    ooooooooooh, hope you have purple hair by now jacs!!!

    I'm back from work, dog walked, lunch by my side.

    I was asked what extra hours I would like to do up until the end of the month as we have Ofsted coming in on 2 June, so I'm going to do 7.5 hours next week over 3 afternoons and the same the following week. I get a slightly enhanced rate and i've worked out it will be about £130 less NI and tax. Worth doing - I wouldn't be able to earn that much on AQA at those times. I could have done a few more hours but I was happy with choosing that many.

    Went to pick up the sofabed I bought off ebay. It was at a second floor flat:eek: :eek: but as the frame is wood, it came apart. Let's hope it goes back together again next week when the carpet goes down!!! OH is re-painting 1 wall tonight, but other than that it's all done :D although the house looks even more like Steptoe's yard now with a sofabed in pieces plus the mattress strewn around the house amongst everything that came out of the room :rolleyes:
    :D"Stay Wonky":D

    I prefer jaffa cakes - only 1g fat per 'cake' and they're so lovely and orangey they must count as one of your 5 a day!

    Bourbons are so dunkable. I'm terrible with food. It's like I'm taking part in an eating contest every day of my life.:p

    Afternoon all, are you all obsessed with chocolate? Crumbs i am off before the cravings start, bad enough mentioning bread and jam yesterday!
    Hope everyone is well.
