    Bookie would like to put it on record that she does NOT run and has no intention of starting! And she also hopes the office will have a shower! :D

    That was my first thought too :rotfl:
    I've been invited for an 'in store assessment' for a Christmas job at Boots.

    Good luck! Would that be extra to what you're doing now, or instead of?


    I'm naughty, I'm still feeling like crap so I've ordered a takeaway. I'll be doing lots of housework and stuff over the weekend to burn it off though.

    Sammy - get a bit of wood - a length of 2x4 for example and prop it against the closed door leaning on it. It provides some pressure to keep the door closed.

    Or you could try some other heavy household item, maybe even a doorstop?

    Or the OH?:D

    Good thinking Suzy! Although I've never used chopsticks so they'd last forever with me!

    Good Luck Bookie.

    Oh Suzy, that is crap. Did you count the money when the man gave it to you - I always feel embarrased doing that because it seems like I don't trust them, so I just sort of glance at it - difficult.

    Have emailed the eBay people to ask for the turquiose ones and they haven't replied yet - if nothing happens, I will have to open a 'not as described' dispute! Blimey tis only tea towels.

    good luck to Bookie

    Am frantically packing for weekend away. Kept late at work today due to unclear instruction for urgent work given by mrgs 1 & 2 that ended with another manager saying that the task I was given was a waste of time and not needed - and that it was known yesterday!

    Hugs to everyone - think of us erecting our trailer tent for first proper use - only put up in the garden once before! - in the dark!
