    Morning all! Nice and sunny here in Suffolk today! Have a mystery shop to do at lunchtime and also got some clothes to take to Oxfam in order to get my M & S voucher!

    Have a good day all!

  • Rotten day so far! Got as far as the door at work before realising I'd forgotten my pass which also has the keys to my locker and filing cabinets on it, so back home to pick those up before some wally decided to parp his horn at me as I wasn't willing to overtake a double parked van onto the path of oncoming traffic. Lost the head with him a bit, got out the car and gave him a rollicking before driving off fizzing mad. I'll overtake when save to do so, not when some stupid old fart in a hurry decides he wants me to go!

    An hour or so later and I'm just about calm but I think I need anger management classes!
    Almost debt-free, but certainly even with the Banks!

    This goes against what I just said about losing the lard before next Monday :o but I was going to make a cheese cake today for the next few nights pudding. It is something I never normally make but I have some ferrero rochers and I'm not too keen on them as I'm not into nuts so I was going to crush them into the base.

    Anyway, I bought the ingredients on Friday and just went to the fridge. Hmmmm, I thought, taking the tubs of cream cheese out of the fridge, these feel a bit light.........OH has eaten nearly a whole tub!!!! He did it whilst I was away on Saturday night!!!!

    I've just sent him a text to say I need to employ pest control as a bloody big mouse has eaten half the ingredients needed...:mad: ......I give up........:rolleyes:


    Not nice thing to do but why not put shaving cream in a tub and label it cream. It may just cure his inquisitivness :rotfl: . Reminds me of the time I put Mr Sheen under my arms instead of deodrant. My arms did move rather rapidly that day :rotfl:

    Morning all..... at work today, can't complain as had all of last week off apart from 2 hours on Monday as my DD was poorly. All back to normal now tho.

    Sun is shining here but it's chilly.

    Had a fab w/end tho, OH and I went on a bike ride, I had DD on the back of mine so I did the harder work...lol

    Afternoon everyone!

    It's kindof a nice day here in Leeds - sunny and warm (at least 1 foot away from the radiator at work it's warm)!

    Keren, you have my sympathies with your OH! I'd once put aside pasta bake to take to work for lunch the next day - got up the following morning to find he'd taken it for his lunch and as I had no money I was blooming hungry when I got home from work!
