    Terrible - wearing a pretty dress and not shaving!

    The thing is though, my house is really small and I wouldn't know where to be/which room to be in when they were here!

    Judi, my parents always used to tell a story of when they went camping at spring break when I was a baby, it snowed really heavily and during the night the dog got out and dad had to chase him round the campsite in his pyjamas, at the same time they had to try and keep me warm.

    Wow, I can't believe the Business Inspector's on again, where has this week gone!

    I wish I had a body and dancing ability like them. Doubt the pole would hold my weight though!

    evening. Made it home from my trip away :)

    Unfortunately my boss wants me to do some work tonight (she left me a message during the training course) and I've left her an email and a voicemail saying I don't understand what she wants. I'm dreading what time I'll hear back from her :(

    I hope you're not setting a precedent here Katsu. There has to be an escape from nightmare bosses, and home is usually it!

    The accountants I work for sometimes have cleaners that come in and they do do ornaments...very expensive ornaments...

    Its like me saying I won't do someones accounts cos they are not in the right order......(or something like that). A good cleaner will have insurance for breakages and be able to handle a few ornaments without a problem. The only requirement my cleaners have is that they can clean - not tidy!

    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:

    That is brilliant - When is it for? Do the school pay or do you have to?

    How about just drifting around, in and out of rooms, not forgetting to occasionally stand immediatly over their shoulder making a sighing noise. Just trying to be helpful:)
