    We're off to Global Gathering at Stratford so its quite a few differend DJs etc playing. Main headliners this yr are Prodigy and Penjulum which should be good! Im sure plenty of alcohol and the rain wont matter anymore! :j
    Sounds good! Me and kids went to see Pendulum a bit back at Newcastle Academy - great gig

    MAZ - sorry about dryer especially in this weather (chucking it down here too) - someone (sorry can't remember who :o) mentioned a really cheap airer from Tesco - it was in daily chat tho.

    Buffy - Sod's Law strikes again - a real pain when you've set your mind to something else. Are they taking you out for lunch or something nice?

    Gemmzie - hope the clinic goes well

    Hope everyone's lists, lunches and essays are going well. I've put washing on and done the invoices which takes care of half my list already :T (I am ignoring anything that's not on my list but should be)

  • Beanie you may have a point there. I can make the phone calls and then go out.

    its just very annoying. You'd think they could walk on bloody water.

    thanks Sal and Beanie. I will get on shift on and get out of here.

    a fee i can cope with TBH.... i just didn't think they were at all flexible... i suppose it depends on the return date availability......

    just looked online to change flights the total in extra cost would be £140, which is still a saving on the extra nights B&B and makes for a more manageable weekend in terms of getting cat care... am thining my 19 year old niece might come and house sit for me?

    i don't have the funds to pay for it now, so will wait and see if i can still get those flights/prices when i get paid next week....
