Hi All,

I also washed the bedding in the spare room.......I wanted to put it in the dryer so I would only need to make it when I got home - but I forgot. Its still sitting in the machine.... wet :mad:
I did not do very well with my flying last night. My friend had a really bad day at work, and she was popping in to borrow a lasange dish. We ended up chatting for a while about her day so her and her little boy stayed for tea and a few glasses of wine. :rolleyes:
So as I result I still have lots to do...... and I am sooooooooo tired.
So now I have a dilemma.........
I work about 20 miles from where I live and the airport is another 15 miles from my work.
Do I stay at work until about 7.30pm and then go straight to the airport from here to collect my sister (which I dont really want to do.....stay at work that is!) OR do i go home, then drive the 35 miles, back to the airport to collect her at 8pm?????
xxxxxSometimes lurking, sometimes posting, but always flying

Would you get paid overtime or be able to get time off in lieu? I would be tempted to stay to save the cost of the extra petrol :money:I am the leading lady in the movie of my life
