Hello all!
Oh PRUFROCK, WHAT A MISSED OPPORTUNITY! thanks for reminding me, oh bugger, I've got a meeting with a bitch on a Tuesday and I forgot to use it, dammit!
For anyone who's wondering what I'm on about, I once had a woman who was v rude to a lovely member of my team and when said member said to me "AAAAGGGHH, how can I tell her to not be so rude to us?" I said "write back and say we'll discuss it at our meeting next week and end the email with 'See You Next Tuesday'" (geddit? C.U.N etc) - anyway, the woman most definitely did get the intended slight but couldn't very well say in the meeting "you called me a cnt" because we'd only have denied it. Although, very satisfyingly, she did say "I got an email reply that said "SEE YOU NEXT TUESDAY" thus letting us know that she knew we were calling her a cnt hahaha and I was able to say with a straight face, "yes, I sanctioned that because I absolitely thought this meeting was the right place to discuss it. My whole team were in on the joke and managed to keep a straight face during the meeting although we laughed our heads off when we came out and she'd gone off, looking very stroppy indeed. Thank you for reminding me!
Enid, glad you had a lovely evening. I am feeling happier today due to earlier night and emailing my diet buddy to vent.
Eemie, tell us about menopause/HRT if you're up to it, we're many of us headed in that direction, welcome. Mornington Crescent, hmm, maybe later, am at work atm.
lol at Sobernow's bee, lolol and hope your presentation goes well
dofN, now that's romance too, how lovely.
Iota, sorry your imprisonment is rubbish. Must be v boring
I like Moonshine's mantra too. Whenever I feel I look crap I remember what ex dh said to me not long ago "you're a middle aged woman, NO ONE'S looking at you" - awful but almost certainly true.
Foo, hope your hair is good
bundle hope drunkeness was enjoyable
