Olive Oyls 12-month Countdown

OliveOyl_2

Travel insurance only £28 for the year :j:j:jbut not available through Quidco :sad: (yeah, I want jam on it )

Contacted the train company because the machines for collecting pre-ordered tickets :money:are somewhat unreliable at the station and no-one could help last week when I couldn't get the machine to recognise my booking references :mad::mad:

At work I have seriously peed off FK, and I know I will end up paying for it (caught her out on an error, which I wouldn't have bothered to point out except she blamed me for the fallout........) Fortunately I think the boss could see the whole picture, but I know that she'll be looking to repay the favour......

Last night DD arrived home from holiday with her Dad. She's off today, back to uni. We had a lovely time last night when I got in, curled up on the sofa with the remains of a bottle of wine and chatted about stuff.

The stuffed mushrooms that I thought I'd put in the freezer have been found, all furry in the microwave where I'd put them to cool away from the cat

Oops - that is the sort of thing I do.

My most frequent is that I buy ready cooked hot chickens from the supermarket, but can't put them in the fridge until they are cool, so they go in the microwave to keep them out of the way of the cat.......where they remain for some time :rolleyes:

I'll also have to think about a list for lodger who will be returning to cat-sit, otherwise she won't know what bins to put out when etc.

This morning at 7am DS1 turned up unexpectedly He had very kindly arranged for a friend to take him to the airport so as not to put me out again......there's NO way I could do 150 mile round trip this morning! :rotfl::rotfl:He was supposed to be here for 2 weeks but there was an admin error :rolleyes: :rotfl:

Erm, if you're potting up the hebes and not buying travel insurance - you're a Naughty Olive!

LOL at DS1 turning up!
