Since you ask ...... An early bike ride on which I met an old work colleague who filled me in on a lot of recent events. I used to see a couple walking their OE sheepdog and hadn't seen them for a while. Apparently the dog had died. This made us sad since he was such a lovely boy.
I did a bit more year end finance preparation.
Later relaxed with a jigsaw.
Had a laugh at Masterchef. It really is comedy gold. Breaking Bad concluded the nights viewing.

KNOWHOW.COM - avoid them!!!

Will do. 

I found Tesco Direct staff rude and their delivery policy unhelpful beyond belief.[They aren't able to telephone couriers if there's a delivery problem, only email - which can take 24 hrs]. More than a week waiting for a named delivery, items missing, so I cancelled the remaining ones. Then the cancelled orders turned up anyway. I will NEVER order from them again.

Returning from a lovely day out to find a rabbit in the middle of the road.

It wouldn't move.

So i got out and it didn't run away - so i shoo'd to the side of the road.

I noticed its eyes were closed and dripping white stuff.

So i called at a local house and workmen there said it was myxomatosis and he would 'hit it with a shovel'

At least you stopped and tried to shoo it off the road. Sounds like it was very diseased...  poor wee bun  

TBH, that was probably the best thing to do for it....put it out of it's misery

What do you do Sprout?

Reception/Admin for a private training company.   CV's and the like and putting peeps through SIA (security) and driver, and CSCS card (building site worker) training.

 

Peeps have to be unemployed though and we work alongside JCP not for them

Sounds a great life experience

Best of luck Sprout

Ta.

 

Truth be known, this is only the second job I've had....worked In the offices of Safeway for thirty years before I was made redundant from there too.

 

Here's hoping I'll get something else
