I take it you just work through in order to make the hours up from the travel in

Not sure yet - trying to get all the girls together for lunch at the same time... not easy - so it will either be pub or salad from M&S

Had a great weekend
- became a grand-aunt (to be) on saturday and visited the new mum and baby girl and she was gorgeous.
Sunday I had a lovely time walking the dog in local woods (with her messing the car up with her mucky paws), beat the family at trivial pursuit (as usual). 
The only downside was the 5am start this morning to drive back to Edinburgh and not getting into work until 9.45, but I've got Wrestlemania (my fiance's a WWE fan) and pizza to look forward to tonight.

What are you doing at work with no signed contract? You've implicitly accepted the one on the table by doing that!!
I never turn up without a signed contract that I'm happy with.

Almost - I make a token effort of sitting at my desk for a bit longer, doing very little. Then I pack up and go. That's not quite the same thing, is it?

Boxes mostly unpacked, still got the spare bedroom, study and garage to sort out.
Baby Bear is loving the place, lots of room to run around. He spent the first evening there walking around saying 'I like new 'ouse'.
Baby Bear 2 is due on 10th May, so we have a few weeks to get sorted. Still got names to decide. We've discounted Edward on the basis that 'Teddy Bear' would be a little cruel

Nice one 
Congratulations!!
I want a dog - miss having pets since moving to London, and can't really have one at the mo as I live in a flat. That'll be one of the positives when I move further out or get a place with a garden.

Welcome back Bear
I still haven't unpacked 50% of our stuff yet, and it's been a month.

A project manager at Oracle that I worked for had a whole load of boxes stolen from his garage not long after he'd moved.
Nightmare trying to do an insurance claim - eight years later, they were still searching for things and then realizing that they must have been in a box that was nicked.
