...quickly scratching head trying to remember if there's anything else I've missed :unsure:

Oh, oh, oh.......and I've also emptied the bins and put the wheelie out to curbside......and, and.......:D

I came back from the school run and did the second station run. Came back from that and had a cup of tea and my mid morning snack, preparing myself mentally and physically for the third station run.

47 attempts to get a 19 year old out of bed resulted in no opportunities to fully savour the outdoor life. This has especially irked me as said 19 year old then informed me that his lecturer was still off sick so he didn't have to go in (probably a likely story).

Now - I could go and hack my way through the bush at the end of the garden -but its quite warm out there and, quite frankly, I can't be arsed.

I may go play Sims :)

Can someone change the title of this thread.. I keep veering between an impression of The Joker (Heath style) and the urge to sing Jessie J's finest triumph whenever I read it.

If you turn it upside down you'll find 'MADE IN ESSEX'.

Oh and took wifey to work on the motorbike. Gotta dash down the shops to buy a pressie and card shortly. It's her birthday tomorrow and I don't intend to forget it, no not ever again :scaredhair:

Doesn't go down too well when they ask "Do you know when my birthday is"? and you answer "Yes, it was yesterday" :D

The school run!? :rofl: You clearly spoil your kids. For my lads the nearest they get to a school run is in their trainers. :D

And the worst injustice is when you remember everything card, present, flowers - the lot. But on the morning of THE DAY you forget to give them to her.

:confused: Am I supposed to do housework? :blink:

I'm very busy arranging every hour of the in-laws' January visit. They like being organised, they take cruises and book them 2 years in advance. I get nervous committing to anything a week ahead.

(Have you any idea how hard it is to get bookings for top restaurants even 5 months in advance in this town? And hotels anywhere, around Australia Day? :( )

I like Jessie J, she rocks :thumbup:

Cha-Ching Cha-Ching ...

I might put it on my MP3 player and make the most of the Aussie Experience (tm) ... Or I may continue to do geeky things with my latest technological acquisition ...

I'd probably get moaned at if I did as I don't have the right attitude for a mod. Maybe I could just add 'Oh no we're not'.
