    morning all, got a bit of an hangover and watching something for the weekend, just catching up on the thread, and I don't think with practice I would be able to do 200 sit ups and squats.

    Had a good night last night got in at 3ish, got up at 8.30 I was sure when I looked at the clock it was 9.30, god I'm tired now, might have a nap later, I'll be back later when I remember what I was going to say.

    Lol, You don't start with 200 sit ups :rotfl:that's where you end ;)(

    that still scares me - the concepts of 'me' and 'person who can do 200 sit-ups' have never found themselves in the same paragraph before!

    Had a boring day at work, but haven't been working in my normal dept for the last 2 weeks been helping another area, and I can't say I find it fun, but back to normal tomorrow, yippee, I miss the banter.

    so far this month I've managed to stick to my budget, and not bought anything I shouldn't, so far so good, I got offered a barge for £9000 at the weekend got told it was immaculate, but as I'm not ready yet have decided not to go look at it, seem's a bit cheap to me, and i'm loving the library just not some of the ignorant people who use it.

    Didn't have much of an hangover must remember not to drink cider with a straw, I'm sure that was the thing that made me feel a bit too wrecked, but had a laugh with my friends so was worth it.

    Is it not worth going to see just to get a feel of what you can get with your money and what sort of things you are looking out for? When I decided I wanted a flat, I went and saw tons of stuff even though and I had no savings and wasn't ready to buy. I just wanted an idea of what you could get and what I wanted and that kind of thing. Really helped and was good motivation too!!!

    On seperate note, Mr NYE has rung me - very random but really welcome on an otherwise very dull Monday afternoon!!
    I've got my own flat :j:j

    Now I have to pay the bills :eek:

    And feed my interiors addiction ;)

    Oh wow, drinking cider through a straw takes me back a few years, have lost many a night on that trick - cheap though :D

    Done my workout & now off to have an early night.

    Have never tried drinking cider through a straw, I'm rather partial to a cheeky cider though! Must try it the next time I'm out!! (or maybe not.....)

    I didn't really want to look at that boat cos it was my friends BF's and he has some bad habits, there isn't enough bleach and disinfectant in this world to clean that boat, since I posted that I could have that boat tho she's split up with him, and she doesn't seem that down about it which isn't a surprise.

    Having the week from hell at work, there updating the system, and the new one doesn't seem to want to work properly which is a pain when it goes live on Monday, but hopefully I've booked some days off next week so I won't have to put up with it for long, but I can see those day's been postponed again, so not getting my hopes up and making plans till I get home Monday.

    Not going out this weekend, and not got much planned yet, except wash the car, folk think I lead an exciting life that I don't talk about at work and there's times I think if only they knew my lifes sometimes as boring as there's.

    :eek::eek::eek: Ok totally understand now. Very wise decision. Wouldn't want the experience to put you off a boat for life!!

    Well a nice chilled weekend can be cool, good to relax as sounds like you've got a crazy week coming up.

    I had a crazy work meeting last night and was totally dreading it but it wasn't as bad as I expected and it is now out of the way until the next one at end of Feb! :j
    I've got my own flat :j:j
