    Hellooo....

    Where is everyone today? Oh well will just talk to myself, had a nice cheap lunch in the canteen, soup and a buttered roll then remembered had brought my lunch in with me today (wasn't supposed to go to canteen but a friend asked me - have kept turning her down in the past as we'd had a small falling out), but thought I'd be the bigger person and talk to her. Went ok, well better pop off now cos I'm feeling really daft talking to myself!

    Think it must be an April Fool, they are all lurking here just reading and not posting. I've not been caught yet, think it's only supposed to be til 12noon!

    I was at Body Balance last night, there is a new routine coming up and it is hard, you have to be able to do the 'crab' which I've not done since I was 10, nearly broke my neck last night trying to do it!

    An onion sandwich??? Eh? I mean I love onions but that sounds a tad excessive Princess! ;)
    I'm having egg & cress as it's the cheapest one they had in Boots and I left my Dairylea bagel at home (yes, I'm 9).

    Just watching the coverage of the scuffles over the G20 at Liverpool St from the safety of my office on Oxford St. No bus home for me tonight as it goes down Regent St so will have to be the stinky old tube. Boo!

    Was that today - well I will say it again April Fools Day!

    Did anyone get caught out with Martin's Money Saving Tips about saving income tax this year? I didn't, but only cos I a) read about someone else getting caught out and b) I was more interested in the loo roll for £3 at Asda! :j

    Arfternoon ladies....tucking into a hummus pitta at home yum yum - with carrot sticks :D

    Princess what on earth, onions??? Is there something else in there as well? Have a chewy you'll be fine :p Your poor mum - mine would see straight through that though she's a wise old bird.... At least staying at home means I miss most of hte usual ones that go round the office... last year we had an email from the office manager saying that there was a badger in the carpark and to avoid the area until after it had been safely caught by the RSPCA... fell on its face though as we all had windows overlooking the car park and couldn't see a badger... got us all talking though!! :rotfl:

    Ruby can't beleive you went to work at all today, isn't it pandemoneum? I've been looking on the news sites but not much being reported at the minute. I might take myself off out in a bit, going stircrazy in here:eek:
    End of 2010 I was £8,007.66 in debt :(
    Today's total: £7,297.06 :o

    Yeah - I wanna know what else is in an onion sarnie & how you make it!! I do actually like raw red onion in salad so I'd probably love it.

    I work just off Oxford St behind Selfridges so I'm out of the main zone of it although their protest is meant to move more central to Trafalgar Square later hence why they're shutting (among others) Regent St. My bus to Brixton goes right by there so I'll be getting the tube. Hope I'm not nose-to-armpit with crusty protesters. Bleurgh!!

    Ebony - it's a lovely day go and [STRIKE]do some shopping [/STRIKE] walk in the park smelling the flowers.

    :D
