    I almost had wine tonight but for some crazy reason, I had a cup of Lady Grey tea instead....bizarre!!!

    Was it because you are crazy?

    I didn't follow your example and had 3 pints instead :beer:

    Evening:)

    Basically, I advised that my insurance company were charging me £70 odd and I was not prepared to pay this, and surely they had insurance cover? When the said I did not, I asked if they had a courtesy shuttle service (knowing full well that they did so), reluctantly I was offered a lift into town, however due to staff shortages I couldn't be collected at the other end. So, I said that I didn't work in the town and this wouldn't be convenient so would have to re-book on the next suitable day (to me), and I would require a lift to my office, and collected at the other end for car pick up.....so LBR will not have his parts fitted for another week on Monday.....

    It's Friday night, I've had my nap and I'm now drinking - yep folks Lady Grey tea!!! All day long, I was thinking...mmmm so going to have that bottle of prosecco this evening with my fish and chip tea (although veggie I still eat fish), and whatdyaknow I end up napping then reaching for the Lady Grey - In fact I only woke up as my mobile was ringing:p

    My most exciting news of all today though is....and I'm almost too scared to say out loud just in case I jinx it..... my boss alluded to a new job title and ultimate higher pay grade FOR ME!!!! This would be amazing, and in the current climate I would be astonished if it came to fruition....although AND THIS IS THE AMAZING PART...(and it all depends on whether you subscribe to the law of attraction)....a few months ago, during the summer, my friend and I each placed an 'order' to the Universe for very specific jobs (titles, remits, salary etc). Anyway, my friend is now working in the job she 'ordered' - I'm not kidding!!! and then today my boss alluded to my dream job being discussed:D:D:D:D:D

    I will of course let you know what happens;)

    Best tea in the whole world :T. Have even rejected the free tea at work and bring in my own Lady Grey. Time for a cuppa now :).

    Things NP and GG have in common;
    1. we both love our tumble driers
    2. we both love Lady Grey tea
    3. we don't like novelty Christmas accessories

    Honestly GG, separated at birth OR WHAT:D

    Helen :eek:. My Lady Grey is all over the keyboard. Which sounds like a euphemism but isn't :rotfl:.

    Edit: Is the fact I spelt euphemism right 1st time a sign of my intelligence, or the fact I had to check it to make sure a sign of my thickness ;)
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    CANNOT believe I forgot about the wine....I was just far too excited to find another Lady Grey fan:j

    Euphemism is a word I can never spell without having to right click, auto-correct (in fact, just had to do it there)

    HDK - Twinnings LG, you should give it a go:D (an no, this isn't another euphemism)
