    How things, folks?

    Quiet here, and I'm self-censoring as I found Mrs CB reading this thread the other day...

      It's bloody cold here today. Had to have the fan heater on in the office and there is still some frost about.

      At least it should stop the bloody grass growing anymore.

        Its a small'ish company so I knew cost would be an issue - I've already trimmed my rate down, but I cant really come much further down.

          Did she start at the beginning?

          It's a very good place to start.

              Only downside is it's another two week wait for an appointment
              Doc doesn't seem to understand he needs to see a back specialist, despite the fact he's had this before and they are not listening to him.

                Lovely and sunny here today, planted all my spring bulbs in a random fashion and will only see what each of them are when they come up in spring.

                Over here you can buy lots of bulbs really cheaply, they normally stick teeny labels in the bags to say what each of them were, the labels had faded.
