    I didn't think the Maldives was big enough for many resort options!

    Blimey, that's a bit more than the few bungalows I had in mind! It'll probably be a difficult decision because it all looks like paradise! But then it'll be quite easy because everywhere you go will be gorgeous! Have to looked on Tripadvisor for the best ratings?

    My car is totally dead, Dad came round with jump leads (I tempted him with pizza... so Mum came along for the ride too! It's always a family trip out with my parents!) and the battery isn't charging. I'm calling my friend's Dad (who has an auto-electric business) in the morning to get a new one sorted, I just hope he can come round and fit it because I can't get to him!

    That is annoying abot the battery Birdie.

    I never knew there that many resorts either! Hope you manage to find one you like best, I am sure they all look amazing.

    Had a normal day at work today. We are getting a new grad start with my team in a couple of weeks , and found out today we might be getting another. Is all good for me as can train them up to do the jobs that take me ages. I have got my appraisal at work tomorrow but Nat who had hers today and is my sort of manager said they only have good things to say... hopefully true!

    Hi! Another nice cold morning!

    Good luck with the appraisal Wendz! Hope they do say nothing but nice things about you!

    OH has just text me asking where the money my Mum and Dad gave us for Christmas is and will not accept that he put it somewhere that he has now forgotten! How annoying! He always tidies things away and claims that it was me who 'lost' it. It can't be me because I don't tidy!

    Oh, now he's found it but it's still my 'fault' because I should have found it last night when he asked me about it, the fact that I was in bed with a massive headache isn't important!

    Lol he's just as capable of finding something as you! Drives me mad this selective male blindness they seem to have when it comes to finding things!

    Morning!

    Feeling loads better today, back to work on Monday for me unless we get snowed in! Had another 2" snowfall over night. Still haven't been out in it! :(

    Your OH sounds like a bit of a pain Birdie, but I'm like that with OH. Tidy things away and then blame him for loosing it :o

    Oooh, and I might be selling my Pashley. Poor Darcy is a very handsome bike but I just don't use him enough, and I need a bike with more gears for getting to work.

    Sounds like a good idea if you dont think you'll use it more when summer comes round.

    Been boosting my clubcard points this morning. £45 mobile phone handsets on tesco, £40 of points with them, then I'm going to resell the phone on ebay for £40, so about £34 after fees and postage. All goes towards the new york/univeristy fund.
