    Lists and exercise all finished. Coppers counted ready for PAD tomorrow. If anyone remembers the fraudulent accounts with my pet insurance...i've just phoned them up to find out what they discovered. They phoned back and apologised that it was an internal typing error - very apologetic and offered me two months free insurance (£40). I thanked her for being honest and getting it sorted - she was so taken aback that I wasn't going mad that she gave me three months free!!! It's worth being polite sometimes!!

    Now for the jobs worth award...as you know i'm not working at the moment due to my op. I had a call today from the jobcentre for my back to work interview. I explained i'm self employed and already have clients booked in ready for starting back at work. I still have to go for an interview for them to find me work even though I have my own business....how daft is that?:confused:

    Right, i'm off to brush the dogs, check the bird feeders and make dinner!

    Hugs to all xx

    Afternoon all! I'm back from school - was home by 4, which was excellent as there was no marking to do. I just spent 1 hour doing guided reading, 10 minutes break duty and 1 hour of ICT. Great stuff. Since I've been home I've caught up on the thread, drunk a cup of redbush, cursed the postman for coming so late as 30 minutes earlier I would've been in to collect my parcel (he arrived at 1.00!!!), and faxed off my timesheet.

    Does anyone fancy a HHC 4.45-5.15?
    Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.
