    Well the heating's still off ;)

    I'll let you know what I got a bollocking for last night by the boss. We had an elderly lady in who was lovely and took a shine to me. Anyway I offered to help her with her bag as the room was a bit of a distance away. When we got in the room she said she needed an extra heater (she was clad in God knows how many coats, plus gloves, scarf and hat). She asked for an extra duvet too, I could not find a heater for her. The only one had gone to a lady with young kids whose heating had broken in their room. I went back down to reception and my boss was there really angry because I'd gone to a hotel room without telling a manager that I was going in a certain room. He said "It's for your own safety, I didn't know where you were, you must keep safe" I tried to get through to him on the phone on two lines but no one answers as usual, whilst he's ranting I'm trying to get images in my head how an elderly lady can hurt me.

    I do my best not to invite them at all. Not one car had their fog lights on last night, so I didn't either. It's better than ice though. Snow's not too bad, fog's still better. When I drove before on the snow so many other cars seemed to be sliding when pulling off when we were in a traffic queue (you know it was stop-start). I was fine though and my stupid theory was that I have an automatic so I only have to take my foot off the brake to move forward, where-as probably 90% of people here have manual cars and they were accelerating to move.

    God I've just had to turn the heating off, I get so hot talking to you.

    That's not legal! oh and going into work I was followed for most of the journey by a police car, can I manage to stick to 40mph with him behind me? Of course I can't, I could any other time. I'm surprised he didn't stop me for erractic speeds. Of course I also worried about that prang last week. I really hate driving sometimes.

    The funny thing was when I started down the hill there were no cars about and halfway down I had one on my arse, I mean where did he come from? Do some cars/people have some kind of supersonic fog vision?

    Snuggles to you to.

    I'm back, what a night last night was, and then it took me ages to get home because of the fog. The girl I work with told me to go the main roads and don't even attempt Yalding hill as it's a small road. Well did I go the main roads? No. I went Yalding Hill because I assumed the fog would be better as it was higher and couldn't be worse than the low grounds by the river which the main road is and I don't know the bends of the road so well, also even in broad daylight I always miss my turning, so I had jack shit chance of getting it in the fog. I could see fuck all, I didn't know where I was meant to be turning for the bends. Luckily part of the hill has cats eyes and I could just about see one cats eye at a time in front of me. It was a slow journey, 15-20 mph on the hill, apart from me stopping on and off. I kept thinking, 'I wish Chris was driving'. Anyhow, at least my boss was OK with me in the end.

    Hello! I was just posting a message to you last night and when I went to submit it the forum was doing maintenance. Then everything got busy and I ended up getting a bollocking from my boss, all's OK though. As for the car.. not a sound, maybe it was a bit of grit off the road as they've had the gritters out every night for the last few weeks. I'm off shopping but won't be too long then I'm all yours.

    I posted you a message ages ago. WTF did it go? I see we have a new avatar, a family portrait. How sloooow is my phone tonight!
    rainbowberry
    I'll speak to you tomorrow otherwise, just off now. I'll let you know how my squeaky wheel is too.

    Hi Pumpkin, I've got to work later but as I said yesterday, if I get chance I'll get a message to you on here using my phone. Have a lovely day.
    rainbowberry
    That would be absolutely gorgeous, I love veggies and lean meat, I bet it would be white wine too, we'd have a lovely night.

    Goodnight big bear, I'll be with you tomorrow for a little while but I'll do my best to log in on my phone if it's quiet at work.

    You'll always have your favourites and that's the ones you'll name. I love beef but I wouldn't even know how to kill a cow, well I couldn't if it was called Daisy or Buttercup.

    Hey have you got anything nice for dinner tonight?
    rainbowberry
    But once they have a name you can't eat them. I mean if you call a goat Billy you can't eat him! Chicken's and Turkey's you can though, turkey's are just the ugliest birds ever, like a mini Ostrich.
    rainbowberry
    Yeah but it's nice and romantic for the first day of a very happy life. Oh goats would be nice too.

    Wow, we could grow chillis, spinach, cabbage, runner beans, lettuces, tomatoes, cucumbers, brussels, parsnip and carrots plus loads more. I'd have geese, ducks, cows, sheep (aw, little lambs), Reindeer, Caribou, Elks, and Mr Murphy could be the farm dog. Oh and horses called Rainbowberry, Pegasus, and Candy Cotton, I could go on forever. That would be a dream come true to be with you and all that. I even know the song I'd play when we first move in, the one I was listening to earlier.

    You're posting to yourself again baby. That sounds great though, can we have a pet moose too? I always wanted to buy a bit of woodland but never got round to it, I'd probably forget which woods I'd bought it in anyway as they all look the same.

    I save every pound/two pound coin I can. I wanted to buy one of those cheap money boxes that look like an empty tin of baked beans with a slot in the top and you need a can opener to get inside it. I couldn't find one this year but they have sold them everywhere for the last few years. I always have a few hundred in the bank though and £100-200 in cash about. I don't have to pay out for the mortgage as my Mum lives with us and pays that and there's not much left on it as I paid about around £40,000 from my savings in the first place towards the house.

    He'll only beat you at sports, God he'd love you. He did a fun run a while ago and all the other kids that beat him were 2 years older or more, he came 4th, that's including falling over and running around chatting to a girl in his class during the first half 'cos I remember he told me he said to her "Sorry I'll have to catch you later at the finishing line, as they're passing me now and I'm getting held up". He's like the Road Runner. I used to love sport at school, I'd have hated it though if I'd never won at it.

    How do you plan to save money BTW?
    rainbowberry
    What more money then last year? Oh know you meant resolutions. Nah I don't bother, what's the point when they'll only get broken the next day. Maybe I could cut down on drinking, actually forget about that, that's boring. I mean I don't need to lose any weight (lost if anything), and exercise, well, that's just not gonna happen.

    Connor has just got home in a good mood, he beat all the kids in his class at table tennis then played and beat the head of sports teacher 7-6.
