    (((hugs))) to Aussielass
    Came into work only to find the lights won't work, so I can't see what I'm doing and the headphones are broken too. Not impressed. Also been left a snotty note. Role on 1pm and I'm out the door!!!
    Got some strange formatting going on, on here today, not understanding that one
    Research thing I did was fun. Hopefully I'll get to do more of them. Getting into my sit ups now. Even got some muscle starting to form just under my rib cage. Did quite a long work out last night. Need to lose a stone. :eek:
    New wheely bins have arrived for recycling at home, which will mean less trips to the centre for me:T
    Hope everyone's ok

    Morning All

    Bit chilly here at the moment and think is going to be quite cloudy today but staying dry which is good as OH is staining the decking.

    Some housework and paperwork planned for me today, have got more office work to do now as our main client hasnt paid again - we are due a large payment from them - so need to make some phone calls this morning and everything is crossed that they pay tomorrow or we are in trouble.

    Was going to do roast pork tonight but now dont fancy it so have changed meal planner around and are having chicken and chips.

    Hope you all have a great day.

    Good morning all

    Hugs to Aussielass ((( )))

    Today I'm working from home in the morning and through to a meeting at HQ in the afternoon. Then a slump in the evening!

    Muesli for brekkie, salad for lunch, an apple on the train home and then the remains of last night's meal for tea.

    I have a friend who keeps bees, and have read a couple of great books - Sweetness and Light by Hattie Ellis, and The Hive by Bee Wilson! It really is her name!! I've been to see my friend working on her hives, there is a lot to it, but basically the bees do most of the hard work, just need to keep them happy - but it is physically strenuous at times - full frames of honey can be heavy. Bee associations are very friendly places and most run beginner's classes. I haven't got going thanks to being unwell. Something to consider for the future.

    Any of you near the English/Scottish border, the Chain Bridge Honey Farm near Berwick has a great display with history of bee-keeping and wonderful products too.

    Now I'd better buzz off and get my breakfast!

    Have a good day, hugs aplenty where needed ((( )))
