Not my day....

[EcclesCake]

I woke up at six this morning with a streaming nose and feeling lousy so I crawled back under the duvet. Get woken up at 09.30 and tried very hard to sound bright and sparkly when talking to client. The phone continued to go non-stop until 11.30 since then I've enjoyed a quiet day gently getting on with my work.

Can't be bothered going to too much bother for my supper tonight so thought I'd cook some beetroot for a salad later. Once I started slipping the skins off the phone range three times and the doorbell went once. I have spent the last half an hour trying to work out just how far around the house I have spread beetroot juice.....

On a more positive note I now have a rather fetching white t-shirt with purple spots!

I might have a toddy with my beetroot salad :-(

[Psybbo]

Barmaid, when do you return stepson?

[thenry]

There's a whole lot of that sniffing stuff going about now Eccles. You get yourself a big toddy and get back under the duvet and sweat the whole thing out !

[Barmaid]

Tomorrow morning, Sibton. Mad dash to school followed by mad dash to catch the 9.45 to edinburgh and hopefully catch the wake. (Typical me, I turn up for the bun fight!!!!)

[Psybbo]

Well done. barmaid, I remember well what it was like

[mccfluff]

You gave eccles my handcuffs? How very dare you...

[ttfn]

£40 on the night stand, Eccles?

I wish

thudddddddddddd

[EcclesCake]

Please, give me a break I have a rotten cold, head full of cotton wool and I'm being strung up for S-D's conduct.......

TBH mccluff I am not comfortable with the cuffs being re-used. A gentleman would use a new set each time...it was quite distasteful finding sticky clumps of errr..fluff.....

TTFN, I'm sorry you fell for his underhand tricks, S-D is a demon 'negotiator'!!!

[Psybbo]

eccles, purple is my favourite colour, and I have just disowned sunny dave

[nungate]

I think you ought to have a nice hot toddy Eccles, you deserve a wee treat!

Barmaid, if you're planning to take the Train to Edinburgh tomorrow you should check they are actually running as I did hear there was trouble on the East Coast Line because of this bad weather - would you consider flying as an option?

[ttfn]

Eccles, please remember that my 'negotiator' is Moony.

I would be lucky to get 4 drachma :(((

[Psybbo]

ttfn, moonie is adorable, I so envy you

[ttfn]

sibbers - may I wish you feel better, very soon x

[ttfn]

Eccles - I wish you better, too :) x

[moonraker558]

Adorable? Are you taking notes TT? looks like you have competition. I just might go and change and perhaps a trim.

[askyourgran]

Eccles hope you feel better tomorrow. I have had a naff day too. Went into the garden shed and found the roof is leaking, rainwater on all surfaces, and a handy paint tray full of water. I'll wait until it stops raining before I chuck everything on to the lawn. I have boiled beetroot too, half of it daubed on my t-shirt, I shall expect pink pee tomorrow as I ran out of jars when I pickled it, so I ate the rest. yum. Otherwise I wish I was somewhere hot, my BIL is back from Cyprus and he is boasting about how beautiful the hotel was and hot the weather.
