    So, Igor, I understand we are stopping off in Spain later today? Barcelona, no less, with the street performers disguised as statues.....good opportunity for Hubert to do his impression of a music box ballerina and earn us a few euros! Only a third of the way through our cruise and I am sick of constant work, setting tables all day long, only for some beggars to come along and mess it all up again at mealtimes.....and marmite is getting brassed off with constant cabin and bathroom duty, particularly after the incidence of upset tummies after Chef served that lukewarm octopus soup which definitely was off. Marmite is now on the warpath after Ladytrucker for preparing the octopus and Chef for cooking it. Looking at the giant heavy duty toilet brush in her hand, things are not looking good for either of them.....

  • Some pottering about at home today, all shopping done yesterday. If I don't get two NSDs this weekend then smack my bottom and call me Doris.

  • Yesterday was a spend day.
    I got myself a new winter coat with a hood that won't come off in my style for £10
    and got some lounge bottoms cos then I have an excuse to stay home (to wear them!)
    and my PJs are getting smaller & are old. Oh and shoes...in the sale.
    I'm trying to update my style and become the style i always wanted to be...

    hoping for an NSD today. Staying home, I purpously brought my bs pass so it ended yesterday so I couldn't go out.

    Doris reporting for duty....:(

    I was on course for a NSD until DS came in with a short and smart haircut, and asked me for a fiver in reimbursement. Seeing as we have been nagging him for the past fortnight to get it cut, and it looks really smart, I couldn't really refuse......

    Igor, just because the cruise ship is stopping off at Barcelona doesn't mean you have to dress up as a matador. Those tight sequinned trousers really do not suit you. And tell Hubert to get that flamenco frock off, they need him to help unload fifty crates of Olde Fartinge Bishoppe Ale for the Chav's Bar.....and there was I thinking this cruise would be an upmarket one for ladies of taste and refinement, like what I am. Pass me the Olde Widow champers, I feel one of my funny spells coming on....

    Not a great week for me, only managed one NSD this week. Must try harder next week.

    No need for expensive suntan lotion, purplemum, Igor swears by his home made concoction based on an old family recipe. No harmful chemicals, just 100% pure chip fat.
