Weird laughalot

Some of my neighbours blank me half the time and other times are really friendly when they want something

Some people are just weird.

I have the Radio Times Christmas issue in my possession Grin and a cheap 'daddy' card. Me and O are buying JFG a toy that he loved in Hamleys for Christmas.

Envy of the day of circling ahead chasing

Have popped the ad for the house on FB.

Thanks all. I built a new bedroom. Well not the walls but furnitures. Now I have a double bed, bedside table, chest of drawers and also a work table as I don't want to put that anywhere else.

I just received my last payslip and p45. Can someone tell me if they need to pay me for the bank holidays accured while on maternity leave. The pay slip is just for basic pay, aca 4 weeks of holiday (contract said 20 days plus bank hol). Thanks

Sorry lily I have no idea. I would have thought so though?

QQ how do I cook/defrost soup that is frozen in a plastic tub?

ditsygal · 07/12/2013 14:11

Can you all keep me sane while n is with P. The lawer stuff is here for me to read, but I'm so stuffed full of cold I can't concentrate.

I just want to go over there and get my son back.

Hand holding from here Evil. I am missing my boy like crazy. It gets easier though, I promise.

Christmas shopping done. Tree up. Tinsel strewn around the flat. Muppets Christmas Carol watched. Now sitting with the Christmas Radio Times, a cup of green tea and Harry Potter Smile

Evilwater · 07/12/2013 15:47

I am tossing wheather to do the Xmas tree.

Lily it depends on the employers policy. The NHS for example accrue PH as holidays, but only north of the border. Go figure. Did you go back to work after mat leave? If not then I am actually amazed you qualify for Mat pay as all companies I know of will not pay out if you do not intend to return, and if you change your mind they ask for the money back.

Oh Christamas tree, Oh Christmas tree, I got you from the forest, free!

Varya · 07/12/2013 16:32

Christmas Tree!

ValiumQueen · 07/12/2013 16:34

Evil I would do the tree while N is out.

What did you buy Chasing?

My SS has arrived Grin very very excited. Best finish mine and post it.

Need to apply for my new job this weekend. Closing date 13th but best to get it in sooner rather than later. Mostly the same as last time, and add in my CBT training and all the high powered working groups I am now a part of. Had an email the other day that had the names of people so high up I have never met them, and little old me at the end. And I had a mention as being a valuable asset. Get me! Grin

ValiumQueen · 07/12/2013 16:35

Varya are you a name change or newbie? Either way who the feck are ye? Grin

Evilwater · 07/12/2013 16:36

25 mins to go, I'll do the Xmas tree when he has gone to bed.
