    There you go :) me auld laptop helped out.

    Waves.

    Into a 'conference call I go' -- not planned for today but seems its needed for HQ etc.

    Think of the beans - so my day is now completely upside down - but I'll think if dynamically scheduling myself to do my own work later when I was dynamically having me feet up instead I'll be playing catch up.

  • One job done tea to sort (something fishy) and then watching the debate on STV between Salmond and Darling. Then a bit of catch up work.

    Order on 'tinternet for stores £62.01 - seems alot but we'll see it worked well before. Toiletries/Pet Grub/Bedding/Cleaning stuff too.

    Lots left in the cupboards though so my idea of what we actually scoff seems a bit overblown compared with what we actually eat.

    :D

    Chooks provided 6 eggs again.

    Clever girls.
