    Narked? Nay, nay and thrice nay! This is the "helping people do what they ask for" me.

    The narked me had these in the mix.

    Along with a tunnelling electron microscope.

    Some people are being funny, and some people are being humourous. I just hope that somebody had a secret smile at it. ;)

    Ouch.....though I can quite see the attraction to these implements.....they would get the job done wouldn't they?:eek: ......'Along with a tunnelling electron microscope'....is that an up the jacksey instrument? If so, had that ...not nice....:o particularly not when you are being held down on the bed by a very nice sri lanken nurse who doesn't quite see why you are trying to climb off the bed and out of the window!

    Deep Breathe.......................anyway getting down to the jobs in hand, I have put £100.00 in bank account today and got a printout of my direct debits and standing orders, 3 of which I am unsure of there origins which goes to show that I really need to get my head out the sand.

    Didn't manage to ask for nitty gritty comb at Docs because I've been at work and didn't get the time.

    Well I suppose I could have rang them in the office and be overheard by my work colleagues asking for the (stage whisper) "Nit comb for infestation of Head Lice", and watch all those faltering smiles and 'chin up' looks with pity in their eyes, from my colleagues who I'm sure already think I'm a bit wierd. So will try again tomorrow.

    Also didn't get to ring those Natwest call centre fine people aka minor gods and godesses, who have the power to say, in a nasal tone 'thanks for explaining your continuing ineptitude regarding your finances, I'm going to refund that £90.00 back into your account even though you are clearly highly rubbish', at which point I'd gush, 'Oh are you sure, well thanks very much' grovel grovel. I really can't do it face to face, thats why I didn't mention it in the bank today. But I will give it a go tomorrow.

    Came home to make myself an egg butty (northern expression for sandwich) so figured I'd saved some money that I don't have to spend even though I drove 2 miles to make my butty...........ok...........figured it out........yes.......I got it tomorrow...............I'll make the butty's and .........take them to work...........high five............I can do this.

    See what I mean the logic is there but in another universe. I'm trying though. Anyway, thats it for now, I'm off to do battle with Turbo Lister which is neither at the mo as it won't upload my stuff for ebay. Cheerio.

    nope! neither were fathers wearing only boxer shorts inviting me in (having sent their chidlren on crutches and in full body plastercasts out to the shops), having to 'find' chidlren whose parents thought the teachers time was well spent joining in family hide and seek or being given poo presents (yes close your eyes and I'll give you a present - that was a quick lesson). But nits is not good - must laugh else will cry...bothers back to school on Thursday!

    I've know a few social workers with similar stories (they got locked in the house!:eek: )....yep....rather you than me lovey!!

    Amos...you are one of those people whose posts I have found to be...sometimes helpful........(maybe I've been selective in my reading....other people seem to get knarked with you easier than me....?)....sometimes funny and sometimes really arsey........don't spoil things for yourself or others.......you don't always have to go on the offensive (or defensive)

    Then don't bring on the hoodoo and we'll all be fine. I want to help people but don't appreciate people who judge me because of my life choices. I'm sure everything will be fine if it's just dropped here and now.
