Yup!! I accidentally drove into my boat on the drive this morning, left a hole in the wheel arch. Fell out with stupid husband. Got the train to city for work only to realise I was in a different city (the one I set off from) and had to get the train back. Lost 20 odd quid on train and parking I can't claim back now!! It was shite.

Hope your day improved

Yes! Too much work to do and not enough members of staff in. To kick the day off, two machinery-based issues, then inconsiderate people, and a never-ending stream of, "Oh, and can you do this job as well?"

Thankfully, I did not have to deal with my interfering manager at all (he is extremely hard work), and everything perked up this afternoon.

I hope that the rest of the week improves for us all!

Went on a day trip to a meeting in London. Bought myself a treat at fortnum and mason at the station. Left it on the train 🙁

Sorry, I had a great day so I can't join in. I found a treat from Fortnum and Mason on my train. It was delicious.

Found a massive spider in the show box. Met a lovely lady. Mixed day.

Although sorry youve got a hole in it, and that your day just went wrong. Same here, just one thing after another going wrong 🙃🙃 or things just taking forever

Whats a show box?

I found a dead moth in the shower the other day, I think dcat killed it and left it there. Was gross 🤢

At least you met someone nice. The guys who glued my wing mirror back on for me, for free!, were nice, I must say, so not all bad

Although will see if the glue holds 🥺🥺 x

It's only a fairly small dingy but I love it!! Although not when it crashes into my car 🤣🤣

We've kind of ignored the issue!! He is away now for a few days so all will be forgotten.

Glad you got sorted
