    Yes to lunch and yes to hiding :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: the new sensible me would definitely do that rather than working myself into the ground :D

    I love this! I really hope you had a nice relaxing evening.

    And, I can tell you now, I'm *finally* on the new laptop!

    Woohoo to the laptop!

    We spent the evening.. on the laptop (my laptop obviously not yours Karma :D) trying to sort out what to do about our internet connection - only got a dongle at the moment but the download allowance really isn't enough. After much scribbling I think we're down to a few options.

    Still feel exhausted today and really hoping I have a quiet day - apart form presentation number 2 later on... sigh!

    Yep, the commute would have been a bit far to get you onto mine! Sorry you're still tired - this winter has been looooooooong.

    It has! It's actually a nice day out there today but it's been pretty chilly the last few days.

    I forgot to mention - the Edible Garden book arrived yesterday, it seems pretty good, lots of indepth information about permaculture-type gardening and the best things to grow in small spaces. It looks lovely too, really well laid out and illustrated.

    And our fruit bushes arrived this morning.. looking forward to planting them at the weekend :)

    Expenses : £365 (rent and mobile)
    Debt repayments: £360
    Clothes: £42

    Still to pay electricity bill but waiting for correct figure as it was estimated. Blooming train tickets.. .but that is returns for both of us, and at least they're booked now.
