    Thanks you lovely lot :D:D

    Must say overhelming feeling is of exhaustion right now :D

    Llooooong day at work, thought I'd be cheery by meeting Mr DAffs in Doncaster and getting lift home but train delayed, signals broke, phone ran out of battery, and I ended up telling him to go home without me, just got back now, pah! :( So nice relaxing first free evening mostly gone! Pah

    Still - payday :D Going to book train tickets to London :D

    Mr Daffs just had to repair pancake maker :eek: :eek: Obviously overuse injuries :rotfl: :rotfl:
  • Awwww Daffs didn;t get in here much yesterday, but so SO pleased for you that you've finished and got the thing sent off!

    I'm sure we would have heard the wailing from here (and there! :D) if it hadn't been KC! From the sounds of it Mr Daffs is quite a handy sort of chap so hopefully he's fixed it!

    Mr Daffs is indeed a handy sort of chap, and Pancake maker is indeed fixed :D (you're right, you would have heard the wailing from the other end of the country! :rotfl:). The switch no longer works, but all that means is that you just have to keep making pancakes until you unplug it :D

    Missed the train to work this morning :o:o Telephone is in disgrace - keeps turning itself off, being unable to send text messages, and yesterday it was thoroughly uncooperative. This morning, I woke up at 7.45 (the train is at 7.54), and the phone was flashing - just flashing, not making a noise) and telling me it was 6.30. I wasn't impressed!

    (on the good side, I did get a decent night's sleep :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:)

    Tried to buy a new one on the way into work, but found out that if I take the free pay as you go sim I had to buy when I bought the last phone into the shop, I don't have to buy another one, so I shall do that later in the week :D

    Yawn.

    Wibble

    Just had an email from examiner to say that he can't open the file I send :D Goodness only knows what I managed to save it as! :rotfl: :rotfl: I've managed to open it on work computer (didn't dare read it again :rotfl:) and have sent it.

    Wibble wibble wibble

    Got to go and make some scary work related phone calls, that should take my mind off it at least! :rotfl: :rotfl:

    Good luck with the scary phone calls!

    Must be one of those days for sleeping/oversleeping. I really struggled to wake up yesterday, and again this morning, in spite of having gone to bed earlier than normal, so I was a bit mystified. Re-setting the clock radio after our power cut earlier on though I realised I'd not re-set the alarm on that after the weekend, so we were just replying on MrEH's alarm clock, which he always turns off really quickly, and usually before it wakes me at all. That would explain it then! :D
