, I think all us moaning about the useless ones we have should have made you realise that!

    CS same goes for you, you have been doing things for you, isn't that what really matters? Hope the hippy, hoppy new year doesn't hurt your head in the morning x

    So tomorrow I need to do my dailies and that's it, since I have posted my list for 2008 as pigpen requested, unless she chucks any more jobs our way. After a night in the public louse, she probably won't be in any fit state to :D

    Kids are looking forward to collecting their silver coins in the morning, first foot tradition DP always does for them that was done at his parents, mine never bothered with new year so was a new one to me.
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

    Can you write a note for my boss saying that although I work in IT I clearly have a fabulous understanding of our core business as I obviously know ALL about plumbing?!

    ~gets paper, licks end of pencil and starts writing~

    Dear Greenbee's boss

    Re: Greenbee

    With regard to the above personnel, I am writing to inform you that you have a *star* amongst your staff. Whilst I realise that you must know that she is absolutely indepensible in the IT area of your company operations, I would like to point out that she also has a fabulous, in depth and very practical understanding of your core business and is very experienced on the plumbing side.

    I really feel that you should consider her for promotion to the highest possible level at the highest possible speed (and appropriate remuneration).

    If you feel you cannot agree to my request, then I will have no option but to seek legal advice with a view to seeking financial compensation over your refusal to co-operate.

    Yours sincerely
    Soappie.

    Do you think that will work? BTW I've emailed you back...

    Happy New Year all :)

    Want to go to bed but my dad put damp wood on the fire which is still burning :rolleyes: So I need to wait for that to die down a bit as I get a tad bit paranoid about leaving the fire still going when I go to bed.

    Put the fire guard round it babes, and get to bed. Let the smoke detector do is job if it needs to honey. You need your kip.

    (((hugs)))

    Failing that chuck a bucket of water on it and be done!!! :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:
