Sorry Squeaks

I have edited my last post & just left the Denplan link for Curry Queen, is this OK? I have no connection with them other than as a satisfied customer.

I'm really not sure. The policy on medical advice is very strict - as it needs to be. I'd be happier if you were to post that info into the Health Board where the Board Guide there will know a whole lot more about what is and isn't permitted.

I think your post is OK but I don't know for sure.

You could leave a link to it once you're done

Well...the show is a travelling show that goes from town to town. Like a carnival. It's on tonight and also on for the full day tomorrow which is our public holiday. Lots of fun for the kids & the farmers show horses, bulls etc. Ho Hum. Nobody but us gets it. :j The temp here at the moment is about 15 degrees. Would be colder outside.

OOHHHH Luuuurve those sayings. I shall add them to my list of well used odities. (If Ma Lillibet doesn't mind);) "Bogetory", "Did it Thump" and "Heck-i-peck" are my current favourites.

Celebratory cup of latte for me please. Have just spent all yesterday & this morning trying to find somewhere to stay to visit my daughter & dp for granddaughters 1st birthday. Apparently its a weekend of festivals and things whichever direction from their home you go.. but finally think I have got a place so am going to book it right away.
Need extra large chocolate cake too...

I don't know what to do with myself today. For the last 3 1/2 years I've had Fridays off, having worked 4 x 10 hour shifts Mon - Thurs. Today is my last Friday off, cos from next week I have to work Mon - Fri. It's a bit of shock to the system. How do I make the momentous occasion of "my last ever friday off"? Ideas?

This is gonna sound like a really odd question - but has anyone heared that old joke about putting your credit card in the freezer? would that actually damage your card - and how on earth would it stop you using it? - as presumably you would have to put it in a water-tight container which you could just open really easily...
I am DETERMINED this month to hang on to every penny, so by next month I will finally be in my interest free overdraft - first step, dont spend any money till sunday when I will get £100 in cash for some work - then that will be my money for the rest of the month.
I just know that before Sunday I'm going to want to go and buy something! :rolleyes: so I thought maybe i could just freeze the card! (nb. its a debit card not a credit card - the credit card is in tiny pieces at the bottom of a garbage pile! heh heh heh!)
nb. there is no one around I can give my card too - my friends are not very spendthrifty, they would just give it back and convince me to go out to dinner! :rotfl:

Am making a large quantity of bread and butter pudding this evening - so at least i wont have an excuse to go out for snacks! (its my one eve off work tonight - there is nothing, like doing nothing, to make you feel hungry!)

nb. since im in the coffee shop can I have a double expresso, fair trade please and a cheese and roast pepper pannini! and some vanilla and strawberry sorbet cus its damned hot in London!
