I'm at home, no jobs done.
Lip balm turned out to be tinted so he looked like a poorly drag artist. Must get some colourless stuff.
I WILL do a job in a minute.
This morning I had to rescue Bigorse from the orchard, silly twit.
I saw Exmoor AND Dartmoor ponies today. All on Dartmoor weirdly.6 -

I can be so boring about ponies, Exmoor ponies are of a type, brown and bigger - they have mealy noses, paler than the rest of them. Dartmoors are mostly smaller and a fairly wide variety of colours, much less uniform.savingholmes said:Hope you are okay. I didn't know there was a difference between the ponies...

Glad the opp went ok and chuckling about the lip balm.
Late to the conversation on resignations, but frankly I resign 'I resign and my last working day will be X' is all I need to know. 'So long and thanks for all the fish' is great for your manager but I hate it when I have to ask when you will actually finish. I always work on the basis that you may have to work with these people again, so if you can't say anything nice. ..My mortgage free diary: +++ Divide by Cucumber Error.

Thanks @apple_muncher and @redofromstart
I stuck with pretty much your suggestion, redo.
I looked at it in my outbox and it seemed to be missing sign off and signature. I definitely typed them. Weird. Well if it doesn't count they'll have to ask me to do it again.
Finish date is arranged.6 -
Is being up in the middle of the night normal for you, or is it just at the moment with all that is going on?
