    I can't believe you told me to watch something scary! I still get scared in taxis because of a Starsky and Hutch episode from years ago.

    Well done on the 'did dos':D

    Not quite as scary as Kirstie Alcopops trying to convince us that old tennis rackets make cool mirrors :cool:

    1. Be able to go to bed without checking under it at least 50 times!!


    I already can't reach for something on the floor during the night in case the bogey man gets me :o. Not a joke :cool:.
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    Thanks lula:)

    I am currently mentally preparing my new, personal 'Code of Practice' for returning to work. This is to make certain I do not become bogged down, or have my energy sapped by the following;

    #Work politics

    #Office griping

    #Colleagues who feel it is acceptable to dump their work problems on to me

    However, today is the last day of my holibolibobs, so the remainder of work 'thinking' can wait until Monday

    :D

    Ooooh, are we allowed to know what the code of practice says once you've decided?

  • Oooo well done on your list np - very impressive amount done!!

    I also have a back to work code of practice
    1) ignore office politics (I don't tend to get involved but it's easy to get dragged down/into moaning!)
    2) Take lunch hours and finish on time ....
    3) concentrate on getting thriving interior-design-and-fake-pimms business off the ground! :rotfl:
