Doozer: sorry for the delay. Was hosting my parents for the weekend. I've just had a look for the sofa and have realised I can't remember which website it is on. Oops. Here is another one I like though:http://www.made.com/collection/garston-collection/garston-3-seater-sofa-cardinal-red-14397
My brother and I definitely used to share a bath. We also shared baths with visiting friends. As if that wasn't scandalous enough, I believe there is photographical evidence :eek:
That one is lovely. I like made.com a lot. I have a floor lamp from there.
DS still, very occasionally joins me in the bath and he's 13 now
I go there to read and soak rather than wash. He protects his modesty. Everything that is supposed to be in heaven is already here on earth.

Bantham! Lovely place, we had 3 summer holidays near there when I was a child, and I learned to swim there....much enquiry having been made concerning a gentleman, who had quitted a company where Johnson was, and no information being obtained; at last Johnson observed, that 'he did not care to speak ill of any man behind his back, but he believed the gentleman was an attorney'.0

The Boss is the opposite. He is like a kid (and not a Jewish one) he loves everything about Christmas....the lights, the story, the food, the movies (he loves elf and albert finney's Scrooge and the music and he gets super excited. He gets a bit stressed about time off....
This year its not been guaranteed though he has a few days off.
And he's had some 'bad' news this week that the senior solicitor in their dept has decided to leave, having been there a very short time. He joined froma. Magic circle firm and says he just cannot hack the work load at dh's place. (And its still nothing like as bad as pre credit crunch). The main problem with this is it leaves DH as the most senior solicitor in the dept (apart from partner) for a while and he only started this area of law about a year ago and I think he is feeling a bit in the deep end . They won't be able to replace this guy before Christmas so that will leave DH 'manning the phones" so not sure what that means for time off.
I don't get why they are so awkward about it.. So much can be done from home, its silly to be awkward.0 -

It is amazing that digital technolougy has taken off so much in africa etc.
Were you aware there are more mobile phone users in africa than US & europe combined?
The growth of the mobile & digital tech is amazing!

Sounds interesting. What was it called?

Next up, looking forward to this book as I find the guy absolutely fascinating

Best Christmas Film Ever. The entire Doozer famimly approves.
If he's the only one in over Chsrtistmas, no one will notice if he diverts the phone to the house, or you can go to the office too and make rude photocopies
