    Jeez Mercy, just saw the car comment, bet you got a helluva fright. That's happened to me once, years ago and I still remember how scary it felt.

    Morning all. Thought I'd stick my head round the door to say Hi.

    Happy late birthday Mazzers. :)

    Haven't read back pages cos you lot gab too much and I'd be here all day. :rolleyes::p:D

    Sweet, nice to see you stll here, have you been very good?

    It wont surprise anyone to know I haven't. :rotfl: January has been earmarked as our....(note the plural there ;)) 'get a grip' month. We need to reign in our eating (again) and our spending so there will be 3 of us in this house who will be changing things together.

    So if I re-appear then...will you all still talk to me? :D

    Well well, was only thinking of you yesterday icon7.gif

    Lets get back to it then, lovely to hear from you, i'v missed you :rolleyes:

    After my good exfoliating shower did a total body moisturise, rubbed a little coconut oil into my hair length, a pedicure and defoliation of essential areas :rotfl: Not necessarily in that order :cool: Then, settled and sorted, wrapped in a cosy garment I had a glass of wine with a good book n a fag. :D Felt great :j

    Should do that more often - wouldn't actually pay for it :) If I was paying I'd have a sauna / wet room thing followed by a good scrub and massage.

    Hi all

    Long day at work again, yawn :rotfl:

    B - boiled egg, lumps of pork, cheese
    D - ace chicken, celery and green bean korma over cauli
    D - Brie, ham, chorizo with salad and a little cranberry sauce

    Only bad thing - 1 can of strongbow. Tried to resist for far too little time :)

    Bad last 2 hrs at work - something went badly wrong and it fell on me to deal with it - no back up on lates:rotfl: Have done what I can - confidently - but it'l all kick off tomorrow :eek: Luckily, the fault is not mine. The putting it right will be though :rotfl: Things are so pushed to fill a massive order that to lose time aint good. However, I didn't do it this time. I will be especially nice to the person responsible in the hope they'll forgive me too when it's my turn to fechk up :rotfl:

    All in all, since I'm in manufacturing, it's good to be so busy. We seem to be bucking a trend. Many folk are losing the overtime they're used to - I'm getting more than I'm totally happy with :rolleyes: But I'm totally happy with that IYSWIM

    Off to fb then bed.

    Big love to all!

    Morning - got to go to the dentist for 9.00a.m so had a big breakfast (root canal treatment visit 1), 2 rashers of bacon and 2 eggs.

    Lunch may well be later and become an early evening meal. Yesterday was a 'succumb-to-the -marshmallows' evening. :o Bought some things to make Christmas gifts (snowman soup) and didn't hide them from myself enough. Hey, ho... onward now.

    Raining, raining and more raining.

    Hope everyone is doing well and happy.
