good morning monday

Debih - a good school governor should make sure that Ofsted inspectors are attacked by a mob of sturdy villagers armed with pitchforks and staves!
A beautiful day here too, there is grass to be cut and washing to hang out.

Morning all, lovely sunny day here. Lots of bits and bobs to do today, but hope to get into the garden for a while too.
Happy birthday to the birthday peeps today!
Have a good day everyone xxx

Morning all
Beautiful here too, and isn't it lovely to know we have a whole week of it

Washing's out, h-word to do, garden pottering to do. Bb's out working but is local later so will be here for lunch. Bit of a disaster as the battery on the scales has died and on these fast days ever gram counts so I hope he remembers to get one
Last night's barbeque was a real treat in the end, thanks to Tesco reducing a pack of lamb steaks to 74p
Barbequed lamb is definitely one of my favourite foods in the whole world

Happy birthdays to Ally's son and Lissi's granddaughter, have a good trip Ton, and everyone enjoy the lovely day

Afternoon everybody.
Had a power cut this morning. Looked at clock just before six a.m and no problem. Next time I looked there was a blank screen. So got up and rang Electric Northwest, who are the company responsible for the distribution system. Got a recorded message to say that the fault was being repaired and the power should be on by 9.30 a.m. Then got a phone call asking if we had any problems with the power being dis-connected. It was restored an hour later. Over 2000 houses were affected.
Been shopping. Had to wait nearly half an hour for a bus back home. Normally they are every 10 minutes.
Debih, Does James like his new home and is he behaving correctly?

evening

Work (placement) for me today, bit gutted as I missed Amy's sports day, 1st time I have missed anything like that - but my mum went and got a photo to show me, and we have both survived me not being there! lol lol

Popped to a card shop after work without Amy and got her a huge badge to wear for her birthday next week and then checked the job website and my dream job is being advertised so I have applied - already applied for about 6 other jobs, but this one, I really want - wish me luck! (doubt il get it but got to try)

Amy is going on her school trip tomorrow, to a Castle so is very excited!

Happy Birthday to all those celebrating today

Oh yes, loads of luck Poll!!!!! {{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{Good luck}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}

Di I saw the piccy of your lamb steaks and salad on FB, they looked wonderful

Cruiser, glad you got your power back

Well I've had a nice day, walking to town and the Docks, doing a bit of food shopping then walking home - hopefully walking off the naughty-but-nice pannini I had for my lunch When I got home Mick knocked off work early so we sat in the garden chatting for a bit - he's working this evening though, doing some proxy changes or something

My washing machine has finally given up the ghost - it is leaking badly again and this time Mick can't fix it, plus the rubber door lining is rotting away - but I've ordered a new Beko for delivery on Wednesday so that's ok...............Oh and I've sorted my regular days for my new job - Tuesdays and Thursdays which is ideal for me!

thanks Kaz xxxx think I will say an extra prayer for this one xxxxx

Good luck Poll

It was yummy Kaz
Do you remember that £25 Argos gift card I got from buying the fridge/freezer? I still have it, so we decided to treat ourselves to a decent barbeque. Bb's collecting this one on Friday:

Last year I said I'd like one but we didn't get the weather, I think we only had one barbeque! The one we have is very small and basic, and the weekend reminded us we need a lot more food now for those boys
I didn't want a very big one as usually it would still be just for us, but am looking forward to having one with a lid

Shame about the washing machine, I remember when I said ours was playing up you said the same then. Good thing it's coming so quickly, especially with this lovely drying weather
