Oooh Its leap year - so who will propose I wonder - not me I'm afraid, well not unless I run into the theatre / house guy IYSWIM!!!
LOl at hopeful and the MSE-watershed dinner, its funny the things the rudey word filter takes out.
Last day of the month - so some chore busting to start the new month off with a big bang - might even resurrect a challenge or two to keep me on my feet.
But first - pack the lunches and get a new battery fitted

I sent Mr GG a text this morning saying 'Happy 29th February, will speak to you later xxxx'. He replied saying 'Who is this?' :rotfl:. Guess I've got him running scared. In his dreams. He CAN afford me, but is too mean to afford me

Grrrrr!!!! Someone has parked right at the nose of my car and I haven't got enough room to swing around and bump start it. Will have to wait until I can collar someone to jump start me again so that I can get off to the garage to get another battery fitted.
Mind you the person blocking me in did a sterling job - about 6" either side so I am guessing they mut have super-power steering.

Can you roll your car a few inches closer MG? Then if the driver knocks and asks you to move you can explain you have no power, and they'll never be able to work out how they got in there
(and they might help you start it).

Car now fixed - was def the battery - dead as the proverbial. Got the lovely guy downstairs to give me another jump start when he got into the studio..
So car is AOK - but my overpayments have taken a £62 battering - look on the bright side actually had the money and didn't have to borrow to do it - so miles better than this time last year.
Onwards and onwards my lovelies

Nah!!! for that I still need serious jump- leads :rotfl::rotfl:
Forgive me Matrix for I have sinned - no not THAT^:D
Was in L**l carpark and three lads (young enough to be in Primary School) were playing football - obviously ditching school.
Got toddler out and walked across car-park and ball hit DS2 knocking him over.
Boys run over - tells him he is a cry-baby and runs off.
Comes out - and the the boys start shouting (pretty rude stuff) as I load up the car. Ball hits car and I shout over to them to clear-off back to school.
"Schools for losers" they reply.
Gets in car and head towards exit - ball deliberately gets kicked at my car bouncing off my door. So I stop the car, get out, lift the ball, get back in the car and drive off with the ball.
Gave them "the look" but didn't say a word.
So - I guess I am now in the wrong - so do I take the ball back to Manager at the Supermarket, back to the Head of the boys school, or drop it off at the Police Station?
