Odd things occuring with Blogger!!

have lost blogs and blog entries are all messed up and not in chronological order. I have also lost comments  that other peeps and myself have made!!!  Hmm the Friday 13th curse doth strike in the cloud and buzz around the ether as well eh!!! And here's me thinking the virtual world might be safe from superstition!!!! lol Silly me!!!

Hope everything is resolved and returned soon!!!
Biggles was stood down from his BT workman drama at silly o'clock before he had to leave which is good but still knacked up our plans.

Soiree last night at chums house for a good old catch up

We have a party to go to so must dash and get wee one ready!   Also have lots of planting ad  garden and domestics ( evil booooo) to do before weeny girl goes to other family for the evening . Biggles collecting a shiney new bike today so have that new addition to look forward to. Am,debating picking up  weeny girl early and doing the animal park as its free. Will see how far I get with chores! Biggles off to Croft some bike do so will not be back till late on Sunday.  Busy busy and I need to get to Lidl!!!

annoyed

grrr  Biggles soddin  silly employers yes thems the ones in blue, same as HRH Prince Williams. Well something  important  is broke which means Biggles who was staying with us this week (we have a bizarre living arrangement due an array of stuff) has been dragged off to  Scotland to be a 'manual type person or rather will be at dragged away at an ungodly hour tomorrow morning, It has really fecked with our plans and put us both in foul moods.  Hmm I think they often take the piss as he is a kind of  in their opinion a bachelor type without they feel responsibilities (not married so not counted as of any importance- military are so fecking archaic in this country. Australia so much more civilised on this point and nor do we live together kind of)  Weeny girl will be really miffed tomorrow morning as no Biggles. We have things to do and meals planned and food bought  but then again national fecking security blah de blah. Some sodding phone technician from  BT has cocked up. Hopefully back by the weekend as he has a very nice shiny new bike to pick up!!!

Ha ha have I mentioned before that the princeling would have to salute Biggles as his superior!! I find this highly amusing!!! hee hee hee (but not that we could in theory end up a the same mess event as those two peeps. Its Wag-ish enough )

Long time no speak unfortunate happenings and purple suede!!

So Sheffield was grand  and back to work with a dull thud and a broken exhaust to the tune of £241!!! I did pick up a great purple suede jacket for £5 - not vintage  only brand new  but a great shade of purple anyway.

Other than that - just working and being busy and still unable to save given the above!!! Its also my mums birthday soon so we are visiting Scotland - all three of us over weekend of 21/22nd May. Hiring a caravan for three nights as this is cheaper than a family room for same time.  Will stay with family when I go on my own. Also have a kiddies party this weekend which is another expense but the little girl is the daughter of a dear friend so I don't mind so much.

Invested in an epilation session for all of £2!!!  perm hair removal from the college beauty spa!!! £2 for the removal of unwanted facial hair - worth it in my opinion. Hopefully I shall not be bothered by errant hairs when I am older and cannot Weild tweezers effectively enough to root the buggers out!!!

Had another flood in the bathroom - Weeny girl left the tap running and it dripped over the side of the bath and ( it pools and runs off the bath rim - doesn't fill the bath which I would have heard) So this is two unfortunate things!!!

Fingers crossed!!! Will post pics of the jacket when I get a chance - I lurve the colour!!

Made my first quorn chilli - tasty and eaten with pitta and cheese. Would be lovely with some nachos and cheese and jalepeno 's!!   Yes some is in the freezer for the future!!!!

Also have hit 11stone. I need to loose some weight and do some excercise. I shall endeavour. This is all I will commit to at this point- I shall endeavour lololol


Much love peeps!!!

FE college!!! Hair cut for £8 and other little gems!!!

After a lovely weekend and time spent with my sister and Biggles, I returned to  work yesterday....... boo  however there is an up side to working in an FE college Cheap haircuts!!! and cheap beauty treatments! Cheap food in the student run restaurant and nice food  - so good spot for lunches you take with friends! 2.50 for a main course of restaurant standard is not bad at all!! ( Won't be many of these however)  Hair cuts and hair removal of the epilation stylee for £2 a session may be indulged!!!

