Good work on that loss - So you're in a choir? I can't say my singing voice is up to much but one of my friends runs a choir and she adores it. She has a lovely voice too as I'm sure yours is. You do so much, such a busy girl
I like the sound of this chilli ketchup too, I like my spices and I've not really been using my syns enough so I'll have to try some.
That last shift you were one sounds like long hard work. I've been busy with work today too, am looking forward in one way to the exams coming up and giving me a break - it's so intense with the students just now but then I'll miss the money too. I need to get a proper job
Hope you have a great day tomorrow Hev, are you on shifts again?

Hey Red,
I don't feel like I do that much really! SW class on a Mon, choir on a Tues if I'm lucky with my requests (plus approx 4 concerts per yr), 2-4 12.5 hr shifts a week (its actually 6 per fortnight-69 hr fortnight, strange system I know!). Then there's organising cottage stuff/the bookings and payments side of it- I do little with the changeovers now as I have a lovely lady who does that! And I don't have any kiddlywinks, so to be fair I have a fair bit of 'me time'! I'm busy, but I think Ive got a nice balance! You, however sound mega busy! I take my hat off to anyone who has kids AND works!
The hot chilli ketchup is from Aldi (brandname Bramwells)- I love it, but I think Heinz do one too- needless to say more pricey!
Yeah I'm night shifts tomorrow and Fri, then another long day like today on Sunday!
Got anything nice lined up for the weekend?X

Enjoy the night shifts Hevs. You probably won't hear much from me after this morning as we are heading back up the motorway in a couple of hours. We're off to Liverpool tomorrow to get himself a new passport, at my mums on Saturday (dongle didn't work there last time I tried, but you never know) and Ian's 70th party on Sunday. And then back home late on Monday.
I'll try to get on for the odd few minutes but don't expect to hear much now until Tuesday.

Happy Thursday!! Yeh tis a long shift but the way I see it is that once I'm there I'm there- it's a 40 mile round trip to go to work so I have less journeys and more days off! The normal morning shift finishes at 3pm, so what's a few more hours once I'm there?! Have a fab day!!XXXX

Work food- Salmon fillet cooked in steambag with Caribbean curry spice mix with bulgar wheat and salad (see yest). Notice anything?!! Exactly the same as earlier! Had salmon fillets in fridge to use up and not much preperation time between night shifts so made sense to split into two meals!! All good stuff though! Activia fat free raspberry Snackpot.
Milk in cups of tea and coffee (part HEXa). No HEXb- whoops!
No syns! How did that happen?!
