    Thanks you lovely lot :T Met workmate at the train station yesterday and she'd got me a card saying 'it's a beautiful day' on the front, and 'and Cheery's nearly finished her PhD! Well done!' :j :j (we've had emails round every Monday morning for the last few weeks at work announcing an engagement, or a pregnancy or something, and those of us who are unlikely to have either were starting to feel a little left out! :rotfl:)

    So, up and in front of the computer already, lots to do today! Have a good one all. Working at home this morning so will be popping in and out hopefully! :T

  • Well done my dear

    Those pesky hens had hidden a nest with 12 eggs in it - how naughty!!

    Luckily I checked all the hidey holes on saturday so I know the eggs are OK.

    All girls, Einstein, Jock and Peedie say woo hoo well done cheery!

    Now then. Back from interviewing, which took all afternoon, another steep learning curve, but more enjoyable than yesterday, and certainly more relaxing. And a trip home on the top of a double decker bus! :T :T Always good fun :D

    Had tea, got a cuppa, and Mr Daffs has popped out for a bit, so I've got probably about 3 hours before I get too tired to do anything useful. I'm going to sit down with PhD and get as much editing and little things done as I possibly can, so when I come back to supervisors comments on my conclusions, that's the ONLY thing I've got left to do. Until then, I'm not even opening email, because I know I'll only get disheartened! :o

    So, the race is on! :T

    (oh, and I'd quite like a bath later please if the powers that be decree it!) Got to go into the office tomorrow and Thursday, so early morning tomorrow, so need bag packed and ready too.
