    Thank goodness yes he is. He sounds knackered. Screaming kids on a night flight but he can rest now.

    How are you keeping MM? Good I hope.

    Heading out home now - may just flake...

    Thanks all.

    Ha no, it's was BA..so must ask him if he had to pay for his own sandwich!! It's a company thing..always fly though BA as they have a company wide deal which makes it much cheaper. I thought the United 'event' was appalling. So so badly handled. I hope they really learn to regret their behaviour. It was like a anti terrorist action, rather than removing a fee paying customer from their premises. And why was he singled out I wonder? Yes I wonder. His surname perhaps?? His age??

    OH's zonked. Fairly zoned out. I slept badly..partly cos he's jet lagged...also cos I am so exhausted. But I am planning to have my hair cut today and then go and see the football. Free tickets so can't be bad. Well could be...let's see how they do!!

    That's my day. Nothing else. Except eat and sleep. Can't fli00ng wait!! :rotfl:

    Kids (not mine) are up and careering down the street making lots of noise. Love their energy. Time for breakfast I think! And a nice coffee from hubby...whoop. Joy of small things.

    Ugh. In bad news he's put the heating back on... I know he was working somewhere very warm and it's on timer, but really. One comment from the kids who wander around in teeshirts and he relents...oh well. Am staying out of it!

  • Actually, I fully expect you to feel cold today. I want you sitting around doing absolutely nothing apart from when you go to footie. That'll make you chilly so you'll need that heating on!!!

    Just finding the silver linings!!!

    Crazy times!!

    Actually not too cold for the footie and a win..much needed so all good even though not a great game in my inexpert and necessarily humble opinion...then went for pizza to a new place and to the movies...a great day. Not a single chore or piece of paid work even thought about....bloody marvellous!! :D

    Planning to sort garden today and do a BBQ...grey but who cares? Will do it anyway..OH finishing off reconciling YNAB...I am reading the paper :)

    Have a great weekend
