  • We're are a rugby family too Igamogam, fed up with the TV being taken over for the round ball. Watched Woman in Black tonight instead. I saw this in the theatre and loved it, not sure that i enjoyed the film as much. It was still better than watching the wrong shaped ball though :rotfl:

    Another rugby fan here too but we aren,t doing so well down in the other hemisphere:(
    I do like football though, have followed Liverpool since the early seventies and am a big Stevie Gerrard fan so please he is the captain.
    Beautiful day today so going to get all the bedding and towels washed and line dried before the rain that is due tomorrow

    I am also a rugby fan but I will watch the cricket and the tennis - football leaves me stone cold and I am already bored with it being on the tv constantly.

    I had my hair done at the college today which cost me £24 for a cut and colour. I renewed my FSB membership too (necessary for the insurance cover I get). I have packed some more stuff away and dismantled my dining table (this is a collapsible camping table) but it has been erected for so long that I have forgotten how to fit it into the bag:(

    I have tentative news on the job front too - I have been invited to a work trial on Tues & Wednesday next week working from 10-5. I am to be thrown in at the deep end to see how I get on and how I intereact with the rest of the team. Another candidate is having her trial on Thurs & Fri, however, I will do my utmost to be the most brilliant person I can be so that I will get the job:D

    Rugby - but only league here - although did watch the England /Sweden match cos of the Moylesy commentary which was hilarious (and please BBC do another one) Tennis and cricket are a bit of a no go in our house (seriously I have paint I need to watch dry in preference)

    Got some very important bits of worky stuff done today and a listy made of more worky stuff that will be done before we break up. Am trying to get more organised this year and get the lion's share done in school time and then any work I do in the summer will be uni work or for next year's class (for a pleasant change)

    I have been busy packing - so far one crate packed full of glass and clothes. I have also just washed up a load of glassware and ceramic jugs to be packed in another crate.

    I have been sleeping a lot too as my unkindly neighbours have either kept me awake with raucous sex or off key singing into the wee small hours.

    Just waiting for my washing up to dry before I pack it away and I am sorting out other stuff. I need to wander to the bin too as I have 4 bags of rubbish to take down but I need to go through one bag because I appear to have mislaid my car registration document and if I can't find it will have to apply for a new one which will cost me £25:mad:

    Hope it turns up Horace - our missing calendar turned up yesterday during my 15 min of sorting out paperwork.
