    well done red yaaaaaaay
    see nagging does pay, someone tell my oh
    i shall carry on nagging you til you tell me not to!
    nag nag nag-this is a nag for the future as it maybe a bit soon to follow it up, but if not follow away! xx
    I am not bossy I just have better ideas:p
  • Well done, group sessions eh? sounds good fun...hope you enjoy yourself.
    Another mean thought for workmates..have you had curried beans yet?

    A tad embarrassing but v.effective...
    Blackadder: Am I jumping the gun, Baldrick, or are the words 'I have a cunning plan' marching with ill-deserved confidence in the direction of this conversation?
    Still lurking around with a hope of some salvation:cool:

    Haha.. er, no, but considering the amount of lentil curry I've had lately... :o:rotfl:

    Heard back from the walking group people, going to go and join them on a walk when I get back from holiday, they mainly go Thursday evenings and Sunday daytimes so should be able to do one most weeks.

    Popped round to workmates after work for a coffee and chat, walked home,
    had chips and curry sauce for tea (shh don't tell Louise :o), and then watched a film that I'd rented, 'Buffalo 66' - really quirky little sort of love story, really touched me.. there's one bit where the main character, who's just got out of prison, stops playing the 'tough guy' and is being cuddled like a child.. so, hmm.. reminds me of someone I know, sometimes...

    Sitting watching Tribal Wives now, and looking at next door's roses in the not-quite-darkness... :)

    Err.. err.. yesterday. Got my new glasses yesterday morning so spent most of the day wandering about feeling like I was wearing goggles :cool: Weird how they take so much getting used to - felt a bit headachy and yuck by the time I got home so all I really did was have tea, have a bath and go to bed.

    Off out this afternoon with OH then meeting up with some friends later :) Exciting weekend of ironing clothes and packing for holiday ahead!

    How's everyone else? x

    Ooh house move is exciting though - hope it goes well, when do you move?

    I go on hols next Thursday night/ Friday morning - this time next week I should be in Rome :D :j

    Will be taking lots of photos but not sure if I'll be able to upload on the way, I'll take the cable that connects my camera phone though and see if I get a chance from internet cafe or the couple of days I'm at mate's house in Switzerland :)

    yeah it is and it isnt!
    i get an extra bedroom so we have a room to ourselves now as ds2 will also have his own room but
    im moving to new build at begining of august, some whove already moved in are having various problems though, showers/ovens not working, cracks up sides of house, sinking!
    they have put them up too fast i think
    im going housing association now so i know i wont have to rectify any problems but theyll still be a hassle
    im just preparing for the worst and it can only get better!
    ooh rome i would love to go italy, well i want to go everywhere!
