Post!

Next Tuesday I shall wait a few minutes before I blip, I think you got a backlash yesterday. Sorry and thanks for your comments.

I'm away this weekend with the girls to celebrate a birthday - not mine. I have organised a chef to come and cook for us one night. The levels of excitement about this are rising rapidly and my nerves are frayed. Given the number of texts and e-mails this chef is sending he either believes me to be a very hot chick, or he is as nervous as me. It doesn't sound good. However, a few glasses of fizz and we shall be able to laugh!

At mum's house today she had a list of things for me to do. Show me how to use the slow cooker - was just a rouse for me to make her tea as she sat down and started reading her book whilst I was showing her!

'We' had a hamper to make for a local day centre who enjoyed Dad's company. Mum kept saying 'it will do' and 'I've had enough of this now have you not?' She had written her Christmas cards for far flung countries and needed stamps. At the post office the woman told her it would be 66p each card but that they only had 68p single stamps..... (mum didn't take the hint) ... or I can make up 66p but there will be an awful lot of licking involved. So for the sake of 40p saved, I had the pleasure of licking and sticking 5 stamps onto each of the 20 cards she had.

I am slowly melting a small square of plain chocolate on my tongue to dissolve the taste of gum!

On the way home I enjoyed this song. I hope you do.
