    Hi Sashy! :hello: I lurk on your's too!

    Well today was a good day. Got loads done, I even got headhunted!

    It won't happen as the job is not in this country, but it was a nice boost and good ammunition for my impending pay review :cool:

    The non-paying Ebayer coughed up, so £21.06 requested from Paypal.

    Didn't manage an NSD, but spends were light.

    Right off to pick up DD1 from her French lesson. Little DD is with my Mum, so I have a whole 15 minutes to MYSELF!!!! :j The excitement! :D

    Hope you've had a good day :)

    Ooh, a whole 15 mins! Did you do anything exciting?

    Isn't it amazing how just 15 minutes alone is so exciting when you have kids!!

    About time the non paying bidder paid up as well, really irritating when you have to chase them though!

    Hi Chops and IMD!

    I've just applied online for a replacement Passport (or password as little DD calls it!) - £77.50! :eek::eek::eek: EXTORTION!

    Good that I could do it online though - how did we survive before t'internet?!

    Feeling really carp, sore throat, constant sneezing and headache - so off to bed (running tomorrow night :o).

    Night all x

    Thanks Hypno, I set off to work this morning, but had to turn back as I feel dreadful.
    I was up half the night and ended up coming downstairs for a lemsip. I feel like I've been whacked round the head with a comedy frying pan. Not good.

    I've got so much to do at work and a very important meeting to attend tomorrow, so I need to be right for then.

    Hope you're well x
