owl Posted May 15, 2008 Report Share Posted May 15, 2008 I haf just bought me some worms If you need any more, just shout. My wormery is chockablock. Worms (the composting kind) are great Karen, don't worry, I'm not decorating the house or any kind of Xtreme sport like that. Just a bit of decluttering and rearranging to make it easier to live in. I had to pack a lot of things away to make room for electric bed and assorted bits of disability equipment loaned to us by the council. It was all removed on Tuesday leaving a huge empty space, so I have been bringing furniture back into the house and making it look like a home again. It has been a creative and cheering thing to do. And the latest surreal experience in the Life of Owl is that Railtrak managed to mislay my mum She was travelling from Worksop to Aberystwyth on escorted journey. All went well at New Street Brum, she was carefully assisted through the maze of passages and up and down steps. Then at Shrewsbury, which is a much simpler station, they showed her to a seat and forgot about her. It seemed a long wait, so she called to a rail person to ask what was happening. Shock, horror, apologies and they sent her by taxi across the mountains to Aber. Spectacular journey, she loved it and felt she had done very well out of their mistake. My sister rang, she has flu and I fink she left it with me Oh yes, the other surreal experience was that the rats, which had been driven out of the house by Polly and the loft by ferrets, holed up under the floorboards and ate through both the hot and cold pipes creating a sodden floor in one corner. The foundations are all flooded. It is all mended now, after plumber took up floorboards and sorted it. The heating is on, trying to dry it out. And I have given up and called the pest officer. Laura, that poor girl is in my thoughts, and so are you Sarah Chook, it's not disloyal at all, but a compliment to Bear that you want to take on another dog in need.

snow Posted May 15, 2008 Report Share Posted May 15, 2008 This weather is weird - I have steadfastly refused to turn the central heating back today on which I switched off due to the heatwave and have sat here in shorts and T shirt shivering all day - til I gave in and switched over to jeans and put the central heating back on an hour ago at least hubby won't feel jealous any more when I speak to him later I am writing an email to someone and have opened by telling them I don't "do politics" and beleive in straight talking ... 3 pages later and it still not being finished I am starting to think they are going to wish they'd never emailed me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nouggatti Posted May 15, 2008 Report Share Posted May 15, 2008 Nah Abby something exciting must be on the telly Very very funny in work today, I'm sharing an office with twelve people on my teams whilst I wait for auditors to vacate my office (this is going on now FIVE months) Anyway whinge aside, the room I am in has 11 blokes and two women in it, and is in a listed building with big sash windows. There is no aircon so when it is hot all sorts of beasties fly in. I had gone out for something, and whilst I was out a monstrous bee has flown in and attacked our DBA (it invaded his space more like) He then decided to get up and try and usher said bee out of the room. I then arrived in as he was half dancing around the room, and as I came in he said "jaysus, would you look at the size of that YOKE!" (yoke is irish slang for a thing/person) I stopped, wondering wft he was referring to, he turned around, saw me, and pronounced loudly to the room that he hadn't meant to direct the comment at me, went scarlet, and the entire room exploded in laughter. This then went on for several hours, with another member of staff taking on bee ushering duty and trying to get it down from the ceiling, another started singing "come down from the mountain" at the bee, the DBA arrived out wanting to scab a fag and being told by me he could have one if he washed his mouth out etc etc. It was very amusing (maybe only if you were there) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simikins Posted May 15, 2008 Report Share Posted May 15, 2008 Much sadness about here at the moment Laura we get quite a lot of young people who have done similar things on the ward i work on, they do get better. Sarah, Bear would understand, go for it if it feels right. I'm going to my nieces 21st birthday party tomorrow night, it is a 1940's themed party, i have an original green old lady type dress that i'm wearing, and i have purchased a hairnet to do my hair up in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
