I'm sure if PBT doesn't take it, Lurks will be there as quick as a flash :rotfl: I refuse to go out into my own garden, so I'm obviously not interested :cool:

RA, thank you, being an alcoholic is very tiring!

No it's not Jo. Being an alcoholic thinkingh constantly about drinking is tiring. Being an alchololic who doesn't drink is great! x

This is true PBT. I remember a couple of years ago when I had some counselling, I said to him that I was a very lazy person, no motivation etc due to drinking. He said that I was very wrong, from the very moment I opened my eyes in the morning my mind was working overtime thinking where to hide the empties from the night before, when will I be able to buy more alcohol, where will I hide it, how will I drink it without being busted etc etc...all this and holding down a full time job with 3 (4 if you include OH) children!!

I think I could do without that distraction now, I've got a lot to think about and need to make sure all this job thing works. I have a hell of a lot to live up to :eek:

I need new work clothes, I can't decide and what do you all think.....should I wear suits to work everyday? If I turn up during the first week wearing a suit then I'll always have to wear one. Or should I just get a few decent pairs of trousers (don't do skirts) and some nice shirts instead?

I would wait and see how most other senior administrators dress before spending too much jo and hopefully we will be getting a lovely, warm summer term so you won't really need jackets until September/October. I think shirts are a good idea (didn't you buy two for the interview?) and smart little cardis can look very businesslike too. Spend a minimum to begin with.

:hello:Hi BHB, and wasn't it great to see Budgie around.

Scrap the detox and veggie fest, OH has just got out of bed with the most horrific of hangovers and apparently he's going out again tonight :D:D

Just taken a reduced Mr T's Finest peppercorn beef with armagnac sauce out of the freezer.....from £6.00 to £2.10 it serves 2 but I'm sure I could fit it all in :drool: kids want fish fingers and chips and might buy cake for afties

I've got the remote again :D:D

If you can't quite manage it all I'm happy to come round & help...

Ah I'm sure I'll squeeze it in with some home made chips and a big dollop of mustard :drool:

Off out to Mr T's in a minute, thought I'd go early so I don't get distracted by the off licence.
