    Morning,morning,morning!!!


    MrT have taken the money for their shopping AND only once AND let me have the authorised amount back! ;)
    BIG GOLD STAR for them - will use again, most definitely.....

    sw and copperjar - how good to see you both back. Don't worry about catching up - it's 90% waffle on my part with timely interjections from wordsmith and aesop and dojo lurking as usual!!!
    :D

    Well, the baked beans certainly had an "effect" but a small price to pay for the yumminess and MrT still crept under the covers. I certainly wouldn't feed him beans, sw, he is bad enough already. For a small dog he is like a wind turbine.....

    A lovely morning here and I am leaving work an hour early today :j I was owed an hour from March and I can take it today before my manager takes 10 days off. They are having a meeting today to sort out the office hierachy in her absence. I couldn't care less as long as my young male colleague pulls his weight :) which is not always the case.... youngsters, huh?

    I had a little bet over the last few days and it has accumulated to winnings of £60.... hooray.... so I am off to Ar*os to buy a lovely rug that I have had my eyes on for weeks. It is creams,greens and browns and very Morroccan and will look lush in my study/work room. There is one left in my local branch and it has got my name written all over it......:D

    Not hanging around - MrT needs to have another walk before I go to work.... speak tonight...

    Hugs

    Did you get the rug? Does it look lovely? Could you wash off your name? Did you bagsy being in charge of the whole deparment while your manager is on holiday?

    SW Not saying no is as good as a Maybe, which is as good as a Yes! Sorted.

    Helloo......

    From the top..... Left work at 4.25 - stayed to do some filing ( sorry did someone say something about a**ekissing again!) and I don't really want to be in charge while she is away - I might get a bossy head on and I don't want that. As long as he does his fair share all will be well.
    Yes I got the rug - it is thinner than it looked in the piccies but it is still very nice indeed and has a real hand woven look to it. It should do, because it is!!! It is 100% wool and lovely colours. MrT is currently throwing himself around on it playing with a soft toy... my name was written on the plastic packaging so no harm done :)
    Been out in the garden briefly planting two pampas grass plants - one white and one pink - I do hope they take, they seem healthy enough. Fingers crossed.
    I am feeling quite chilled - nearly as chilled as the bottle of vino in my fridge that I might just have a glass of tonight as I watch even more footie - Real Madrid and Barcelona - all those hunky hispanics and latinos ..... yummy!
    Speak soon,
    Hugs

    So is it football or footballers that you like to watch?
