    That's no way to talk about your colleague, Anna :p
  • Boring today . Coping with humidity at present .
    This time tomorrow , it'll all be over , and it's bye bye humidity .

    One good thing, is that nobody else as far as I know is leaving the company. That means, I'm next !:)

    It's due to be 27 in Hampshire today, perfect day for sitting in the office with the dog :rotfl:

    Bring the dog to my 'office' and I'd set him/ her on my colleague .

    Ooh Smodlet, you are awful, but I like you.

    Another hot one here.....

    I have just upset my 90 year Old dad. Nearly gave him a heart attack when I told him about my Amazon trip in 2018.

    Good job I didn't mention St Petersburg next May (all those communists) ;)

    I also had a load of earache last night from my DIL about the Zika Virus. Well without being indelicate, I shall be 66 and not likely to get pregnant am I. Not that I plan on having any sex:rotfl:

    ........but never say never ;). It's never too late to fall in love.

    What is wrong with them.........have they no spirit of adventure.

    AC. What would they make of you......starting a new life when you are over 50.

    How very dare you.:rotfl:

    Saiiling, surfing ???? SHame on you!!!

    Didn't you know that us old 'uns should be donning our carpet slippers and watching Emerdale on the tele.

    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Ok. Cue today's song......

    AC please tell me you have anti-gravity pads under your furniture :eek::eek::eek:.
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    Besides , the carpet is old and it was up to me if I let the buyers have it.
    On the fixtures and fittings form. They've also got a broken fan oven which I've declared broken:)
