    Hmmm that would be a good idea, only problem is that OH will be retiring soon and we live in a school and as soon as he leaves we will have to move. We had intended to decorate last year but now it seems pointless, we've even got all the wall paper and paint! No point in wasting it.

    I've spent the morning job hunting as I am now unemployed as of last week, I'm enjoying not having to get up and commute at the moment but I know that boredom will kick in shortly, there's only so much bowling on the Wii one can do :rotfl:

    I want to do something new and exciting!

    Posh bangers n mash is served Dragon, would you like any sauces with that? :D

  • Hello Jo


    Blast from the past here!!;)

    So glad you are happy in your new life and that things for the kids have settled down.

    I am still doing the long commute after 13 years and like you wish it could end.

    Currently off sick as was in hospital after a bad asthma/COPD attack
    but luckily for me was allowed home under a new scheme called hospital at home. It means they let you home and a nurse comes out every day to check your obs etc (you are still classed as an in patient . Have now been released from their care and should be going back to work next week.

    I have a memory of pork cooked in coke on a post a long time ago, admit I have still never got round to testing it. So for now please may I have a latte and a piece of choccie cake:)

    Good to see you again


    Love

    Hi,

    Can I please have a big slice of lemon cheesecake and a decaff latte? Ta.

    I asked couple of weeks ago if my old employer would take me back but haven't heard anything. I found out today that their competitor is recruiting, guess who is going to send off her CV?
