    Afternoon all, just got back in from my youngest's cricket tournament I have burnt my forehead lol

    I've had enough of my job lol, people making me jump through hoops dates given in for docs appointments etc all ignored and then no one to change shifts with. I'm meant to be in for my 1st shift on hospital ward thurs and work have said no. Everytime I want a day off to do something else even though I can work the rest of the week and give them plenty of notice they always say no and ignore it. My days there are numbered I think, I've never been a quitter but somethings got to give...!!!8230;!!!8230;..




    welcome to working for a large retailer,it gets much worse.:(.so happy to be out of it.:)

    A guess but sounds like you are in a beautiful part of the world. Guess is Thailand but maybe Malaysia. BA assistance is very good, did they give you a medical bulk head seat as well? I find virgin as very good as well.

    Hi all back after my little jaunts around the world. Antigua with N was lush and lovely to see it at a different time of the year. Bless her hubby for sleeping on the sofa for a week. Then half term in gran can aria with dd and dgd. Dd had booked a really superb hotel somewhere I will definately go again. Dgd had a whale of a time and even swam with sea lions which she loved. Weather seems to be hotting up a bit here just hoping for a long summer this year.
    Jauntily off Thursday to look after youngest dgd for a few days. Its all go.

    Intrigued by T'S horse sitting!!
    Not a clue on glitches but will back to reading daily again.

    Malaysia :D.

    Yes had bulkhead so more room for oxygen tanks

    Today felt more like on hols. Relaxing by pool with dd and ds and their partners at the air b n b they are staying. Haven!!!8217;t been swimming since about 7 years ago when I got Tessa. Gave me a good workout.
    Need to work out how to put a pix here to add to the holiday photos but only got iPhone with me. Normally use laptop at home
    Eta. Ah managed it :D
