    Singing seems to be the theme of the evening - I'm out at the opera tonight! Hope you have a productive meeting though :)

    FW... while you're around, I'm booking travel for May and wondered whether you had any hotel recommendations for Oslo :) (or whether anyone else does, come to that!). We have one night paid for by work, and one night to pay for ourselves - and a whole day free to do whatever we want :j

    I'll try to be there tonight... better get out and go for a run before it rains!

    I have to apologise ladies, for the negative stuff (personal) that I've posting over the weekend. Not very Matrix like at all. My only excuse (reason) is that I've been feeling negative over this job situation and redundancy. That however is no reason for me to project my negatives in here. So I'm sorry (insert red-faced smiley):o.

    The four hour working week stuff was soooooo negative, and the thing is, if I was in an up-beat frame of mind, I would probably have tried to embrace it and sort of adapt its principles etc.

    Feel free to tell me straight if I get like that again :o.
    You have all been a strength of support and positivity to me and again I apologise.x

    Don't apologise. You've whinged a great deal less than me of late and you've not held it against me. Would you be telling me to keep quiet and not share my feelings? Nope so why not treat yourself the same way. Good news on the job interview, I would love to join in the meeting on the otherside but unfortunately as it's H's birthday today we shall be out this evening. Will check in tomorrow as soon as I can in case I have anything to add.

    Crickett - Hugs for you, and should you really be going to practice?? Beddy-byes might be better for you ;)

    More soul searching going on here which is why I haven't been really posting much last few days. Got a week off work with H and the kids this week so been busy going here, there and everywhere. Off to Legoland one day this week so looking forward to that :)

    My BF really is :smileyhea. I have been struggling at work all day and worrying about the mess in the kitchen that seemed to have brought colony of ants to visit me. So I knew that tired or not I would need to tackle it tonight. However when I got home I found out that he had been here today, done all the washing up, done all the washing, run hoover around, washed kitchen floor and put ant poison outside the house. What a star :D So now I am going to feed DD, put her to bed and crash. Might recover enough to come and join you on the other side later.

    Final tally is five bin-bags - and I am plucking up the courage to empty the wardrobe upstairs of all the clothes Iput away last year to try living with a capsule wardrobe.

    See Y'all later

    I would suggest that Matrix members have a meeting tonight on the other side - between 8.30pm and 10.00 pm - so that we can kick around some ideas with you. Keep an open mind, search, ask and all shall be well at the end. So I'll be there...

    I'll post teleconference details (free of course!) for those who are joining, and keep the conference room open for the 2 hours.

    Have asked the colleague who arranges all this and will let you know - I'll be in Oslo on June 9-10.

    How does the conference facility work on the Matrix Board?
