Ooh - a countdown! Nearly as satisfying as a to-do list!


I can only manage a cup of tea or a glass of cola but I will definitely be drinking to you and your future happiness, AC, so will watch out about 5-ish (if I can tear myself away from The Chase).

And my Thanks button has returned to join in the fun!

Wow! Thanks for inspire me to do part 2 .
Don't know when to close part one and start the other

Anyway, things that have happened : strange looks from people who never understood me . A leaving present of 2 large bottles of jack Daniels and a box of chocolate truffles. , complete with card .
People who don't normally say much to me ,all of a sudden making a fuss and being nosey .( I was gonna tell them , I'm buying a place in Calais )
My boss is leaving at 4 pm. Wished me all the best and shook my hand.
My colleague keeps phoning me ,and texting me and being ignored.

Important : Got an email regarding the d&b booked for next week.
They will take the full amount now.Next week I have to pay additional £150
Deposit. This gave me a heart attack. Had to give one of my brothers a call
had enough just .Had to get to the bank to check

Brothers friend will do the move next thurs. He's gonna get a large van.
This could be really expensive .Then again ,if he's doing it , at least the jobs done . Doubtful tho if he can do a rubbish run. I will start tomorrow and. continue all the time .
Tomorrow ,i should put deposit on storage . .
Things are officially mental:)

Thought of you today AC and by now you will have left, did you do a massive 'yippee' as you walked out of the door for the final time or did you stick two fingers up hahaha :-))

Wishing you the very best of luck with your move & new life, I'm sure you'll keep us all updated, to be honest, I think you'd be tracked down if you didn't!!!

Thanks lady:) I will do as I'm told .
One dept made a big fuss of me around 4pm. Almost like giving a speech.
I told them they are the best dept (which they are):) The i t woman sitting
in the office wasn't impressed .she has all charisma of Katie price,and thanked me for saying that .
One woman ,in another department was told by me ' he is no.1 I'm no.2
Basically telling her she is full of pony
Most didn't bother with me .Finishec with my boss on good terms.
A couple of staff have my email address .a top director made a fuss of me.
I like him


So ,it's over !:)
Just the Money stress and moving stress to come ..
