My last 'office hours' day. I have got my proof of no claims bonus arriving a few days after we've left. OK, so far so good. Sat staring at crap in wardrobe for approx 10 mins, then decided to leave it for tomorrow. :thumbup:

Hey, the apple was a good start!! Just four more pieces of fruit to go to get your daily allowance. I decided to put off the immigration diet until I arrive because 'I'm going to be so active and running along the beach everyday...' :sneaky:

Yeah I feel better coz I had the apple! lol.... no chance to have 4 more pieces as I'll be off to bed in a bit.

I'd love to go running but have metal in one leg and I limp so would look a bit stupid and it would hurt me. :unsure: But Im horse riding tomorrow so a bit of exercise at least.

I didn't do that it would have been hilarious, but, sadly, illegal!!!:frown:

So instead I spent the day reading all the threads/posts on here whilst taking the p*£s out of Boss all day and saying things that would annoy, for example;

"Of course when it rains in NZ it's a much better quality rain ..."

"Is that man inches or the real unit of measurement?" (Whilst reading draft detail room measurements you understand?!;)

"I want works in my world, sadly not in yours ..." etc, etc. I had such fun!!!:rofl:

Now the buntings been packed away and another era over ...:(

I'm soooo glad that NZ has such crap weather (see "weather" thread) as I wouldn't want to run the risk of missing the grey skies, torrential rain/hail, 2C today and have I mentioned the rain?!

5 weeks yesterday we fly. 4 and a half weeks we depart the County!!!!! (There is a God and he smiled on me when he introduced me to Kiwi Hubby!!!):rofl:

Well - you've obviously finished your last day :) I think, on last days, you should be able to just turn up for the leaving pressie and leave :lol: Have a great few weeks off before you leave - I'm sure there will be lots of memories to be stored up :thumbup:

Where are you coming to again? Sorry - I hate when I have to ask this - it's not that I don't read people's posts, it just gets confusing :o
