I met an idiot this morning..if he thinks that I will do the ISO9000 with him then he has another thing coming..he was a thoroughly nasty whiny devil - he moaned that his breakfast didnt arrive and during the 1:1 pointed out that my business name sounded like a mental illness - so me being me turned around and said "oh really, I was suffering from a mental illness when I set up my business and anyway it was obvious to me that he was so uneducated that he never did Latin at school":rolleyes: He moaned too about his daughter being 32 and getting married and he didnt see the point of her having a nice dress so he was going to give her £2000 to pay for it and asked me if I would do it so I said no as I don't organise low end market weddings:rotfl:.One thing though I do have his business card..he liked to brag about his cards because they have his photo on them...cool..it will give me something to aim for when I am hammering nails into bits of wood:rotfl:

:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: I think I need to take lessons from you Horace.....


:think::think:......I did Latin at school...servus servum servo servi servo servi servo servis servorum servis.....:eek::eek:..........:o

Glad you had a good day at the races and its a pity the money was spent on vets bills:rolleyes: All your talk about piggy poo has put me right off my cheapo Aldi jammy dodger:rolleyes:

Sorry Horace - at least it wasn't choclate chip :rotfl:

Got up relatively early this morning and it was foggy and gloomy so left the car at home and walked 2 miles to the doctors to see the gorgeous male doctor who confirmed my suspicions that his dad was who I thought his dad was and how I used to work with him when I worked at the university. He took my blood pressure which was normal and I was rather pleased as it was a good walk I had this morning and all uphill:D Came home and then had to get the car out to go into the village (a bit too far to walk) to go to the chemist, (parked on tesco for free), nipped to bank, the butchers (my freezer is stocked up and I got some new meat - some flat rib which is yummy when slowly roasted according to the butcher so I hope he's right), went to the co-op and bought a few bits in there, went to the primrose hospice shop and bought a paperback book and a packet of gorgeous christmas cards - I thought that they were triangular but on getting them home discovered that they form a pyramid of robins:cool: I was really miffed in Tesco as I went to the whoopsie shelf and got some bits, then I stopped off for some organic rye bread (I can eat it til the cows come home) and then went to the check out. Got served by this wierd looking kid who looked as though he had two black staples in his bottom lip..so I asked him if he had been in an accident..oh the embarassment when I discovered that they were a facial adornment (disfigurement if you ask me because they weren't attractive) - I ended up having a row at the check out too as it seems that the items on the whoopsie shelf hadnt been reduced so I pointed out that they shouldnt have been placed on the shelf which clearly states that everything on it is reduced and that they should have remained on their normal shelves..I was like rumpelstiltskin, the annoying thing was that I needed the stuff so got it anyway at full price but I have told them that I will be making a complaint to Tesco. I am glad that I went to the butcher though as the meat there is much nicer and cheaper than the stuff they sell in Tesco..I had a look at the meat on the whoopsie shelf and it was looking decidedly not nice and was dearer than the butcher:rolleyes:

Off now to write to Tesco.

Wol..stuff the housework, run yourself a hot bath, sling something nice in it (e.g original source lavender foam bath) and go and have a wallow and an early night:D

Horace - your energy and enthusiasm astound me....and I love reading about what you get up to......:rotfl::rotfl:....wish I'd been a fly on the wall in Tescos :rotfl::rotfl:

You bring a smile to my face every day - (and an increased risk of this latest PC getting covered in coffee :rotfl::rotfl:)

Thank you :beer::kisses3:

How's it going wiht the band?

Hi Shaun

We saw loads and loads of your Scottish and Cumbrian cousins this weekend...... .....mostly white, some with black faces like yourself although this was the first time I have seen chocolate coloured cousins

Hope the house is now dry and leak proof (Good thing it happened now and not over the Xmas hols...I remember one boxing day our lounge ceiling suddenrly fell down on my cousin because rain had been driven underneath the flashing by the wind)......my parents were rather concerned but I thought it was karma for when my cousin many years before as a little child flooded the previous house by turining on the wash basin upstairs and putting in the plug :rotfl::rotfl:

What he says Horace :rotfl::rotfl:

I know the problem though...been up til 3am the last two nights with Beechie..I don;t mind the late nights as long as I can have late mornings.......as you said earlier .......padding around in a dressing gown til noon and sitting in a hot bath for an hour reading a book..Original sources lavender is my favourite too -

....I used to hate lavender..now I love it...do you think liking lavender is a sign of us getting more mature in years
