Spider killings and reaching things on the upper shelves. Those are the reasons the old man is still around.

HE doesn't kill spiders, he offers them immigration visas and a full relocation package including flights...

Unless they are red backs... Then he tries to keep them as pets...

I've had a crappy sort of day on the whole. Very busy at work so was on the go all day apart from a quick late lunch break during which I managed to lose my purse or it was stolen, which I wasn't aware I had done until I got a phone call late afternoon to say that it had been recovered! Strangely enough the purse was found at the shopping centre where I work (which isn't strange as that's where I lost it) but was then handed in to the customer service desk at a completely different shopping centre across town! Work wouldn't let me go and get it as we are so busy, so I have to make do without it til tomorrrow. My boss did offer to lend me any money I might need for this evening which was nice of him!

My cards are apparently still there, just cash has gone and my wedding ring. Other than the fact that it was an expensive ring, I don't care about that too much as the relationship is over anyway - it's just annoying... and a bit puzzling as to what actually happened. Left me feeling a bit bleuuuaaarrrrghhh though. I think I need a holiday.

Sorry about the day and the purse - if you can it may be worth asking the bank for new cards just in case

Funny you should say that I was just thinking that I will do that or I'll worry that sooner or later a few internet orders will go through courtesy of me. It will be inconvenient but better than losing money and/or worrying.

There was a report of a card skimmer here this week attached to an ATM - just made me think. Don't know how long it takes here though - shouldn't be too long and probably worth it for peace of mind.

Still annoying though

Would be glad to get back to work in the morning IF I had anything clean to wear and IF I didn't know it is going to be ANOTHER week from he'll
