    Morning Bob,
    I did have a plan yesterday, got all organised.....and then...
    downloaded some OS maps and went to meet Mrs P at work...which is the other side of the Otmoor ( North of Oxford ) and was a lovely 8 mile walk roughly along the route of the Roman Road.
    Its on my doorstep yet its the first time I've ever walked it!...plan did fall apart at Beckley as the pub didnt open until 12 and I reached it at 11! Doh!
    Took 2 1/2 hours which wasn't bad taking into account stiles, ditches, walking around very marshy bits and avoiding fields with cows and calves.
    Have a good day today, I will be productive....but may just need to have a little looky at the OS maps.....:D
    :D:D stay wonky :D:D

    ....one-way ticket to Portugal booked !
  • Hey up SQUIZZ.

    Hi Pepe- the walk sounded good *sigh* i will have to get out walking myself this weekend.

  • Been a busy bee today with Pupils paperwork mountain and whatnot. Feel that i have cleared the worst of it now..a bit like a pile of ironing really. You know you can see the light at the end of the tunnel, but that there will be more.

    DD2 had to have another £75 today on top of monies spent out and dinners...then i find out she was skint because a fun fair was near the college-so she is permanently skint now as she ain't getting a bean off me. Dinners have to be made at home and tough bananas..they really take the *P* don't they?

    Good news is that we have paid off £900 so far this month ( actual figures) would have been more if not for DD having mits out for dosh.
    Orf to update totals which are different.

    Thank goodness it is Friday eh?

    Well done honey - light at the end of mount paperwork and debt busting. How are you feeling lately ? Better I hope. XX

  • I am feeling well thanks Ellidee. Have energy despite the best efforts of pupils and evil bosses with paperwork, DD with designs and my dosh and Mr.B-less said there! DS is in my good books though and is currently peeling potatoes etc for tea.
