    I genuinely forgot my sarnies and left them in the fridge I was so upset. I have had a busy day today. I had a blood test at the hospital early in the morning. Taxi fare was £12. Now marking awaits.

    2 days till weekend, 9 weekdays till payday. I think my laptop has stopped working and is unfixable, it got me through lockdown so i dont mind. I will visit the computer shop on Saturday for the official verdict and will pay their bill. 

    A seagull has pooped all over my window. I am not pleased!!! lol. I am taking the rest of the night off. Two days till the weekend. Hurrah!

  • You could try asking on the tech board to see if they can help you fix it and save money.

    We've still not worked out how a seagull did it on our window!

    Hope you're making plans for the weekend.

  • Hope you feel better after eating and having a sleep. Just do the work when you feel better.

  • That's good, don't overdo it this evening and get another bit of the tree ready.
