  • Hi all:hello:

    Well done Sea, you are doing brilliantly. Hope you feel really good.

    40SM and the other accountants - please tell me you like being accountants :cool: I'm steering DD1 in that direction for uni (she wants a job that pays well), but I don't want her doing something she hates later in life .... I thought you said it was quite enjoyable when you get into a set of accounts, 40SM???

    Have a good evening everybody. I'm amazed that Fay is another Jo :confused: Can't tell you my secrets, I don't know where I'd start :eek:

    Not a new job. I only work Mon-Wed :j Changed my hours from full-time after maternity leave with my 2nd son. I promised them it would only be for a short while but there's no way I could go back f/t now. So I hope they never ask :D

    I'm in NE Scotland. When the east wind blows the haar rolls in. I've lived here all my life but still find it depressing!

    Still trying to think of another secret. Loving the toothbrush one :rotfl:There MUST be something I've done and not been found out.

    Whar aboots ye fae Hen?

    I am from the bonnie ?! land o' Dundee

    Hi Ann, Once it's working you can type them in directly eg
    colonwavecolon = :wave:
    as a shortcut.

    Well done Sea for not drinking for over 3 weeks. You're doing really welll. :T:T

    And hello and well done to Moneymouth.

    Tonight's going ok so far. Tired but over the wine bells at the moment.

    I have a 'real' target in my head of two more than last month but that will only give me 1 more drinking day this month and then I'll be doing the same scramble up to the last minute as usual. My posted target is 14 and my in my head target is 16 because that's two more than last month and over half the month for the first time. Not sure I can achieve that one though. I definitely have strong and weak days at the mo.
