I was intending to go home at 6 but one of my receptionists was 'too poorly' to do her late shift, the only other person has only been with us 5 days so really had no option but to play the martyr card and stay. The mortally ill person is leaving on Wednesday ...... hmmmm ......
But still half the price they would have been. You've come to the right place for excuses to justify spending money on essentials like shooz, running kit and non-runny clothing
And you managed to reign yourself in and buy only the one pair? Such self control is to be admired Peroni .... but not encouraged in this pub. Did they not do them in a second colour?
Peroni - that's what they did to babies in the sixties though! - outside in our prams in all weathers...
I'm supposed to be taking an excited ten year old obsessed-with-drumming son to Stomp tomorrow, and he's not well .... Does anyone think they'll give me tickets for another day?
They might catch it though... it seems to be ultra-contagious. Third of my four to go down and I'm just amazed that I haven't got it yet, what with my poor hygiene 'n' all. Oh, just joking . I am permanently clad in rubber gloves and a-wafting dettol.
Oh that's a shame Geves. Maybe he'll have perked up by tomorrow. They might change them but I doubt it ... worth a phone call though if he's not any better.
I bought loads more running kit in the sales so I suppose that means I'll have to do considerably more running this coming year ...eeek!!
I should head off to bed too but I'm still wide awake. Haven't packed, although the theory is that I'm leaving straight from work tomorrow to go to friends for New Year .... wonder how that one's going to work
I'd like a drink please TP, a nice cup of coffee would be great. Feeling a bit achy managed to run for 58 mins outside this morning wihtout stopping for the first tim ein 9 months!
Evening ladies ! And goodbye!! It's nothing you've said ... or not said in the exhausted JARS' case ... I'm off to spend NY with friends. I was supposed to finish w*rk at 3.30 and have time to get packed and sorted. I finished at 5 and have just stuffed a couple of bags with clothes. I may have some odd outfits on over the next few days.
Hope you all have a lovely time celebrating the arrival of 2009. Thank you all the lovely pub people for the support and fun we've had from each other this year. It would have been a much duller little life without you all. Hope 2009 brings you all you dream of and deserve. xx

If it is I'm burying my head in the sand, I've had enough meat in the last week to take me through 2009!
Evening all
ST, is it all downhill from here?
Hi everyone,
Nice and quiet and warm in my flat tonight - soooooooooooooooooooooooo cold outside that I don't even want to poke my nose out the door!
evening all
tis very cold out there indeed Peroni, thinking I should hvae put another rug on baby ned tonight
<flops on sofa>
Lovely 12 hours at w*rk today but at least it means I can skive off at 4 tomorrow without any guilt.
I think I'll open a nice bottle of SB to go with the Ostrich. Is it grilled or in some sort of sauce?
I will indeed, she'd on a day shift so we'll survive without her if she's still ill. She won't get her leaving present though.
<makes mental note to remember to buy leaving present>
What could you buy that would be a sarcastic comment about today?!..........
lemsip
watching superman returns
which is a bit confusing for my little head cos it keeps wanting me to type batman returns
baby ned is my loony horse peroni
Everyone gets the same .... £50 of vouchers from somewhere ... I'll just make sure I get hers from a shop she doesn't really like.
What have you been up to today, you ..... holidaymaker!!
Ah I did think it was a horse, it would be a bit mean to leave a human baby outside with just a rug.....................
I have been sale shopping! Oh no, the boots may have been half price but they were still not cheap!

Well..................just the one pair of them but a few other things too..................
You always need more tops for going out on an evening than you have after all ..............
They did have them in balck too but I really wanted brown boots!
Oh that's a shame Geves. Maybe he'll have perked up by tomorrow. They might change them but I doubt it ... worth a phone call though if he's not any better.

Oh no, really hope you don't get it to.
At least your new clothes encourage you to run TP mine just encourage me to go on nights out
Right off to bed to dream about my new boots!!
Night night everyone
xx
Night Peroni. Sweet dreams x
