Have a great weekend. Was going to say that I hope that you get to drive but after reading your description, i'm not sure that its a good idea!

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh wrote a v. long reply and the PC crashed and ate it.

The abreviated version is we're back exhausted thanks to the closure of 2 junctions of the M40 between Oxford and Birmingham... and as per normal I have tons to do today.

If only I could be that short and sweet everyday.

Tis exactly one month since I joined DooYoo. In that time I've written 60 reviews, been rated 509 times (15 free points a time), gained one crown (1500 free points) and have a points total of 39480 thats £39.48 in real money. Means I need to write 21 more reviews before I can claim a cheque for £50. Thats 19 reviews less than I was expecting to write for the same money and its happened a lot faster than I was expecting too. If I stick to the 200 review plan I'm going to be approaching £150 rather than my £100 target. Probably just as well considering how much cash we've blown this weekend.

When is the smell of urine in an odd place not indicative of actual wet urine? When its a precurser to an electrical fire of course. Not that I knew this when someone came to find me this morning in the hopes I had some air freshener handy. Fortunately it was dealt with before it reached the point of generating flames but my day has gone completely to pot. I didn't leave school until lunchtime so haven't managed to bake a shed load of cakes for the DDs to ice so that I can take them to school tomorrow. No doubt tonight will be a very late night all round.

In other exciting news DooYoo have awarded my noctural ravings about Cilit Bang! a crown which takes me to a whopping 42130 points. Still haven't got round to admitting how much we blew last weekend.

Time to return to the asylum.

Didn't get round to baking buns yesterday. Now sitting here thinking perhpas I should. Tis a staffroom tradition after all. Bleugh. Not awake enough to cook yet but I suppose I should. At lest the DDs will be happy with buns in their lunch box. Hokay descision made.I have 50 minutes to knock out 3 batches of fairy cakes to feed the gannets in the staffroom. No doubt I'll be very late again today.

On account of the birthday person providing the breaktime nibbles. Today is my turn but its been somewhat manic since the weekend and last night I really couldn't be arsed. Still managed to do four dozen before work this morning so the teachers are happy peeps.

OH took me shopping to choose my own brithday prezzie so I now haev a very swanky Le Cruset kettle which I can use on top of the stoves throughout the winter. The boys slowly coming round to the MSE way of thinking. DD1 presented me with an IOU and DD2 has a bag of mini toblerone hidden somewhere. It was briefly waved under my nose and then rapidly disappeared. Got a bunch of flowers from the ladies of the office and an IOU from my dad.

Managed to get DD1s birthday pressies whilst out too.

Happy Birthday Moo! :beer:

Hope you have a nice evening!

It is one of my best friend's birthdays as well today - clearly a day for excellent people!

I love Le Creuset although I think I must have weak wrists or something as would struggle to lift the bigger stuff empty, let alone full of stew or whatever!
