Done all work sent home from work for me!!
Spoken to ex on phone twice and he was nice to me!
Not normally being at home during the day, I don't use the phone, but today I have just noticed how yuk it was with stick marks on it, and stuff stuck between the buttons etc.
So I have just spend 10 mins cleaning it with cotton buds and polish and it now looks wonderful.Breast Cancer Now 100 miles October 2022 100 / 100miles

Just received my payslip and checked my online banking - I've only been paid £22.40 in mileage and that's it! No wages or accrued annual leave!! Yikes! Frantic phonecalls to the office/helpdesk/office again. Office say they've put my hours forward, helpdesk say they haven't and to put a request in for an emergency payment. Office say they will investigate and phone me this afternoon.
Panic. I am physically shaking! Fortunately my DLA was paid a couple of days ago and I didn't know it would be so the bills I was going to pay with my wages are paid, but it was a bit of a shock opening my payslip!
Still not done any flying. Am going to get dressed and go the library. See you all later.
Advance warning: I'm going to do an HHK at 2:15 with !!!!!! if anyone wants to join me."Snowflakes are one of nature's most fragile things, but just look what they can do when they stick together."

Morning everybody
I am a little later today as I over slept so must get this post done and crack on - I have a million things I want to do today - will probably only achieve 1 or 2 but thats beside the point!
mudbath hope you are feeling better and I am please to see you are adopting better regimes for yourself. have you actually got your caravan at home now or do you have to find somewhere to put it first. Just noticed you new siggy - a new challenge!!!
LadyLiberty be warned - I will be there on my broomstick in a flash if you go near that duster -the most activity you are allowed is to eat, drink and go to the loo!!!!!! and come here and moan of course!!!:rotfl: take it easy honey you know its for the best!:Danother really dumb question.....but im going to ask it anyway!How do I defrag my laptop??
the method DeniseNZ (Start > all Programmes > accessories > system tools > disk defragmenter)suggested is what I use and find its so easy! It will make your pc run more efficiently (sp) the main drive to do is the C: drive. x
deniseNZ lovely dream you have there!
mozzy keep an eye on your EA and dont let them railroad you into anything you are not happy about - its your house and you are paying for them to do the sale the way you want it!
