The brussel sprouts have been having carnal relations in the firdge cos I only bought a pound, had them for New Years lunch and still had six pounds left to peel for the swamp broth!

Today's life lesson, if you seal a flask, press the button and then shake it up and down it all spurts out! So KJ - Don't press the f**king button next time.

Using the power of positive thinking however, it was a test flask full of hot water (to see of it stays hot cos flask hasn't been used in loooooonnnnng time) and now I've big clean patch on the kitchen floor. Whoo woo - multitasking or what!

By the time I fill the hot water bottles that'll be another clean patch.

Enjoy London, I go lots for work, but last Summer we took the kids to do the sights and it was great! Now they want to live there :rolleyes:

Cheers. I did the Jack the Ripper walk last time I was working down there and that was fun. Might take him on something like that. We're going to work out a bit of an itinery so any ideas gratefully rec'd.

Well my kids are only young, so we did the Natural History Museum and The London Eye...But the Science Museum is next to the Nat. History and might interest SB

kissjenn

The museums are fab. I'd like a good look round the British and went to a completely mental place called Sir John Soane's house. He collected everything and you have to squeeze past Roman busts and Grecian vases. He has the outer sarcophogus of Seti II in the basement! Loved it.

Think I'll take him on the Duck tour too and the Eye and Downing St and and and. And then some shows at night, he's really good and lets me drag him along - he loved Mamma Mia! His friends are more horrified that he actually admitted it than anything else. He draws the line at High School Muscial tho.

Maybe The Globe too. We went on a work trip last year and one colleague was adamant that she would hate it, as she didn't understand Shakespeare. It was brilliant though and she loved it.

Hi KJ hope this week goes well for you - you sound like you have some interesting project work booked. Nice to have a holiday to look forward to as well

I would strongly recommend Wicked as a musical to go and see I loved it!

Thank you all ladies. Shows sound good and I think I've flat book for 6 nights. I can get us first class returns for just over £100 each and that's pretty much door to door. An MSE-esque treat.

Project is interesting and people (in the main) are nice. One tried to have me and another contractor fired - she doesn't know we know - and now wonders why we don't really feel like "chatting". What goes around come around...we just have to wait.
