    I know, it's crazy! Think the bigwig in charge of what gets through the filter and what doesn't must be a fan! The Lottery website is allowed too as loads of people in IT are in syndicates, but all other forms of gambling are banned! Loads of people here get the Tuesday e-mails, always hear them discussing it on a Wednesday morning, makes me smile! :)

    Wendz - you should look at the flexible work options that are available. You are legally entitled to make an application if you want to.

    I will do. The people who work 4 days seems to be directors and even then they work more hours in those 4 days and still ony get paid for the 4! I know they will probably let me change my hours which i need to do as i would get back from work too late.

    Will have to get a spreadsheet and see how working less days would work moneywise.

    It is funny what works block isn't it! Nothing was blocked at mine , I think being a media agency we have to have access to all websites for research etc ;).

    I have flooring (and a crushed thumb)! Although not as much flooring as I should have, and they left it at the kerbside which meant I had to drag it up the drive and into the house (Dinah weighs a muscleless 135lbs, each flooring pack weighs 80lbs.... this was not an easy process) - boring to all but I'm so chuffed to have it so please admire oak hardwood !!!!!! (and if that doesn't get me blocked by your work filters nothing will!)

    Oooo the wood flooring looks gorgeous. Well done for carrying all that too!!

    Hugs to poor baby Max :( Glad to hear you've found the cause though, hope he feels better soon.

    The re-haircut was great, she basically cut my hair again completely as I wanted free of charge. Yay! Although it's quite short now, it's still cool :)

    Oooh I love me some oak flooring, lovely! You must feel like superwoman after carrying all that! :)

    Happy New New haircut Lara! Glad it's all good in the end.

    Feeling out of sorts this afternoon, all stomach achey and sicky feeling, and somehow my tongue feels too big for my mouth?! Stupid work's not making me feel any better either. Why isn't it 4.30 yet?! :(

    Aw CMD, poor little Max - sounds horrific! Must be awful for you not to be able to make him understand :(

    Dinah, floor does look nice! May I ask how much it is per metre and where it's from? I think we've resigned ourselves to laminate for the moment - not the cheap cheap stuff, but we're not planning on being in our flat forever, so just after something that will look good for a few years. but I LOVE solid wood flooring!

    Excellent work carrying all those on your own! How's your hip now? All better? I've had an abscess in my eye :( It was very painful and even more gross, but on the mend now, thankfully.
