Making chicken feed of my mortgage

Local and global HR are both nightmares... silly me to think that HR were there for the employee *rolls eyes*

Did anyone manage to get Kate Bush tickets? We didn't

Plants IN 4
My fruit trees have arrived :T More hurdle-over than step-over :eek:

Just had a RMS survey item delivered... posted first class on 28 January 45 miles away... oops!

Eggs IN 5
Eggs OUT 0

Plants IN 6 (the 4 fruit trees from earlier + salvia confertiflora + buddleja globosa)

I spent the afternoon pottering in the garden - 100+ sycamore seedlings pulled (new since last week ), victoria plum tree planted, butternut squash seeds planted

My 2011 LTI shares vested today :T

Pasta with bolognese sauce from the freezer for dinner - the freezer is looking decidedly bare now :eek:

Alchemilla

There is a reason they call HR "anti personnel".

Wow, 100 or so sycamore seedlings! They're divvils I'm glad you caught them.

The shower is leaking again however that meant I got to lay in the bath with the sun shining through the window and dream that I was on a tropical island :rotfl:

Mr MWC transferred a "spare" £1,400 into the joint a/c this morning and I immediately transferred it to the mortgage The further advance is now <£30,000 :j

We need to go grocery shopping this morning - not only is the freezer bare but so are the fridge and the larder - it's gonna be a biggie :eek:

The downside of living on an attractive tree-lined street KC

Never mind there are a lot more positives and they are easy to pull if you get them early

Only(!) spent £90 - didn't buy any cleaning products, alcohol or toiletries though and the only meat/fish/poultry was 4 FR chicken thighs and a tin of anchovies...

Another afternoon pottering in the garden

Mr MWC tries to help but he has a "that'll do" attitude that winds me up. At 6 o'clock tomorrow morning (whilst he is asleep so I don't hurt his feelings) I shall be replanting the fruit trees he planted and lifting the turf he laid and levelling the soil underneath!

He's an absolute star in the kitchen though :T Sumac-spiced aubergine 'schnitzel' with puy lentil & feta tabbouleh for dinner :T

I'd happily accept that attitude to the garden if it meant that wonderful food got made for me! Enjoy!
