    Morning all

    Luc - hope the interview goes well.

    Snaggs - That makes my underwear drawer look sad and pathetic. You've got far to much time on your hands.

    Got to wait in for the gas safety check this morning but do need to pop out to the pharmacy in a bit, DD2 is home ill again and DH can hardly talk or swallow...need to boost them both up a bit - or shoot them :D

    Going to make some spicy meatballs for tea, have a real yearning for some stodgy pasta and meatballs...might even make some garlic flatbread too...with extra cheese.

    Also need to update the budgets/bank accounts as I seem to have £197 spare and I shouldn't........spare money = nice......something missed and not paid = not so nice.

    So, what is this thread? a daily chat type thing where people look and update as they go along?
    I keep meaning to get into forums but my mind wanders and I seem to fall I to lurker realms more easily and this is the site I feel I keep wanting to become active in.
    So, ironically, I'm at work today but will be avoiding work on my iPod by looking trying to follow this thread, ;-)

    And how lucky - you may need some new stuff in the next 29 days...

    Luc - you are SOOOOOOOO right. I really do need some new underwear and what a wonderful excuse to buy it :T
    YOUR = belonging to you (your coat); YOU'RE = you are (I hope you're ok)

    really....it's not hard to understand :T

    Hello MrJuggles...

    Yes a daily chatty type thread where we can all spark ideas off each other and have a general gossip and moan about daily life as a DFW.

    We like jaffa cakes and creme eggs - so feel free to bribe your way in with those :D

    yep just random chat :D always handy to pass the time at work when having a slow day,

    just a warning some of the chat can get quite funny with all the loverly ladies on here so be careful when the boss is around as you dont want them wondering why you are smiling at work ;)
