    Good Afternoon :)

    Ended up walking to work this morning took me 55 minutes and I was late :eek: :rotfl::rotfl:

    I set off walking and didn't see a bus :(

    Work/school shut at 1-15pm headmaster waited til kids had eaten their dinner.

    Quite a few schools closed early.

    Its still snowing.

    Bus arrived coming home but I had to get off near bottom of my street driver said no way was he attempting to get up it :( I told him to let me off and I would walk the rest of the way :D

    I was there half hour ago so we just missed each other :)
    I'm highly stressed out (will explain over our catch up next week :) ) work is really getting me down :(
    Don't come on here much, feeling mostly invisible at the moment (not just on here)
    Glad you got the cheque in the end :j

    Sorry you're feeling invisible dipdap - hope your avatar is not a further indication. :eek:

    You're never invisible on here. :)

    Oh dear, DD1 failed her theory test by 2 marks this time. She is realy depressed as she felt she had worked really hard for it :(

    On the plus side, Slough Extra had loads of 10p wrapping paper and quite a few cards and decs. Think I now have enough paper for next two Xmas's! :)
