    Good Afternoon All

    So yes it's a happy day in the Bob house. I pushed the boat out and bought DH a fancy brownie. He's got that to look forward to later :)

    Wealth

    * Today has been another of those days. An enquiry turned up this afternoon for 1 days filming work, including catering for the crew budget, £1500. Now what am I supposed to make of that? My hard headed side tells me I might be better served replying to emails that promise me a fortune if only I send my bank details to a Nigerian prince.....But as ever dear reader I shall put my optimistic hat on and think it might happen :)

    * £75 paid into the business account overnight. Balance is looking quite decent for once.

    * My accountant wants me to go over next week and sign off my accounts. Eek big bill....

    Health

    * Quite a lot of walking today as did an hour's round trip first thing, then the long school run walk too. Sadly the health of my daughter's pink and purple ring tailed Lemer (Roxie) is not as good as it could be. Roxie, and indeed Mouse were both treated to a bath in a muddy puddle half way along the South Circular. I'm not sure if my daughter was trying to reinact the final scenes of Roxie's more familiar namesake from Stenders but the shrieking when I tried to throw both foul objects into the washing machine was terrible to behold. Send wine.

    Organisation

    * Walked to the business premises this morning to take care of a quick errand. Walked back. We only got rained on a tiny bit.

    * Today is a use it up day before I buy any fresh foods again. Spaghetti with carrots, onions, bacon and cheese for dinner.

    * Both sets of banking checked and all as I'd expect.

    Bob

    Aww happy anniversary Bob, we have 2 anniversaries too as we were together for 10 years before we got married. Our first is in January & second in June (the official wedding anniversary).

    Fingers crossed for the filming work. :)
