I thought it was regarding the new fancy names some workers have been given.

Awww

Just something I saw when down my local shops earlier

Well - re my post earlier ^^^^ regarding X Factor.

Apparently it's all very shambolic, chaotic and like a cattle market.

They were there six hours and D's niece got to sing in a canvas booth in front of directors/producers whatever they were for 30 seconds before being told No.

They were queued up outside in hot sun for two hours before being let inside - my son was horrified that an old lady near to them collapsed (fortunately there was a nurse in the throng) it took over 30 minutes for the medics to get there but the camera men filmed it all right from the start.

I'm really not surprised ........................I'm just more surprised that people actually bother to show up. There must be easier ways

My son rang this morning to say that his face is really sore as he got sun burn waiting outside ..............that really must be a first in all the years he's lived in Manchester.

To be fair, it's sort of what I would expect. I think deep down we all know these shows are sanitised and edited to look slick and fun.

For me (If I actually needed one which I don't) just another reason not to watch the programme.

My advice for anyone wanting to be a vocal artist (I know quite a few musicians and singers) is to get a good vocal coach (essential) and learn how to be a singer, train the voice and look after it. Network with other local musicians, join vocal groups and if time allows try and work with bands.

I'm not going to plat that one Erin, i'll never get to sleep again if i did

Someone pleeeeaaasee kick me up the arse.

I've been sitting about all day telling myself to get up and get the toilet prepared for painting (wash down walls etc) and then actually paint it but I have no interest in doing it whatsoever.  It really needs done but I don't want to do it 

Ells ..........don't worry about it - in the words of Scarlett O'Hara

On another note - has anyone got or does anyone know anything about Laundry Drying cabinets? I quite fancy getting one but they are pricey and I'd like some first hand opinions.

Soozy, I started!!  Then my eldest offered to make me a cup of tea so I'm sat on my arse again

Also probably best to check I have paint brushes before I decide to paint.  Have had to ring MIL to send me down one for the cutting in.  She told me off for painting, especially because the toilet is such a tiny room and no room in there for any movement but I've told her her lazy son said it do it ages ago and hasn't  He's up there now, I hope she gives him what for

I walked through in to the living room earlier to find a rather large pigeon wandering around. It saw me, didn't panic (thankfully) and just moseyed its way back out of the house.

I can't get the song from Sister Act out of my head and I have no idea how it got there.  Usually I'd start singing something if I see an Ad for it or someone posts something about it but I've not (to my knowledge) seen anything about it.

It's that 'I will follow him' song.   And of course my youngest is cracking up every time I sing it, because I don't just 'sing' it, I 'Whoopie Goldberg' it.

I bet the driver messed his underwear when he realised what was happening.

I bet he did too.

twice in 6 days ive been to frankie & bennys for birthdays lunches..

on my birthday i had that old italian stalwart burger & chips

today for lisas sons birthday i had every italian family's favourite

fish & chips

We went twice last week for the breakfast.  It was nice enough but they burnt the bacon.

I want to try the main menu soon.

lisas son had calzone pizza with side of fries

fries are £3.75!

anyway, ill try that next i think

lisa had penne romano or summat like that

she said it was wonderful but needed garlic bread

Yes, pasta needs garlic bread at all times!

I am not planning on going unless it's during their 'cheap' menu times.  I hate spending a fortune eating out.

Geez I cannot cope with the raging hunger I am getting these days.  I've gone from telling the OH not to bother making me any dinner because I wasn't hungry (and he was making chicken dippers and chips.....ugh) to getting in a tizz because I am starrrrving and need food or I'm going to be sick.

I've ended up ringing for a chicken ball special from the chinese.  It better get here SOON!

 Those pregnancy hormones are really kicking in.

They are Yogi, the delivery was really fast but I was half way through when I realised I don't actually like it that much.  I need to do more shopping because everything I bought on my last trip to Tesco is now still sitting in fridge/cupboards because even though it was what I wanted at that time, I've gone straight off it.

Fab pic EC ^^.

Wow I love that pic, team work

Not much of a meal between them though 

My OH has been throwing quite a strop recently about spending near £20 a week on various sets of number in the lotto and today tells me he's refusing to do it again because he's sick of wasting money when we've not won anything in years.  So I said ok drop all the various lines we usually do and just do 3 new numbers for hotpicks in the English and Irish lottos.  So he does and they came out in the first draw of the Irish lotto  So for £3 we've won £331. 

Niiiiice! Well done Ells 

Wow that was amazing
