    Hi Fay - I've done Meyers Briggs, was feeling very decisive when I did the questionnaire and it totally blew me away when it gave me the letters as I am exactly like it says....I found it really good fun but can't see how it's going to change my life and it got me away from my desk for a morning, lol....

    Unix - poor godson, hugs all round.

    DD sitting on the sofa eating a sticky 'angry bun', she doesn't like them toasted with butter, strange girl. Want her to hurry up so we can do some colouring of paper eggs/bunnies to make a mobile but CBeebies is winning :(

    Thanks Fay, hadn't realised you were supposed to be back at work today. Will they mind? We have to work both today and monday.

    Um - well my supervisor is off today and monday - and although the dept is open - not sure who's in.

    One of the positive sides of being a 'stoooodent' is the capacity to pretend sometimes you can set your own hours. Low pay - extraordinary deadlines etc there has to be something in return

    I also checked in via email at 8.15am and replied to all my supervisors so I am technically at my edinburgh desk.......kinda :)

    As I drove rather than flew down - its expected that I will spend today travelling - so in fairness I should be in on Monday but will see how my time goes!

    Hiya uni, thank goodness your godson is okay. Sounds a sensible lad with money. Hmmm, wish I'd been...


    Same here Piq, I think because he's had it drummed into him by his parents and me (I'm a good bit younger than his parents so when he doesn't listen to them they send him to talk to me!).

    KK what are you?

    I am (supposedly) ESFJ - veered between I and E I have to say.

    Surely you are about to have an electricity strike at yours and CBB's will be temporarily oout of order. I have been known to actually turn it off at the meter before now and enforce powercuts :)

    Edit just seen the time runs to get dressed - :)

    enforced power cuts....... I'll need to remember that one at dinner time when I can't tear the kids away from the tv!

    On the Myers Briggs? Not a clue... my brother in law is qualified to give the test, and he did it for me once when he was practising, but I can't remember :o the work I do is much more feeling based in the main, so not often relevant. I'd be interested to know tho - I definitely have two sides to me, its quite schizophrenic here sometimes!

    Today, I'm just tired still - mootling about on the computer, I *might* do some digging this afternoon, but that rain has just started. Damn, and the recycling wasn't collected yesterday as it should have been, so the cardboard is out there collecting rainwater. Okay, that might be my job for the day - put the cardboard recycling in the garage!

    Spending the afternoon clearing my desk out. I can't believe I have accumulated so much junk!

    We made the mobile, it's gorgeous :) I bought this v. funky wire frame with tiny crocodile clips thing in Amsterdam, I printed off bunny and egg outlines and so the kitchen was a bombsite with the contents of the art cupboard. Oh, okay, it still is a bombsite, suppose I ought to tidy up before we go to stay overnight at a friend's house......*sigh8

    A few times I have switched the TV off at the socket before leaving for work so that when we came home it "didn't work" *evil cackle*

    From what I recall I was ISFP, all nice touchy-feely...
