    Morning everyone,

    Sorry about the headache Z. I'm pretty busy writing some drum parts for a new album for a band I've been working with they are my tip for the top of 2008, well I hope so anyway because they are sweethearts.

    other than that not much is happening here, need to brave tesco :( be domestic and clean the windows, do some washing and sort out the office. All fun stuff.

    That's what I think I deserve right now - tea and sympathy. Of course hot and cold running chambermaids wouldn't go amiss either...

    See you're multi-talented and lovely on top. Just glad you're nowhere near me - can't stand noise at the moment. Typing on a laptop keyboard right now...and it's LOUD...

    It's not - and I'm not a headachey sort of person.

    Never mind - I'm sure it'll pass. Hopefully quicker than this cold which is coming up for 2 months now...

    .....went to sheltered accommodation etc and did demonstrations on how to make and decorate the chocolates and then sold them to the residents....

    That's a good plan, do you have BUPA & other private care homes down your way? We have loads of these "retirement apartment" blocks here - they may be a good place to try too, we have some McCarthy & Stone and Churchill complexes locally.

  • I just met up with an old friend through facebook too. I'm happily married now, and never had those kinds of feelings for this lad, but we were really good friends at college. He came over at the weekend and me, hubby and friend all hit the town and had a great time. Hubby and friend got on really well too.

    Hope it goes well!
