    Had the world's best EVER seminar. Lots of whoring by the lecturer - he called himself one, he started it, sniggering about 'enter frederick' (it was funny to me) and lots of other madness.

    Hmm...things to say to Shrek....
    "Did you remember to give them the number for the clap clinic as they'll need it"
    "Is she blind, stupid or both?"
    "Are you sure she can find it, last time it was hiding behind your one and only pube", "She's only happy as she's drunk,"
    "You may be happy now, but one day she'll wipe the poo from her eyes and think 'oh god, i'm married to a yanker'"
    "Come near me again and I'm sure you'll find out how strong a Tazer is"
    "I'm sorry, this isn't Bunny, it's her girlfriend, she's popped out to get some more vibe wipes"

    Am sure I could think of more if needed

    ** Fat Bum Shrinking: -7/56lbs **
    **SPC 2012 #1498 -£152 and 1499 ***
    I do it all because I'm scared.

    He will have to ask company interviewing him first whether they will pay..then he should be able to claim them back (I think) haven't got the money so hope he can...just when I seem to get on top and have a small amount in my savings he seems to wipe it out, interviews, bike, insurance, you name it basically.

    Evening-just off to do my first Vie at Home party in over a year-please WISH ME LUCK! Need the money and the party bookings desperately.

    Still need to get washing off the line, get make up and get all my kit in the car and kids sorted...

    I have to leave the house before 7am tomorrow to go to my CD training which means getting the kids up and dressed and in the car by 6.55 to drop off at child minders. When I get home, will have to make lunch for DS as he doesnt like the school lunch tomorrow (roast dinner!)

    So...in other words...



    WHoooooooooooooosh
