22nd May 1979

Monday 22
Boring day at college
It rained & rained & rained

Came home at 1.30 (hardly a full 'boring day at college'!!)

Did some Sociology

Fi was at a school in Leyland.

Sam phoned

He had been to Dudley again & sounded tired
Can't wait to see him on Sunday


Thursday 22 2008
Got up at 6.30 (hit snooze too many times!)
Had a shower and washed hair

Got dressed, dried hair, walked the pup
Woke teen

Made breakfast
(crumpets and la vache qui rit cheese, sounds so much better than 'Laughing Cow' it is always referred to as 'la vache' cheese in our house)
Straighten hair put on makeup

Made Teen's sandwiches

Kicked Teen and mate out to school

Got 8.45 train to work

Meeting 9.30 - 12.30
(one of those meetings where you have no knowledge of what is about to be discussed so have to listen to everything that is said... great view of Manchester out of the window 16 floors up btw lol)
Back to office

13.00 out to lunch

met Sam
Coffee in Carluccio's (Sandwiches were served at the meeting so wasn't hungry) Had a good old natter (family, mutual old friends etc amazed his gran that he visited in Manchester is still with us aged 91. We laughed about this blog and I told him there was worse to come lol)
14.15 back to office
Sam off to Hastings
Left office at 17.30
17.45 train late as per usual.

Home and back out to Tesco
1 hour and £80 later got back home

Cooked a Chinese sir fry for tea (organic chicken, mange tout, baby sweetcorn, bean sprouts, mushrooms in an oyster sauce with ginger and egg fried rice.. all from raw ingredients of course)
Phoned Mum
Chatted to Annie on e mail .. trying to persuade her to make a blog (the gif image doesn't work here .. it should have Cliff's face popping up over the sign)

Visited loads of blogs that I have neglected to do of late (may not have commented on some but have popped along for read)

Wrote this !!

If you defined the 'gif' as a 'gif' We might see the pic of Cliff
If you don't
Then we wont
My advice for you, a free gift

I don't too much to say, other than YES it is very nice to wave the magic Delete Comment wand every once in a while.

Also, I finally figured out how to get my display name to change on this thing (sadly took a while to find the right setting).

And, of course, glad you're back in the saddle again.

Hi Rev~ yes the 'magic finger of delete' is such a satisfying tool to have. You certainly have had some mad comments from half wits.
