    Morning everyone :D

    Just came downstairs to let Izzy out and found a parcel lurking in the kitchen ... a Young Jame's Bond novel, Izzy must have stolen it from the porch yesterday :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: off to IWIWIW to post ....

    another day at work :rolleyes: have really had enough at the moment. The only bonus of sitting in the office all day is the air con :rotfl::rotfl: sick of the job but can't afford to change jobs whilst OH only part time :confused: i wanna be a lady of leisure :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: domestic goddess and comping queen ... 2 jobs in one, that would do me :p

    good luck everyone for today xxx

    lol that's my 'job' at the moment and I'm bored of it!!

    I like the idea of finding a surprise win - as long as they don't get destroyed whilst being hidden by Izzy!

    Not this time ... she hasn't even ripped the envelope ... sometimes she just likes moving things around :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    when I won the gladiator pjs the other week though, she's opened the parcel for me :eek: :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
