    Hello all. We'll come back to the lyrics in a mo...

    Reporting back on first day at nouveau job. Very good, I am pleased to say. Nice boss and colleagues, very busy, training booked and I get the chance to whizz about in a taxi! Stop laughing at the back! I went all giddy when they told me that bit!

    The cautionary bit.

    Buoyed up from work (after about three hours sleep last night) I hit the gym. Abs class! 40 mins cardio! 45 squats holding huuuuuge weights! 90 lunges! Oh yes! Cooking on gas!

    Minnie arrives home and attempts to climb the 10 flights up to Minnie Mansions. Holy cow! The legs rebel! Won't work! :eek:

    My thighs have officially turned to jelly. I took the lift, but still had to scale the final two flights. Got into Mansions after 17 hours and the use of mountain rescue.

    That's me OFF my high heels for the foreseeable, then!

    As it's been put up in his own thread, time to 'fess up.

    The new BF is, in fact, our very own ZTD.

    In case there's anyone out there who hasn't actually guessed yet...

    I must be the last oneto know!

    Congratulations to both of you. I had felt the vibes the other night in this thread but had not guessed as such.

    Lucky donkey ;)

    Too right it will!

    Should be sleeping but can't resist trying to catch up on everything. That said, I now obviously know the biggest news of the weekend so I can go to bed happy.... ;)
