Pink Fairy, say well done to your man in green from me. You must be v. proud - and rightly so!

Dusty, it was me, not Mudbath who was commanding ORF. Have just been next door for an hour or so and chewed the fat with nice neighbour over a couple or so v. large g&ts. ~hic~ which will explain why I may be slightly less coherent than usual. We were discussing ORF and got to wondering whether the gardener which we share has changed his car .

He visits on a Thursday (does next door first, then me) though whenever I see him he's on his bike. But, I shall pursue this line of enquiry tomorrow when I'm less gin'd up and phone and ask what car is he driving now (it never used to be a red fiat). If it is a red fiat, then mystery solved. If it's not, then Plan B DEFINITELY will happen.

So the mystery of the red Fiat may be solved..
No Flying done here..again. Oh well, catch up on Saturday morning then.

I've no missions to be on, no rants, must be doing something right. (Or not doing much)
No other applicants for my job so I'm just waiting for the letter to see if it's going to be mine. Holding my breath 'til then.
Torchwood boast (yes Pinkfairy, envious of your pal being on set) Apparently I was introduced to the alien from this week's episode at a party on Boxing Day. I was too busy dancing to remember.

Evening everyone.

Not much flying done today. I went to see mum and she was a bit confused as they have changed things around in the home. Diningroom is now small lounge and large lounge now diningroom. Have seen a difference in her the past week. Not weight bearing as well and sometimes doesnt know its me which is hard. But she is very happy in her self. Then went to do my vol job and while there visited a couple of friends who are in hosp.

Cant remember who mentioned Reiki but Im a Reiki 2. Funnily enough I havent done any for a while but was asked to do some for a friend today.

Will get some flying done over the weekend as Im not back to work till Tuesday. Take care everyone.

Hello all

Very little done today, Sis and family popped in again, but I have introduced her to this site and printed off a copy of this weeks list. She's getting frustrated with her disorganised house, so I've been telling her about the joys of hotspots, HHC's and fling boogies(still havent done one of those myself:o )!! She did say she'd noticed my house was tidier:j I must be doing something right!!

Pink Fairy smashing pics you must be so proud

I'll join all you ladies in a glass of something white and chilled and Pigpen I only have milk with cornflakes. One problem-Ihave broken all of my nice large glasses, am reduced to using a very old crystal one which holds about half a mouthful, I need one of those ones that hold a whole bottle:rotfl:
