    How about I won't give 4 weeks notic not a calendar month and start work for my new employer on 30 April whilst being on paid holiday by you, but I don't want to do an exit interview on 30 April and now I am sulking because someone pointed out the facts of a contract to me.

    Well it's one of those days when I cope but I wish people didn't try to push the boundaries when they are clearly marked.
    Nothing doing in the money stakes but hey early days of the month so time for a little relax before gym

    I would be doing anything but relax if I thought the gym was sneaking up on me :eek:
    There are always those that push the boundaries, although sometimes it is just taking advantage or the p*ss!

    It's a shame you haven't had the greatest of day, hopefully, tomorrow will be better.

    OK sorry I have been absent, I had a birthday to enjoy. French in-laws returned to Frenchland and I then spent the morning chauffeuring a poorly friend to hospitals and having my hair done, followed by lunch with DH and a snooze on the sofa with Puplet.
    having got up ridiculously early to make a meeting, I was called as I entered the car park to say the other parties are running over an hour late! I ask you - really and they didn't know this until 15 mins before the meeting! So currently munching an overpriced banana and drinking tea at the company's expense using the internet facility. Very annoying as I have a million more useful things I could be doing if I was not in a hotel cafe! Top of the list would be having more sleep!

    An iPad....sigh....oh I'd so like one of those....one day, when I have a job and am debt free!

    How clever of you to get it for work, it must be a hardship breaking it in:D I hope it fits in the new handbag!

    Yay to frog chasing doglets :j

    Really glad you had a good birthday.

    iPad training continues. We have one at home but DH has it permanently attached to him so rarely get chance to use it. It's a very nice toy though. Work has provided me with a MacBook and iPhone (well delivery of that next week) so iPad completes collection. Accounts nearly all set having password issues ahem! Need to walk Doglet now and see ponies. Should be an NSD for me!
