  • Wow FW you sound Super Intelligent. I need you living just around the corner to me !

    I agree any form of mentoring looks great on a CV. Friends son is a really really lovely boy, beautifully spoken , impeccable manners and a lovely temprament so I know he would be very patient if she was struggling and a really bright lad. I will have a chat about it with Mr Pinot when he gets back next week, as I havent even mentioned it to him.

    How was the hair cut and the weekend ? Hope it was good x

    I'm not I swear, I feel very very stupid sometimes at work compared to some of the people here I just always thought it was good to help other people get better at things they struggled with. My parents taught me well ;)

    My hair cut is fab, everyone at work loves it. One of the managers commented it makes me look older. I'll share a pic when I'm done up on Saturday night.

    The weekend was good except the football (didn't help my OH is a Man U fan so whilst he sat next to me at the match I had no one to complain to about his team) I managed to get a thin belt to go around the seam where the elastic is on my dress and some lovely blue shoes from M&S, decided I'm taking a big bag with me so I can put some flats in and my big camera this year to get good photos instead of blurs like last year.

    Only 2 more days this week and then I get to see my best friend :D So happy.

    The pasta bake was yummy :)

    Yup one new tyre and two still barely legal, I said if they're legal leave them I'll sort it. Apparently they're all perished but hey ho will just have to keep an eye for now. Brother is sourcing me two for the front.

    Just what I wanted a £45 bill before I got to work. At least they took no for an answer.

  • What delights I awoke to this morning !

    Despite singing the praises of "The Cat That Shall Not Be Named" and how goo dhe has been recently, I awoke this morning to the loveliest present yet !!

    My beautiful White Walls in the Utility and Downstairs Loo are covered in Cat Sh*t. He appears to have had a MAchine Gun for a bottom last night and has managed to spray it all up the walls, radiators, sink. Well you name it really its everywhere. :eek:

    I realise of course that he must be feeling poorly, but why not sit nicely in his litter tray and do the deed in there I ask you ?

    The girls thought it was hilarious, of course, they didnt need to clear it up did they ? Mr Pinot was sent a photograph of the Scene, to make him feel guilty of course that I have to clear it up and not him ! Where is he when I need him , Birmingham of course, a million blinking miles away ?!!

    Ninja style, I have wrapped a towel around my head, face , nose and scrubbed away for the past hour and a half. Try getting Cat Poo out from behind pipes. I have thrown the litter tray in the bin as although he didnt do anything in there it was all over the outside. Yuk ! Im not even attempting to clean that out. He now has an old washing up bowl I found in the garage for his litter tray until I find time to get out and buy him another. I have scrubbed with cloths, toothbrushes, scrubbing brushes, steam cleaned the floor and bleached everything in sight, even myself I think.

    Anyway its done, well as best as I can. Mr Pinot home late tomorrow night so he may need to give it another going over.

    The sooner that cat can go out to play the better !

    Off for the second shower of the day now ! xx
