Hiya Pixie, enjoy your lazy mornings while you can I say! I wish I was at home enjoying the weather rather then being stuck in an office!

If you can't find the manual I'd suggest apologising to the buyer & offer either a partial refund if he or she is happy to keep the game without the manual, or you'll have to offer a full refund once the game has been returned to you. Fingers crossed you find it soon.

Ooh edit:- Just wanted to add Rock_cakes that in the meantime just keep your buyer up to date, acknowledge the message & let them know you're going to give it a couple of days of looking before offering refunds etc. As a buyer & seller I'd much rather be kept in the loop then just ignored.

Hmm, seems the multi quote option only picks up 3 posts :cool:

I am trying to reduce my carbs as in minimal bread, potatoes and pasta! It is soooo hard. I am allowing porridge in the morning but trying not to have anything high in carbs after that! Dinner isnt too bad as we are just having a lot more veg. Snacks and lunch are the hardest. Trying to have a lot of fruit but lunches have to plan in advance. Today i have tomato soup but sometimes we cook chicken breasts the night before to eat for lunch! Boiled egg for snack today!

I hope everyone has a great day

I am getting married 3 weeks tomorrow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Fly out in 2 weeks!!!!!!!!!

Don't go losing too much weight with the no carb diet else your dress will be hanging off you! Exciting stuff though, only 2 weeks until you're there! Hope everything goes well!

Thanks for your thoughts, DNMS. I'll definitely be back with tales of mild exoticism! Also thanks to ziggy, pernie, Rock cakes for your thoughts yesterday.

Had my last day at the office yesterday, which was really nice. A colleague gave me books for the journey, I got my new work laptop sorted and there were some really nice goodbyes. I got an ipod shuffle as a leaving gift (aww!) and a £15 itunes card which I need to use before leaving the country, so I need to sort that out today. There were some sniffles and hugs - I really will miss lots of the people there.

I fly at about 9pm, so lots to do between now and then!


Today:

• Book cab as I forgot to yesterday
• pack seccond suitcase and cary on bag
• fold laundry
• wash sheets and hang to dry
• take out rubbish (must not forget to before I go!
• figure out itunes and use card
• do washing up and clean the flat so I dont leave it a tip
• frame photo for O
• sew buttons on to blazers
• file papers I brought back from the office
• do once over of house to make sure I havent forgotten anything
• maybe pop up to shops to get shoes as I didnt find any on Sunday
• have a last drinkie with my former boss who happens to be jetting off on holiday at the same time from the same terminal
• try not to forget my passport!!

Love to all of you! See you on the other side.

More exciting stuff!!! Lol. Aww your colleagues sound lovely, hopefully you can keep in touch still. I hope you have a safe journey & make the most of your time out there, I want to hear all about it!
