    Had a fab last day in my job. Loads of prezzies - Prosecco, pink gin, red wine, chocs, flowers, bath smellies, candle, room spray and £90 in gift vouchers. Not done too bad :) Had to get a taxi home as had too many presents to carry on the bus.

    Also got my lunch bought by my (ex) manager, just had to buy a bottle of Prosecco to share out.

    Will really miss them but looking forward to to my new job. Already been booked up every Tueday morning for the foreseeable future for note taking. Notetaking is my forte so well happy with this :)

    I'll be meeting up with my old team for lunches/drinks from time to time.

    Feel sad but happy if you know what I mean.

    Happy Sunday :)

    Sold the table and chairs on eBay just waiting for them to pick it up. Didn't sell the coffee table though, had only listed it for £10, have re-listed.

    A bit nervous about tomorrow but ok with it really. Had a bit of a what have I done moment this morning but I know I'll be fine.

    Got Wednesday off to meet retired friends for lunch.

    Weather has been hot and sunny all weekend here, fabulous :)

    Not booked the next holiday yet but probably will next weekend. Still favouring the hotel in Ibiza we went to last year.

    Hope everyone has had a great weekend :)

    Have finally caught up with your goings on SA. You sound like you had a fab send off from work and all the very best and good luck for tomorrow. The extra cash will be so useful and it's a good idea to start thinking of topping up your pension what with the advantageous tax breaks.

    Mr SA appears to be on form - love it that he moaned about how much you'd be spending re your leaving do (like you have one every week!)but still manages to make a plan on how to spend it for you!:rotfl:

    Hope you get to book your Ibiza hol this week- and good luck again for tomorrow!
