Its May Bank Holiday weekend in England:j

According to a recent survey it is also known as May Bonkholiday as apparantly it's the time of year when couples are at their *FRISKIEST* (as discussed yesterday, they dont have this holiday in Scotland):rolleyes:

Hope everyone has a good Bank/bonk holiday weekend:j

I am at my nieces 2nd birthday party and out for an Indian Meal tonight with OH, shhhh dont tell the SW thread:o .

Have a good one everyone:j
But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.

    Hope everyone has a great day. No doubt there will be no salad later in the shops as the weather is nice and the skies will be darkned by the smoke of burnt,uncooked sausages :rotfl: :rotfl:

    morning all! The washing is on the line and apparently it's going to be wonderful here today.

    Bit pooped - went to bed at 1 after OH said he would be ok getting home and was woken by him going 'helllooo' at 2.45am!!

    He then spent a good 5 minutes trying to get a packet of flour tortillas open and failed miserably, threw up and fell asleep on the sofa with all the lights on and the TV chatting away to itself merrily.......

    Guess I need to start AQA'ing although I'm still tired after my mammoth haul last night!

    See you all fifteen miles and several hours later! x

    Morning all
    Ive still got terrible sinusitus, in fact today is the worst it has been. Spoke to the Dr's yesterday and she said that unless I had a fever with it she didn't want to give me antibiotics...grrrrr.
    Sun was out earlier here but its looking a bit cloudy. Off to the farmers market in a bit, hoping to get a few bits.
    Had to laugh at your lovely man keren..why are they soooo noisy! Hope the AQA doesn't take up too much of your bank holiday weekend
    I'll make a wish, take a chance, make a change And breakaway. I'll take a risk, take a chance, make a change and breakaway ....
    Finally Debt Free...

    oooh, I know how you feel with the sinusitis sally - my hayfever is rampant in the mornings now and it affects my sinuses the most. I buy the Asda own brand decongestant - only 80-odd pence for a box of 16 rather than the extortionate price of sudafed. I managed to get a very, very cheap haul of generic loretadine for my hayfever at the end of last summer which I stashed away so it should be an MSE-style defence against it!!

    I'll be AQA'ing today and tomorrow all day other than a walk with the dog. Monday I'm going to do the 2 short assignments for my teaching course - there is no session with it being a bank holiday so I'll do them then.

    Good morning all and happy bank holiday. Hoping to get some washing dried on the line today and maybe get out in the garden over the weekend. Also going to try and make some hobnobs and bake some bread.

    Have a good day everyone.

    Morning everyone - overcast and windy here but sneaky bits of blue sky so hopefully will brighten up later.

    I'm doing overtime tomorrow but off on Monday so not too bad.

    My OU welcome stuff came this morning so will have a nosey through that and then attempt some housework.

    OH working all weekend so definately just a Bank Holiday for me too! x x

    God, I'm pooped. My eyes feel so heavy - but I worked late last night, went to bed at 1 and was woken just before 3, so I'm not surprised!

    Done £20 on AQA this morning, that'll do for now.

  • Grr...my post just died...sodding internet.

    Overcast with a slight breeze here, got some washing out so I hope it doesn't rain.

    Need to do some AQA and study today before I see the sexy one tonight...it might turn into a bonk holiday after all.
