    ...oh hang on, if I need the Maid for cleaning duties it still sounds wrong....stop digging Pepe!

    I put 'dig yourself out of a hole' into google images for an apt photo......there was something in the results on the first page that I really can't see the relevance of to the phrase :rotfl:

    I fancy having a go at putting some music on my new phone, anyone any recommendations for something a bit blues/soul? Kind of modern versions of Ella Fitzgerald type stuff? I fancy trying something a bit new rather than just the same stuff I always move between CD/laptop/mp3 player.

    Just back from babysitting neice - and she really wasn't that comfortable to sit on. Really they need to feed her more!

    I am on a mission to remove surfaces from all rooms so there is nowhere to deposit crap. Step 1 - Ikea shoe cupboard to construct, but first a glass of wine I think!

    that would be a good start Butti. That's the kind of thing I was thinking about. I love Carol King and over the last 20 years have worn out 2 versions of Tapestry!!

    On something nice? Frivolous? Essential?

    I'm just reading a friend's dissertation - the same profession as me but a totally different topic. It is really helping me to see where I went wrong and failed. Please cross your fingers I can get the reworking done on mine so it passes :dance: at the moment I feel more like :wall:

    Lovely day tho, and washing is on.

    What a lovely affirmation from your Mum Katsu.

    In other news, I haven't yet surfaced out of bed properly, unless you count getting up to make breakfast and tea, tea, lunch and tea, tea, tea and now beer....

    Just can't get motivated.
    YOUR = belonging to you (your coat); YOU'RE = you are (I hope you're ok)

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