    Just got back after travelling down to their place last night so we could all go out for a celebratory luncheon today

    I've got full blown something nasty

    We've still got no heating - flipping boiler still knackered

    I'm always chirpy - especially first thing in the morning - its a curse
    - least that's what Mr P says

    So far I've been to the dentist, am awaiting the dryer repair man and the boiler repair man. Furniture delivery is in half an hour and I've got the cat at the vets at 6. In between all that I'm filling a skip with all the crap from the garage and crappy old furniture we're throwing away.
    Then the rest of the week is MINE. I've crammed all my holiday chores into Monday, if you're away from home all week you can find you spend your holidays just catching up on all the domestic stuff.

    Plus Pogle Jr is at the stables ALL day tomorrow, so I can do what ever I want, like spend some of those vouchers I've had for ages. I've got £100 John Lewis voucher that is itching to be spent - the ladies will understand

    Oh and the sun is shining and the sky is blue, its cold out there but very very nice

    I want to get to the stage were I only need to do 3-6 months a year contracting, just for holiday money. The rest of the time I can be travelling or doing stuff I enjoy.

    Well mine is self imposed and if I don't hear anything positive about the roles I interviewed for, then hitting sunnier climes might be on the agenda

    Every day is the same working from home or benched, no? If your wife works, you get the house to yourself, except it's half term (mine's a teacher) . It's cold but sunny here... first frost of the autumn but I don't have to defrost the car
