    doing another job application. Hate the bit where you have to write about your experience etc. I don't have a problem with knowing what to put but it's the pain of having to sit and write it all.

    Katsu that's the sort of thing I do, although usually I forget to turn the cooker on.

    There's a thread on dt about take aways, it's made me really want pizza or fish and chips. I will resist!

    I'm catching up on some paperwork, I've torn myself away from watching grand designs from about 7 years ago.

    I'm watching a dodgy horror, so I'm probably not going to feel like food for a while!

    Claire - That does sound like sciatica - the Dr should be able to give you some different tablets if ibruprophen is upsetting you or as Katsu suggested, a tens machine might help. I used to get sciatica a lot after a car accident and found stretching helped.....I get flare ups now and then but try and stay as dosed up and active as possible.

    I've achieved nothing today - which was the aim. DH's friend popped in for coffee so I left them too it for an hour and had a crafty nap....then DH spent the afternoon in bed so it's been very quiet.

    Tons to do tomorrow so an early night is planned.

    My housemate Ben's rented Kill Bill and the Wicker Man (the original), both of which I love. I asked him to give me a knock if he puts either of them on but I'm getting really tired now and I almost wish he wouldn't watch them tonight. Which is stupid since I really enjoy both of them and I should make more of an effort to socialise with my housemates. I just really want an early night as well.
