Not bad ta Bob, have just submitted a suitable (I hope) amount of waffle for the council job, have a bit more waffle to do this afternoon. Raining here so haven't done my lunchtime stuff apart from pay my rent...

Don't forget if it is two pages long and full of jargon, you are on a winner.......

:rotfl: It is - fingers crossed!

Forgot to mention earlier, I passed a shop earlier which runs a book club once a month, might pop along to that, next one is in a few weeks time.

Well there you go, you never know, may find a book on how to beat the jargon blues!

That would be handy!

Really struggled to get going at work today, left early and went shopping instead of going for a run Didn't spend loads though, a few essential toiletries and some slightly less essential clothes.. only spent £17 altogether, including a dress which I had seen before and really liked which was reduced to £2.. though to be honest now I've got it home I'm not entirely sure it suits me :rolleyes: Oh and I spoke to a nice 'say gouranga' monk blokey who said I was a "lovely smiley lady".. but then he was after money :rotfl:

Right, where's me list..
-put together month end reports at work - no, not really
-try to finish application form - done
- go into town at lunchtime to pay rent - done
-pay some cheques into the bank - nope
-buy hair dye - done
-check out that poster in the library again - nope... tomorrow
-go for a run this evening - errr no
-change sheets etc on bed - not yet
-do some washing - done
-dye hair - later
-attack giant eyebrows with tweezers - done

So a mixed day there, nothing that can't wait till tomorrow though. Found a salsa class on Tuesday nights so that could be next week's mission, really wish I could find someone to come with me though... but must be brave!

I would love to come with you but I live in London, honey you will be fine.

Move to london and you have yourself a ready made partner in crime.

Not that I know of. These classes are in a bar/ club sort of place so I may go in a bit earlier and suss out what it's like.. or just peer through the windows looking really daft :rotfl:

Poor, well, if I ever decide for a complete new start... not sure I could live in London to be honest, love the place for a visit though. There does seem to be a lot of people on here that have similar interests, or want to try out similar things, shame we all seem to be at a distance from each other!

Hair dyed (and assorted bits of the bathroom).. not sure on list for tomorrow.. need to pick up parcel from PO in the morning, do other job application... will think about the rest overnight... zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz xx

Morning all! Just a short list today I think...
-pick up parcel from PO - done (lovely DHC facewash etc for my holidays, I love these people, they send lots of free samples )
- do other job application(s) - not 100% sure about one of these so need to have a good read through the description
- pop into library on way home for leaflets etc (if I leave work early enough)
- go for a run
- change sheets on bed and tidy bedroom

Need to have a think about what to do at the weekend, meeting up with some friends on Sunday but nothing planned for Fri night or Saturday yet.

Isn't it horrible when you can't find someone to go with to a class, cos you're quiet/shy in the first place? Thats me too. I'd go with you if you were in my town! Hope you manage to get there - and the job apps sound interesting too.
