    Well that shift was quite possibly the most boring 4 hours of my life!!
    I think the shoppers must have worn themselves out yesterday, it was dead dead dead!!!
    I found myself clockwatching and idly hunting for things to do from approx 5.30pm so very glad that my arris has now been reunited with the sofa :)
    I do however need to go and make some tea.
    hope everyone has had a lovely day.

  • Where do you work Lizzie? Boots was manic yesterday - probably all MSEers bargainhunting! All a bit grumpy though. Christmas busyness is so much happier than sale busyness.
    Yes, still with S Pap.
  • I work in Next bookie
    It was soooooo quiet, very very boring.
    Cant complain though, at least its a job, my contract ends on 8th January too :(

    Haven't done much so far today - was going into town (again!) but didn't make it (again!).

    Both my daughter and I have had our wing mirrors broken off (again!) by some idiots. There were about 5 or 6 cars that also had them broken. it is not just the cost but it is the hassle of getting them fixed.

    I've done nothing either - and talked myself out of going to town

    I need to go to the supermarket though, and planned to exercise! :eek:

    Been to the supermarket - my fave pizza yellow stickered :j

    But was tempted into buying a boo which I am about to curl up - whoops, was supposed to do a workout but have just eaten a mince pie :o

    Can I just say...I officially no longer have an overdraft facility anywhere!! :)
    I am so excited...the money from my dad cleared in the account today and I have downgraded one of my other accounts and never had one on my main account anyway.

    So now just the Credit card to pay off and I swear the only credit I will ever have again will be a mortgage if/when we decide to buy a house.

    EEeeeeeeekekkkkkkkkkkkk!!!!!
