Good luck with the house move Nora. Sorry not been about much the commute I'm doing now doesn't give me much time in the evening as I'm home later but need to go to bed much earlier and get up at the crack of dawn! Sounds like you've been busy! I love the Kindle book buying conversation.

No probs, Sweetie - job going ok?

I'd forgotten how much a day at work takes out of you... I've turned into a very old lady - get home around 8.30, in bed by 9!

In bed that early, lucky you .


Job's ok, although some business events have made it a little bumpy to say the least. I'm normally up at 5:45, out the door for 7:00 (I need time to wake up, I can't understand these people that can get straight up and get in a car and drive), train at 7:30, in office for 8:00 or 8:15 depending what office I'm in and I'm not home until about 6:30. So I'm pooped. .

Wow Nora. You're going through the most stressful events in life and you still sound so chirpy! Can you throw some of that back daan Saaaff please?

good luck with the move, sounds like an ideal location.

Butter, Scuba...I've discovered that really all you need is a loaf of bread, butter and possibly an onion....that makes everything in the cupboards work well.

Don't put bread in the fridge, it goes stale quicker. Yep...strange but true...

Well, I've decided to move. Found a lovely little place earlier this week - about a third of the size of the place I'm renting at the moment, as I really don't need a mansion!

Cheaper to rent as well?

10 minutes from work (rather than 40), and 10 minutes in the other direction from most of my friends...expecting to save a serious amount on petrol!

On a slight aside, does it annoy the heck out of anyone else that you do all your banking and bills etc on line, and try and been nice and green, then bloomin' letting agents and such like demand 6 months hard copy evidence of the sort of thing you can only show on-line?! Grrr...:mad:

I never do banking and bill entirely online for that very reason. I also only have a passport for doing things in this country.

I don't - I promise!

hugely cheaper than what I pay now, though my current landlord had offered to lower the rent to a similar amount. Truth be told, being much more central to work and friends, and knowing that I can hermit away in the new place while I save for a deposit on my own one, were the main deciders.

Yay to new house :j

Yup. Though am planning to ring round and find out exactly how all this stands shortly, before I Go Digital and scan all the stuff instead of keeping endless bluddy lever arch files.

:rotfl: So I'm not the only one. I can't even co-ordinate myself to feed the cat when I first wake up. Driving would be a reeeeally bad idea.

Sympathies to the schedule. I am only just rediscovering the joy and privilege of going to bed early because there isn't anything I need to stay up and do

I'm apparently no good at either end of the day. Know how I know this? Because I forgot (!) I had a glass of wine to hand, and have just spilt it over the living room.... thank the ferret it's white wine!!:o
