    Oh Kerry, that's EARLY!! Still, I can see exactly why you'd need to and be willing to. All the best and good luck with more temping work! :)

    Thanks Sue. At least the events I help out with are few and far between. Only happens between July and October. Got a 2 day temp job, tomorrow and Friday in London.

    Went to the cinema to see Fright Night today. Colin Farrell as a vampire was yummy! David Tennant in eyeliner was also a highlight. The film was great as well. I took my own food and drink and had an Orange Wednesdays code so it was a pretty cheap outing. It's just a shame that the weather was horrible so I had to drive into town and pay for parking instead of walking like I usually do. Could have done with the exercise, it's about 2 miles each way.

    Anyway, I came home with 60p change in my purse so that's gone straight into pot 1.
