Hiya Everyone!!
Just a quick posting as tonight is quiz night!! First a little chit chat between friends :-) I've noticed that I don't appear to be receiving any alerts for comments - well maybe one or two!! It's quite disappointing as I think no-ones reading 
I shall have to go and investigate the here to help journal and see if there's any pearls of wisdom over there!
Did you see that rain today? I couldn't believe it!! You know how I walked home yesterday, well it started belting down when I left this morning so I resign myself to having to catch the bus and I get more soaked walking from my flat to the bus stop, than I did walking home last night!! I walked home again tonight and didn't get very wet at all!! I hate catching the bus to work especially when it's raining. Firstly I don't get there till about 9.15am, if I was walking I'd be there by 8.45am. Secondly the money aspect, and thirdly there's those people that say 'oh it's busy but only coz it's raining' grrrrrrrr.........it's not our fault it's raining!! We don't really want to catch your precious bus and if we had a choice we wouldn't!! I was thinking about purchasing one of those golfing umbrellas, mainly coz when I reached the bus stop it died off a bit double grrrrrrrrrrrr.............lol
Had a good day at work - brain was working LOL.......managed to balance accounts that I wouldn't have done about a month ago ;-) Learning all the time see..........Team day tomorrow and team leader and I will be lucky if we make it there!! Lady we're supposed to catching a lift from is not feeling well and went to the docs today!! She doesn't have team leaders phone number so we could be waiting for ages for someone whose not turning up LOL.........Anyway I shall probably post on Friday to let you know how it went :-) Bet you can't wait for that one.............

Well done for balancing those accounts - our Jen's obviously going places now! If you can walk to work, then just get a good brolly for wet days - and some wellies - to hell with the bus. That little face with the wobbly mouth does make me laugh - lol!
