    Aye mum works up at Trimdon just South of Durham and is having a right nightmare getting home. I'm wondering if the whiteout is moving north or south from there...

    Well I think it was at Shotton before it reached Durham, but colleagues are heading home now who live in Stokesley - apparently it's really bad there too. Still nothing here, no doubt it'll come down at 5 and we'll be at a standstill, cold and hungry :(

    I have my non-flexi friend on a Tuesday though, can't just scarper 45 mins before she finishes and leave her stranded. I might have if we'd been sent home at 3 though :D

  • List for today:
    - [STRIKE]Food Focus[/STRIKE]
    - [STRIKE]Bingo Britain (may as well play my bonus and see what happens!)[/STRIKE]
    - [STRIKE]Beauty Judge review[/STRIKE]
    - 2 Dooyoos
    - [STRIKE]Copy 1 to Ciao[/STRIKE]

    - Sewing folder

    Not too bad all in all - still done nothing of my sewing but will do that tonight either at class or at home if it's cancelled or I get sent home, will see. I'm giving up BingoBritain as detailed on Dinah's thread, basically the rules aren't clear and with the fact that you have to deposit hard cash in order to withdraw anything, it's a bit of a risk.

    Up to a massive 75p on Ciao now, definitely worth the small effort of copying reviews over, especially if I manage to get something from the bonus fund which I don't understand!

    Wednesday:
    - Get work inbox down to something less daunting!
    - Post card
    - Buy silver thread
    - Copy 1 review to Ciao
    - Copy 1 review to Ciao with pics
    - Copy BJ review to Dooyoo

    - Sewing
    - Check CD cases - replace broken ones for Music Magpie
    - Make Birthday card

    Barceloneta - think thats how you spell it!! Anyway turns out to be quite a nice surprise because i thought the parents said it was outside Barcelona, but from what i can find on the net it seems theres a lot going on there.

    Have you ever been?
