Ooh, that is indeed exciting 😊😊 photos please when you do acquire a new resident 😊😊

You've reminded me I have both an electronic 💚 to shop voucher, and a part used book token! Gosh, I wonder how long I would have forgotten those for?! I'll add them to the list and deal with them this weekend.

That sounds like a really positive day.

I'm sorry to read that your boss made you feel -and have your work and pay- undervalued. Please wake up every morning and know that loads of random people all over the country think you're lovely and brilliant and are grateful for you 💐

And nice chocolate and magazines and potentially a new furry family member?! This sounds like an amazing Easter weekend!

Glad to be of service 😉😊

It deteriorated after that but I won’t share here as things are so uncertain. Going forward in hope.

A very good point.   You have helped me so much, @p@PennysIntoPounds is so right.    We may have never met in real life but you are absolutely awesome

I'm sorry the boss was a Plank. I'd appeal in writing as a grievance and say why you believe you deserve more.

Hope the rest of your weekend is better.

Steady there …. Keep going on like this and my head will swell so much I won’t be able to get through the door! 😉😂
Very kind of you 🙏😊❤️

He is a plank. A very rigid, rule driven one. He would make an excellent building material …. 🤔😉😂
No point with the grievance - I wouldn’t get anywhere with it. He is rigidly applying company rules 🤷‍♀️
I do have the satisfaction of knowing that he couldn’t find a way to take my bonus payment off me, which is 10% of salary, so way more than the annual salary review is worth … 😉

The rest of my weekend is being interesting …..
I’m down in North London, in an AirBNB, listening to planes hurtling overhead …. I was meant to be staying at my cousins but her MiL who’s just had a hip replaced is staying and to be fair, there is NO way she would have coped with the 4 steep sets of stairs here (I’m right at the top of the house in the roof!). 

It’s been interesting to see my cousin with her children - she is much more human in that context, far less controlled, very loving. She is a fantastic mother 😊
My car was dreadful on the way down - battling through London’s aggressive, crawling traffic with my engine behaving randomly and having to switch it off and back on again to ‘reset it’, was …. let’s say … ‘challenging to my Zen’ …. Decision made. Time to find a new car! 

Mr KK meanwhile, after finding two rare as hens gnashers, WW1, petrol cans (yes he collects those too …. 🙄😂) at a militaria show this morning, has been to see his mum and dad this afternoon and after dire reports of vomiting and horrendous pain yesterday, FiL appears to have overdone it with an eclair after barely eating for three weeks and is feeling much better today … 🤷‍♀️ Mr KK has instead been royally exploited by the neighbours of his mum, who are cat fosterers and now know we are in the market for a cat and have been sending pics and bios of possible candidates all day ….! 😂😂😂 Nigel and Nellie, 4 month old siblings, anyone ….? 😉
