    It's focus I need more than anything. I get distracted really easily

    hi decoupage - that's the word! i just couldn't think of it.

    I'm not too bad just bunged up, don't have my full shouty voice yet which i'm sure OH is pleased about. Survived a whole day at work, was going to stay late but then felt like i had the shakes so decided that i'd stayed there long enough.

    Hi there! I clicked on your username, to get to your blog, and noticed for the first time ever that it also tells you what the person is looking at at the moment ... and you're looking at my thread :D I never realised you could spy on people that way! I wonder if you kept refreshing it, would it show what people were clicking onto ... my word, that could be bad :eek:

    sometimes I just watch the progress on my subscribed board - you can tell which route we often take on that :D

    OK so you're the one who comes via mse :) thank you :) I can stalk you over there too!

    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: good grief! I didn't realise the level of stalkeriness involved :p

    You sound like you're getting lots of work done Pippi, thats excellent for the budget - but it doesn't sound like you're in daylight at the house at all if you're out for those hours, what with the travelling and general to and froing. Hope the birdeez are doing well.

  • I'm guessing at the moment that Pippi's daylight hours are something like 8.30am - 3pm, I know the Hebrides are well and truly in the dark by just after 3, and I think Orkney is broadly similar. One of the things I used to hate about working at my old job KC was that in the winter I never saw the flat in daylight during the week - it really drags you down after a while.

    LT You might try the Boots effervescent energy tablet things - they're like berocca and similar only far cheaper! (They were giving them away as a freebie with three purchases from the vitamin & supplement range a while back) They are effective, but do turn your wee dayglo yellow so be warned! :rotfl:
