    On Tuesday squirrel :D

    Just filling in an application form for an apartment, been to see 3 over the last few days and have spent months looking on rightmove! Decided to play it safe, found a lovely terrace but 6 people of interested and it would take more heating. I went into the apartment today and it was quite warm compared with being -1 outside and there hasn't been heating on in there since Dec!! So i think the bills will be cheap! And its economy 7 and it has all the white goods you could ever dream of. Does remind me of a new travelodge though! It has underground secure parking too! The only downside is not enough room for a big dining table and no garden, but the contract is only for 6 months so can always move out then if i dont like it?! Im a little excited!!!

    Sounds good Katie! :D

    My work is such a joke - we've been told we have to attend some courses (which aren't really relevant to what we do in our dept - just the organisation ticking boxes to say everyone's done this training) which involve quite a bit of travelling about for us all and of course time away from the office. Another dept - who come under the same overall manager - made a fuss and have been told they don't have to attend as they can do the courses online when it suits them.. so why are we wasting time and money messing about going to them? Grrr!

    Have you got the banana loaf on the middle tray? Also if the top is starting to burn, put sme tin foil over the top of the loaf tin, bung it back in the oven and fingers crossed the middle should harden up.
