Default Not going to be about much

Finally cleared the last out of our house last night.
Bit emotional, after 14 years there.
Once all the furniture had gone, had all the carpetssteamed cleaned (very caring me), the lights went out for the last time..........

My 2 boys are a `bit strange` at the moment.........but they too are feeling a bit emotional.


Last day at work today....been a civil servant now since 1981, and have risen to the grand ole rank of Executive Officer
Quite how I made it, I dont know!!!!!

Moved into `bedsit land` Southsea last night. Living next door to Tescos is fine.............until it is 6 am in the morning and the deliveries are being made, with a bloody 20ft lorry reversing, making that very annoying `reverse` noise!!!!!!!!!!!

Wont be able to `post` much now (shit, think I will get withdrawal symptoms) so to all my mates...............All the bloody best.

Pompey Birds.............Ring me and let me know about next week!!!!

Finally...........`Wheres my bloody visa?`

Take good care.............a million thanks for your help, guidance, support and cyber love and hugs.

Rach............hope your party goes well, dont get pissed and DONT bawl all night.


Lots and lots of love

Sandra, who will be signing off at about 12 today!!!!!!!!!!!!

My desk is completely covered in Aussie flags, pictures, goodbye posters, balloons. Have had hundreds of cards, and pressies(How many did Mick get........................ZERO)


As I opened the door, I thought `Shit,` as my eyes filled up, took a deep breath and in I flounced.............
