    Crikey, Radish...it's like entertainment central for you at the minute: I'm WELL jealous! :D

    Hope you are having fun. I've heard loads of good things about Ross Noble - you'll have to let me know what you think.

    And as for Harry Potter, I have to take two little boys to see it, but would quite happily go to see it on my own. :D

    And now I'm so tired, forgot I was supposed to be at work early today, remembered whilst in the shower, so some expletives :eek: where used. Managed to get here on time, but feel all out of sorts, eating breakfast at work is not right

    Ross Noble - was so funny, jaw hurting funny. He was on for 2 1/2 hours, he kept telling us we where getting value for money.

    Godson enjoyed his day out, and loved Harry Potter, he fell asleep on the way home, so think we tired him out, although he wasn't to happy in the restaurant as they gave him the children's menu and some stickers & crayons. But his little sister was made up with them when we got back

    Bought some wrapping paper and fizz on Sunday, just need to buy some presents so I have something to wrap. So a tiny bit more for Christmas done

    Think this weekend we are going to the Manchester Markets

    Another week gone by, plus off work today, should be Christmas shopping but so far have only manged to buy BF's, so I can pick that up tomorrow

    The Manchester Market trip was a disaster, it was far to cold and to busy and as I hate shopping it didn't make for a good combination, so nothing bought apart from food and some mulled wine :) which was the only good point

    Thinking its far to cold to get up, so quite tempted to stay in bed, but really should get a wiggle on and do something.

    Think another brew is in order, and I'll put a wash on for BF

    I think this might be refered to as 'one of those days' Radish.

    Chillax. With the emphasis on 'chill'. ;)

    I spent the day chilling at BF's house, then drove home about 12 after all the ice had melted off my car (to save on de-icer)

    Haven't done much this week, picked up some more Christmas (PS3, and 2 games ) presents and have also decided that I'm going to buy my parents a flat screen HD TV to bring them up todate with technology, so have tasked BF to find the best TV at the mo. Should be a surprise for them as when I asked my mum wanted she wanted for Christmas, she asked for a bottle of Oil of Ulay and slippers for my dad :)

    Only 3 hours left at work, then pack my bag and drive down to BF's for the weekend, which seems a bit mad as its colder where he is then where I am

    Plans for the weekend, might be just to stay inside and keep warm

    Hi Radish, just caught up. Sorry to hear about your dad. I hope the increase in meds helps with his heart rate, good news about his cholesterol. Is it an angioplasty he is going to have?

    Thanks CathT

    Dad has been to the hospitalto see the specialist, heart racing again so another increase in the amount of beta-blockers is in order.
    But they have booked him in for an exploratory on the 20th Dec, where they will go through a vein in his groin up to his heart and have a look inside. He doesn't have to knocked out for this, so should be in and out the same day. They are doing this as they are not 100% what is wrong with him, so can't treat him yet

    Order a TV for them which should be delivered tomorrow (Tues), rang them to tell them that a present is being delivered, Mum asked is it wrapped so I had to tell her it wasn't as it was to big to be gift wrapped. Dad was in the background asking "If I have bought him a car" :rotfl:must be the meds

    Nearly finished Christmas (1 to get as out of stock) and Birthdays (2 to be delivered) shopping. Just need to get it all wrapped and packed, ready for putting in the car when I finish work for the year and go back Home for Christmas (only 13 more days to suffer at work)

    Did nothing at the weekend apart from put up the tree, stayed in wrapped up in dressing gown, BF made lots of nice warm comfort food as well so I was a happy bunny until I had to drive back home in the fog on sunday

    Must also ring mortgage people tonight and make O/P that will take me under £20K :)

    BF has a viewing, BF has a viewing :j

    In an hours time, so funny watching him clean up :rotfl:

    Not sure why I am so excited - its only a viewing

    I'm thinking its a sign as we have been going out with each other for 7 year, 7 months and 7 days (least it's not 666)

    He has also put my Christmas presents under the tree and told me I'm not allowed to look :mad::D
