    I'm sure I'll be able to make another trip to balance things out - if you insist ;) (or even if you don't!)

    I'm sure no-one posh will visit my home. But if they did I'd explain it with a smile and tell them about the weekend I helped my friend move out of a dark, horrible flat into their lovely new home :)

    Well, somebody more grown up than us two then :)

    It was dark and horrid really wasn't it.... and this place is light all over, all day. Not direct sun/south facing to the rear, but certainly gets all the sun and lots of reflected light too.

    Alan Carr - annoying, but makes it feel like it might be a different night to usual - as other channels all have usual stuff on.

    I'm flitting between Radios 1 and 6. I'm dancing in my seat. Only a matter of minutes before I'm dancing round the living room like an idiot.

    Like I said... party for one :)

    At least you've nobody but yourself to blame if somebody's sick on the carpet :)

    I'm sitting here, the height of sophistication: oversized comfy leggings, fluffy socks, a sparkly top, an oversized zip up hoodie ... eating crumpets from a plastic picnic plate, with a black coffee.

    Hopefully I'd make it to the loo :p

    As I explained to my friend on phone earlier. I'm dressing up for tonight... seeing as I've spend the past few days cleaning I've treated myself to a clean pair joggers and hoodie. And I wonder why I'm sat at home, alone :D

    Edit: I have some pink cava , with a splash of my home made sloe gin... whoa! It's good (even unsweetened), but I don't think I should have another :eek:

    Happy New Year Nice Peeps.

    Our New Years Eve has featured d&v for DW, and DD2 who is finally recovering from pneumonia developing a nasty rash which google suggests is fairly common for amoxicillin, further diagnosis is difficult as the only option is the a&e 30minutes away.
    I think....

    Great idea.

    We're drinking our way through a magnum tonight, started with French 75's, have now moved on to Sloe Royales, and may have enough left for a plain old glass of champagne to toast in the new year.

    Or not..... Hic.:D

    Spirit that is a lovely post :)

    I hope that all the things you, and all NPs, wish for in 2015 come to pass.

    Nikkster, I like your style :T

    I've been relishing the Mapp and Lucia programmes on BBC1. Such wonderful ascerbic one-up-manship and b!tchiness under a veneer of small-town civility :D

    Miranda Richardson and Anna Chancellor at their best, with Steve Pemberton and Mark Gatiss 2 of the supporting actors. Would thoroughly recommend on iPlayer.

    Was just doing my last bit of washing up for this year, when I realised I had a bit of unfinished business... decided the bathroom was clean enough, and the paperwork in the corner could stay there... but there were a couple of emails (received Dec 23rd) I'd been putting off reading...

    Now I've had an, ahem, couple of drinks I was ready to hear that my thesis was even worse than before... but apparently it's 'really taking shape now. Well done'

    Eff me.

    So I guess I just need to hope that the Powers That Be don't kick me out. And keep on with whatever it is I managed to do.

    :)
