    In about 20 mins! Thinking of taking some of my soap down to friends :) Must go and put it in a bag! :T

    Also thinking I'm going to take pesky PhD out of rucksack - was going to read on train (!) and see what I can pull out for a paper, but actually it's a long way to carry such a heavy thing, so I might set aside some time on Monday evening to do it instead, which will leave me space to buy a Saturday paper and read that, which I haven't done for absolutely AGES :T :T

    (have got me knitting too :D Hoping to finish it off this weekend, which I won't be doing if I'm too busy reading the pesky phd!)

    Hard to have time off sometimes isn't it? (not most of the time, mind you, mostly I'm pretty good at it, especially when I'm meant to be doing something els! :rotfl: )

    Yay for ferry and sneaking back to bed, although booo to Mr F going home :(

    Hey Cheery, I must have missed something as I have no clue where you are going but I hope you have a fab time. Yes leave Phd at home and have a read of the paper.

    Yay to makeup being back, good luck for the masters. Xxxxx

    .
    Thanks! I'm getting up the courage to read through yours now!!
    Yay for cheerful soap! :T :T :T :T

    I'm up and raring to go. Busy practicing the art of Not Being Late at the minute - so currently convincing myself I do NOT need to sew myself a new bag to take away for the weekend when I only half 30 minutes left before I need to leave :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: Also managed to stop myself driving to B&Q on the other side of town at 6.45 last night when I only had 45 minutes to do the entire trip and it would only have worked if there'd been NO traffic and NO red traffic lights and NOBODY in the queue :rotfl: :rotfl:

    See, I'm learning ;):D

    Have a good one all xx

    That is my worst failing too, I'm late so much and quite often for the exact same reason. I always think - well it will only take me 20mins to get there which is based on the bus arriving just as I get to the bus stop and there being no horrible traffic!!! Seeing as most of my journeys go through central London that is a pretty ridiculous assumption - especially on Friday evening at 6pm......
    I've got my own flat :j:j

    Now I have to pay the bills :eek:

    And feed my interiors addiction ;)
  • I hope you've had a great day :)

    Popped to Bristol to see a friend and meet her new baby Mrs Moo :) Had lovely (if exhausting) time - mostly negotiating small sibling wars (she has 3 children now) :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    Back now, slow to get going this morning and feel like I need looking after a bit today :o But working steadily (even if not speedily) now :T Flute lesson in an hour, I've not played AT ALL this week - and am enjoying the fact that it really doesn't matter and I'm not going to be told off for it - this is meant to be FUN after all and the minute it becomes another 'SHOULD DO' thing on the list it's off!

    :p

    :T:T:T:T Quite right!
    But how can you know what you want till you get what you want and you see if you like it?

    Twas fun anyway - she made me do a flute/oboe duet (not both me, I hasten to add :eek: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:)

    Worn out this evening, so taking it nice and easy. Can see me being in bed by 9.30 at this rate - especially since I'm on the train at 7.12 in the morning! <yawn>
  • Um, popped to Bristol, even with my shoddy English geography, ain't that a long pop?

    Glad you had a good lesson xx

    It was indeed a nearly-3-hours-on-the-train pop - eek! Was very glad of my reserved seat...

    <yawn>

    Is it time to go to bed yet? I've made my dinner for tomorrow and done my homework and everything miss, honest
