Crepeys do Christmas...

[oldqueenie]

Will this fit the bill. Dull but seasonal?

Ooh ruby, has he packed it in, or is training on another night?

Gwaaann, name a date. Or two!

Yippee! Both good for me

Just done my first circuit training session for 2.5 weeks. Not quite as bad as I thought it might be, but I might have changed my tune by tomorrow.
Am juggling my 2 jobs for this month and it's all threatening to get a bit complicated. I have terrible trouble remembering what I'm supposed to be doing when, because it all keeps bloody changing and my memory no longer seems to be as, er, sprightly as it used to be. If I forget to write anything in my diary, I don't remember it AT ALL. Bah, hopeless. Have just remember I have not done anything about ds's b-day party and it's his birthday in less than 2 weeks. He wants a laser shooting party. Or something soothing and friendly like that.

I might be able to make a meet-up in Feb, but can't quite commit at this stage.

I'm more likely to be able to make Feb 8th, if I can come..

oooh. I'd like to try to come this time (if that's ok?).... Can possibly do 8th, can't do 1st.

No half-term here until Feb 15th.

Half-term is the 15th here too.

Would be great to meet you OQ. And see you strops and ruby. And EVERYONE ELSE!

Our February half term is in March...

Our Easter holiday is in May.

You will get all the cheap deals
Is yours decale, MrsS? (is that the right word for when they stagger the French half-terms?)

Ooh, just checked out the French half-term dates and it looks like we might have a reasonably quiet skiing hol as they are not off that week and it is a resort popular with locals!

I can do 1st or 8th for meetup, although Saturdays are marginally better for me, as it means I can go shopping beforehand DH doesn't have to rush home early.

Herbs - I have a Tupperware drawer too. And an appliance cupboard.

I add loving the drawer envy. I have a solid (old) handmade lichen with loads of storage, unfortunately due to the way the house is built they also suffer from being against the outside wall - plates feel like they have come out of an ice box.

Thanks all for the support. Just all part of my massive midlife crisis and 'this is not the life I thought I'd have' really, combined with tough times relationship wise.

Anyway in other stuff, I went singing last night (now as someone who believes themselves to be tone deaf this is something of a feat!)

Amazon are tempting me with regards to the boots I like by dropping the price (only by a couple of quid) every couple of days...

Dates - 1st is probably better for me, but only because I am already in London that day.
MrsS how's about you? Any news on interview date?

Lichen?! Kitchen

I can do the 8th! As long as DP is around, that is.

CV - have a cupboard with the food processor and juicer in. Does that count as an appliance cupboard? Or are yours pre-plugged in?

Builder supposedly coming this morning to fix poohy whiff, and other issues. We shall see.

Aaargh, was about to post yes, yes to the 8th when I found that it's the one date in Feb I can't do as it's school quiz night and I have already signed up. I can do 1st or either Saturday those weekends...

BD - our wardrobes are like your kichen cupboard, against an outside wall so everything comes out chilled. Nice at this time of year. Not. Have started putting clothes on the radiator overnight, which takes me back to my freezing childhood.

We have a wine-rack which is built into an alove in the old chimney breast. You don't need to bother putting the white wine in the fridge; it comes off the rack ready-chilled. You do have the stand the red on a radiator for half an hour before you drink it though.