I would like to see them roll out their services to include painting and decorating and other household maintenance They have a joinery and carpentry departments,  plumbing, gardening (- horticulture) am a sure simple maintenance service would be very very popular! 

Some car valeting ( FREE)  goes on  but only for the chosen few - I feel I may try to wheedle my way into this group!!!

I would def recommend checking out your local  FE college if you want some ultra cheap pampering and lunch!!! Most colleges will have a working salon, spa and restaurant!! Downside would be that they are only available term time! Some offer an evening service - check it out!!!  The student let loose on my hair  who done a very good job was an experienced level three student. This means they have studied for at least two years  possibly three prior to being let loose and have passed qualifications and several placements in working salons outside of college.It will cost me just as much to get Weeny girls hair cut!!! They do not take children under 12 which is pants!!!

I think a treat or two may be in order for the princely sum of £2-3- not a bad to while away your lunch hour and for a self esteem boost every so often its cheaper than regular salons and you help a young person learn and achieve! I shall update you with my adventures in FE college as they happen!!!


I also have an invite to a free day/look around at the new college animal gardens! The weeny one will appreciate this. I have actually already been  but will indulge again!!! 

I like cheap and free!!

Lurching from one event to another!!!

Am hoping that life will calm down soon and I can get on with the saving!!! So far no chance!!!  Oh well theres always next month. Sheffield and Mother Biggles house again next week - am hoping to get to a car boot rather than a shopping centre! Food should be fabulous however.

Reduced the price on the house event further today in the hope that I may get a sniff of interest!!! I can always say no!!!  Biggles defending, Weeny girl at her other family's for the night. Today  I achieved nothing apart form sofa sitting and snoozing! Ok I purchased mould resistant paint and called in at the estate agents and made Thai curry for tea- a Biggles favourite.
Tomorrow I shall be productive!

I shall accomplish:
Painting the bathroom ceiling and cleaning the bathroom, cutting of  the grass, hoovering throughout and attack the ironing with gusto!!!!!! Change bedding in both rooms.  All before I pick up weeny girl at 4pm, then sister from station at 5:30pm and make sure Sunday Roast Chicken et al is well on its way for half six at the latest.  Biggles staying. First time he will have met the sister.  Will be grand! hee hee!!!

Royal wedding day and little tales

Ok we are up - Biggles still in bed  but then again he is defending the country and working Sat, Sun and Mon.  A few things to do today including cutting the grass for this afternoons barbecue fun!!! Watering the pots would be a good choice too - I am so rubbish at gardening style stuff - essential watering tut tut tut

Mum fine and the seating thing has been sorted  and many thanks to Lovely Grey for her advice.  Better seat- has been enjoying the garden and sitting outside. Royal wedding today so they will be flag waving or rather those able to will be and also watching the telly and ding relevant activities or just observing in mums case. I think the stimulation in so far as people watching will be more beneficial. Even though she has advanced Alzheimer's - minimal language and expressions, no recognition, no ability to perform personal care tasks of any sort including feeding her self-  I like to think that she might get something from a change in environment and activities around her changing on a regular basis and of course chocolate!!! There will be lots of this!!! 

Sister arriving on Sunday for a few days - have meals planned  - roast chicken dinner Sunday, carbonara on Monday and pizza on Tuesday.  Biggles being taxi driver for Sunday and Wednesday when she heads off again.

Ok more coffee before we start the days activities - we have a union flag flying on the washing line and a special table cloth for later!  Hmm what will go down better with the  weeny one- princess dress or red white and blue stuff!!! I know what my money is on!!!

Still tired!!!

Ok am off for an early one again. Work and snooze and such -  simple tea cheese on toast with beans- thick home made bread. Work fine. Car bill has the service but not the MOT or  wheel bit listed on it!  Mechanics billing can be very odd
