  • First freebird being happy. :dance:

    Now YOU being happy... :dance: :dance:

    :think:

    Is there something in the water?

    If so, can I have a large sparkly glass of it?

    :rotfl:

    Fantastic news, LA. I'll call off the catarazzi as you really don't need watching!

    Freebird is the one to talk to for large sparkly things today methinks :D.

    As for me...well, I've still got a particularly hefty overdraft to sort out and a loan to pay off so, I'm nowhere near off the hook yet. I'll still be looking over my shoulder for the cats....:cool:

    Anyway, how are you my lovely?

  • Crashing headache. Made a curry tonight and it's rubbish (which is annoying because it's usually lovely). Feel sick after eating it. Still waiting for a start date for new job.

    :wall:

    Ouch! That's really NOT helping!
    :eek: What if the hokey cokey is what it's all about? :eek:

  • Oh dear, not the most successful of evening then? :(

    I hope you can do something soon that will make you feel better even if it's a cup of hot chocolate and a good book.

    The new job start date thing....did you get the job offer in writing hon?
    Could you chase them up...?

  • They're just waiting for a final reference which has been chased and is on its way.

    I'm just finishing formatting (so no thought required!) an essay here and will head off to bed in about half an hour. Sleeeeeeeeeeeeeeep is what I need!
