Snorkers, False Teeth. Dipping Hares? Glove Boxes and el! No propppppper job now. Got to say Casnewydd is not recession proof!!!

5 New Job. Cannot believe that I got someone else to check to see if Jenny :heartpuls :heartpuls :heartpuls :heartpuls :heartpuls :heartpuls was ticking. Will have to stop this game now, it is only a game. No, bet I cannot keep it up. Still, there be only one lass who goes squeamish at the fort of ever seeing the works!

4 Got me new chair at work. And, for & sake new putah. Posh putah at that. I apparently have exceeded the union imposed speed limit for typing already. Still it be kick rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr week.

3 Office is big, with name on the dingo fence! Looks good anyway. Canteen ladies can really frumble up a decent roll at lunch time as well

and it means I can be home 2 gether with Ms BoP at nites. It keeps here pulled!

1 A Pledge

I will put my hand up and ask if I do not know the answer, someone will be able to help us see it clearer. It is better for me to get an answer truthfully and not want I want, than to live is a delusion that I want to hear people say.

I have one mouth, but two ears. I will use them in that order. I will listen to what you say, and give you a kind word. As long as you need me, I will be there.

I see you broken, and lost. I will hold your hand and lift you back. But you're on the sand and the way back is but only barefoot in the sand. How did you get here, for it was me who carried you, now walk along home.

I fear not the past, I cannot change that. I live today, but for tomorrow. Just take what you need today, so the harvest tomorrow is more fruitful.

Everything searched without success or inspiration of what/where further....which obviously occludes the Relevant Where.

3. Phoned re@unacknowledged em to reallyusefulgroup a week ago[cancelled JC Superstar performance last March.] Have been doggedly driving at this ever since, getting nowhere. At last, apology reply call, em had not reached her:
'Dear &
I confirm receipt of your email today. I have spoken to Hannah Wills at Really Useful Group and forwarded your email onto her to deal with and she should be in contact with you shortly. Her email address is hannah.wills@reallyuseful.com should you need to follow this up.
With best wishes

Crikey, 3 points on your licence in the 1st week. What happens if you're disqualified? Lady Slack+Thwack+Smack+Flak?
5. Ireland lost, but a good listen. Was absently in Malahide, down on beach.
Now it's US Open, having given self break from The Quest, with a couple of chapters of Joan Bakewell's 'The Centre of the Bed, lengthwise outside on rocking bench. Trying not to read it all at once. She is a heroine. X played footsies with her at certain stages of their lives/that London milieu.
6. ditto re:PK worry and welcome return. Added something last night, then deleted it. Felt my current poor portents might carry through. It's remarkably good that you DID get on your way the next day. Now to choose replacement and that can be Pleasure.
7. AUCTION CHQ CAME:-) and more than expected:-)

piecemeal

I expect when you find your keys they'll be snuggled up next to my recipe notebook because I can't find the blasted thing ANYWHERE!

piecemeal

1. cooking home grown beetroot.
2. took neighbour to get something for her fishtank with unexpected bonus of looking at all the fish stocked in the larger-than-I-thought shop.
3. DH finding me a milk jug and sugar bowl in my favourite pattern (shhh don't tell him I already have two of the bowls and one jug!;))
4. receiving a new clothes catalogue and realising I really can't be bothered to look at it.
5. labelling yesterday's chutney with pretty labels.

/[I will listen to what you say, and give you a kind word. As long as you need me, I will be there.
I see you broken, and lost. I will hold your hand and lift you back ]

2. postman also brought DS the new star trek DVD cant wait to watch it.... am a fan of the cucumber patchs' acting but don't get the attraction !

3. went to harvester for tea, not really OS but at least I didn't have to cook :j

4. 30 min brisk walk (turned into a hobble at the end)

5. walked along the foreshore in the evening sun. One side of the main road was basking in the evening sun, the other side of the road along the common by the sea and was thick with fog.. very eerie and quiet ... apart from fog horns
