Morning!

Happy Birthday Toto!

Well done on the run Squizz, and snow in Venice sounds fab, hope you have a great time.

Good luck Bookie, I'm sure you'll be great.

It's cold here, I've had to put the heating on already, don't know what I'll do later when it runs out.

I'm off to deliver service sheets for printing, get petrol and have my hair cut.
See you later.

Well get uploading then - I'm very curious now!

£1,000 bonus gwon!Where do you work and do they need staff?

I work for an Oil Services company in Aberdeen. I work in the IT team.

I've only had a staff contract (contractor before) since September too - and still get £1000. One of the guys I work with got a bonus of £1700 (same level as me, but he's been working here a few years).

Wage got pushed up to over the £28k mark

My aim has always been to outshine my parents...and at 24 I'm on my way

Can't believe how helpful the money will be, I'll be able to pump it into debt relief

freeeeezzing here! Have also been up early and cleaned the oven out :A, put rubbish out and done a quick tidy around. At work until 1pm then I need to go to tesco as we have No food to eat. Bonus is B will have had Christmas lunch at school today so can give her something easy like sandwiches for Dinner and I can rade the freezer again for some random meal!

soooo tired and feeling a bit Meh today

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEAREST Toto :bdaycake:

:grouphug: Sorry you're not feeling great Sal. I had 'freezer surprise' for dinner last night too, turned out to be butternut squash soup - yummy!

In there at the moment I have 3 tubs that look like lentil curry, 2 butternut squash risottos, 1 soup, possibly thai marrow and 2 tubs of something I really can't identify!

I really need to make a batch of pasta sauce today because I have loads of tomatoes and celery to use up. Might go and bung that in the slow cooker now.

I am at a party tonight, not wildly enthusiastic because it involves a long drive there and back, so no alcohol, and I don't enjoy parties that involve meals because I always feel tired and sluggish after a meal. Still cold-y so I think I will just go for a couple of hours and then make polite excuses.

Going out with Mr Sunday one night next week if we can fit it in. Hopefully I will be germ-free by then!

Freezer surprise meals are great aren't they...well until its savoury and you expect sweet or vice versa. Party tonight does sound like a pfaff, but you never know you might just enjoy yourself!

Yes, hope so - it's my team's Christmas party, and they are lovely people, that's the only reason I'm going. Well, and also because it's an excuse to wear my black dress that I bought months ago and haven't worn yet and my favourite heels (and possibly buy a new bag... :shhh:).

I rarely make desserts of any kind so the only sweet thing in my freezer is ice cream, and I would have to be in a particularly dizzy mood to defrost that for dinner! :rotfl:

Ahhh I really want to watch Love actually or the Holiday (love those christmasssy cheesy films)

Has anyone seen the film Nativity ?
