If you don't use cups is there any way of making nipples non-obvious?

I really don't mind this. If you have acres of boob I think a nipple kind of breaks it up a little. Other wise it all, on a big body, looks like a range of hills.

Have you asked for more RAM? I would probably have upgraded it myself as a private initiative, simply because I can't stand sitting around waiting for machinery.

This kind of thing is usually forbidden.

I tried to word something delicately and failed. I will just say that others have different ratios.

Absolutely. You would be doing the techy geeks out of a job. no need to spec requirements, suggest solutions, plan, implement, test, deliver.

Holiday plans going ahead, at the moment, I think.

Although I have internet abroad, using my debit card online over there often triggers security, with texts to phone the bank on premium lines to validate transactions. I end up not remembering passwords, secret questions causing all sorts of problems.

So making payments from here would be much easier. Hint! To michaels in particular.

How much mayhem will an extra stick of ram cause? There's also IT dept. hysteria, and they get away with it because they are experts and nobody dares challenge them. In the meantime, users are left high and dry.

Managers make decisions, IT just follow what they're allowed to do. If you can get a manager to sign it off then everybody's happy.

So, mayhem that's been signed off by a manager is okay, then? It's not mayhem? But the same thing done on personal initiative is mayhem.

You see how confusing this IT business is for people who are not part of the clique?

Most managers would happily pay £30 for an extra stick of RAM if they can get an extra hour of work per day as a result. I suspect that at the rate Michaels is charged at, we are talking about just a few minutes once off to break even. It's an utter no brainer.

But chewy isn't London based any more. It does make a difference to how often they'll use the car.

I used to drive quite a lot in London. To work and back and collect DS from nursery or my aunts, along with shopping and the occassional day trip. I did 4000 miles a year.

Now, LOL! I usually do 15k, but with one vehicle missing since late April, I/we have done 11k since March. It makes a difference!

I am sure there are contracts, service level agreements etc all of which were probably set up some years ago when economics were different especially at govt inflated hardware prices.

If people let me know how much by pm I can sub them until they can do the transfer if need be.

Its 8.51, how is every one doing?



I just closed cupboard doors in the kitchen, cleaned up after breakfast I didn't eat. But Rp did make me a super cup of tea so I'm ok.

On the bad side, pills are losing impact. Everything pretty much hurts this morning. Not badly, not in a way that ruins life or anything, but in a 'oh, right, I see' sort of way.

Next apt beginning sept.another new consultant ( to give secon opinions on previous treatment plans by another one) another new hospital. New physician recommends this one. Hasn't decided on which second opinion consultant to recommend yet. Depends on this guy.

Eta:

More grim ness on a Friday, fir likely to be late home tonight.

Sounds debilitating and demoralising...this may be one of those days when it is best to decide to do whatever is the best thing to conserve what energy you have and minimise discomfort. Not chores, not anything stretching but gentle, calming, relaxing, pleasant. Any unpleasant interruptions from people..tell them , today is not a day when you can help.
