All was going really well until 01:45 on Xmas morning. Santa had already been and left prezzies in the children's stockings... Then the vomiting started (my other half's 10 year old has had winter-puke-itis or whatever it's called). Chunks everywhere (why spew in the bucket your stood next to, when you can spread it all the way down the stairs and through the dining room?) :thunbdown: Poor lad, talk about the worst ever day to be ill, exciting first night in new house AND Christmas all at once and then you get the lurgy good n proper.
But other than that, all went well, the boy recovered enough to open prezzies and much merriment has been had already in the new pad :cool: Don't to go to work tomorrow, I want to walk out of the front door and into the countryside coz I can!
Sounds fab (well apart from the vomiting!) :w00t:
Happy New Year everyone :D
Looks like Pat is on her way out :rolleyes:
Happy new year.
Back at work now, start tomorrow.
Looking forward to working, been a while now, nearly 4 weeks!
Happy New Year folks, still got one day off work tomorrow:thumbup:
Happy New Year merrysteve. I'm back at work tomorrow :thunbdown:Quote:

I think it is the worst day of the year. So much so I usually book off the first day after the bank holiday, just so I don't have to face it quite so soon. I forgot this year though and paid for it early on with a broken car and a delayed train. Then Costa was shut. Work has been relentless. Now on my (delayed) train home. And just had the car fixing bill - £220. PFFT. Not a good first day back to the grindstone, but quite a good day for my mechanic.
It was on the news this morning that today is the worst day for car breakdowns http://i592.photobucket.com/albums/t...gebit/sad2.gifQuote:

Yes I saw that too Alf! Some bloke was wittering on about batteries and the like. Didn't mention water pumps did he though, pfft! Thankfully I didn't actually break down en route to work, it was making a funny noise before the weekend so decided to get it to the garage pronto. Wouldn't have liked being stuck waiting for the AA (other recovery services are available) somewhere out there in this weather today :thunbdown:Also, this doesn't explain why Costa was shut :angry:
Oh I am very envious merrysteve :thumbup: Although I did get some new wellies for Xmas, with liquorice allsorts on 'em. They ain't warm though :closed:Quote:

Me too MerrySteve :thumbup: Early night for starters, good night's sleep I hope, coz I missed off my whinge list that I hardly slept last night zzzZZZ.
Hope your second day back was better than my first OneHill, highlight of the day was getting rain and windlashed coming home on bike, it were that bad. Sod this working till you drop, i need to retire next week!Quote:

Even have a slightly elasticated top so no wellie slap on calves. I could go all night but the wellies are yawning and need to be snuggled up.................is it a crime to love your wellies:w00t:
I've been borrowing the daughter's Hunters wellies for a few days now to take the dog out and they are brilliant! I want some!Quote:
