    If it takes you ten minutes lir, then you will probably be told that you are not doing it properly. Sometimes in life, you can't be right for being wrong... frustrating!

    If I hadn't mentioned it it would never be noticed whether it had been done or not I think. When I was in bed they hoovered twice, all summer. :mad::mad:

    I have however said I will not be cooking between now and Easter. This has gone down ok, and today quantities of pasta sauce in bottles were bought. I just don't get how I have this persons genes in me. I really don't . :rotfl:

    Trains are destroyed this morning - they are blaming it on the overhead cables catching fire...I think it's more likely to be because it is raining a bit.

    For some reason when major disruption happens the few trains are that do turn up are always empty - I have no idea why. I got a seat on a train at a time when I'd normally have to squeeze on and stand like a sardine by the doors. Perhaps I should start more fires....

    I missed the disruption this morning by catching the 5:55am train. I can't decide if that is good or bad :cool:

    Easy question, anything that involves a time in the morning before 9 is bad...

    I better start acclimatising to the clock change now I think. It seems to make it easier to prep.

    Flying visit.
    Why did I even consider thinking about buying a house during my busiest period at work?
    Had a mad day, not stopped. Last group was a nightmare (not due to them, due to their teacher!)
    Off to speak with the broker. Will keep you all advised. I'm assuming t'other place will re-open at the weekend? :)
    It's getting harder & harder to keep the government in the manner to which they have become accustomed.

    Funnily enough I love the autumn change for the extra hour in bed but it seems to take only 1 or 2 days to acclimaise ansd lose the benefit whereas the spring change seems to make me tired for a couple of weeks :(

    (I think there is science behind it in that studies show jetlag travelling East is much worse than travelling West?)
    I think....
