Hello grumpers.

I am feeling deflated. no particular reason, but since everyone is asking where the others are, I thought I'd check in.

I know why Amica is asking, hint hint.
'Tis my birfadee soon and I need everyone to wish me a happy day - cos it will make me feel important and special etc. like when people write I am reet fed up on facebook and everyone asks why and so they get lots of replies saying why? and poor you! and loads of attention and then they feel better! I won't at all be depressed that I am another year older and everything is another year saggier.

Sending special healing vibes to sad and laura ~~~~~~~~ while i'm around.

I also apologise for the rubbish punctuation but i can't be bothered with the capital letter button at the mo cos i'm in a grump cos of work but will of course be completely fine in 33 minutes

much love xx

Morning all

Happy birthday soonly Amica ..... and you are important and indeed special. I see that more than 33 minutes have elapsed so you are now fine and don't require any sympathy and awwwwws, vibes or hugsss or anything ... but I shall send them anyway - you can put them in the cupboard til required, filed under "internet sympathy" Seriously though, I hope things pick up for you, I was going to add "so you are no longer grumpy" but then that might imply that your presence here is no longer required

Sad - what can I say? how unlike you to overdo things eh?! tsk tsk nothing changes. Put your feet up, do as little as you can reasonably get away with and allow yourself to heal, otherwise you're just hindering the process. I'm looking at you quite sternly here young lady I fully expect you to take no notice, say "yes mum" and do as you please. I know I would!

KJ - I hope you are feeling somewhat more inflated today .... although not bloated because that is uncomfortable

Hope everyone else is well and happy!

Happy Birthday TODAY Amica
Hope you feel fabulous and that you have cake... if not, that will be remedied around Easter time, I am sure

Today I am cross, but only with myself. Plummy - spot on But in fairness I only did what felt right at the time, it's just caught me out again. I'll learn. I promise. Mum

Herewith wishing the happiest of days to all grumpers, but extra special vibes to these grumpers, who post and sometimes lurk here, 'cos you lot are special grumpers.

It's grumpy personal career appraisal time. Bad attitude, bad timekeeping, good team players, but that last one is fluff and not incentivized.

So there.

What do we say?

Happy YesterBirthday, Amica! Hope it was lovely, cos you are. And that's not internet fluff, that's the Truth!

Sad, FGS!!! *taps foot impatiently*
Behave yourself. All those PMs you sent me about taking it easy and not doing stuff.... grrrrrrr!

Here we've been having an Adults Day, which unfortunately meant spendiong the morning cleaning, but for tunately meant spending the afternoon eating too much and watching lots of out Spooks box-set marathon. Yays!

We pout a bit of Lionel Ritchie on at one point, too...

(((((((((((((((((((((((((((((GOWs))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))

Ooh - not too far from me and I've never been. I am off to have my talons polished as I am off out tonight for another treat - lucky me.
Work is s**t so I need all the help I can get!

Thanks for the birthday wishes cyberchums. Onwards and upwards.

Hope that people who went to happy places last night still feel happy today..... x

Next time we're going I'll let you know and you can meet us if you're free!

We had a great time there today - the gardens have loads of twisty-twiny paths, steps, bridges, corners etc, there's a fake Greek temple and a big lawn with a fountain. And a play area with a corking climbing frame. And they make their own cakes and biscuits!

Hope you have a lovely treat tonight, and that everybody else is being suitably Saturday

That sounds lovely handy.

Here, I'm juggling too many balls, so to speak. And my mobile hot spot in a nearby field seems to have disappeared (aliens moved it I reckon) so although I'm getting texts I can't text back. Sad, I'll respond once I'm out and about in the car and closer to civilisation.

I have a new phone and haven't anywhere near got my head round it yet so there's no rush Batty

Six week check up tomorrow morning... have to be there at 8.30am, which in itself is likely to be a severe shock to the old system

Luckily he didn't go there

Signed off until Easter - *sigh* - and orders to be kinder to myself. And there I was thinking I'd need to make a case for going back so late - he thinks I'm likely to need more time after that, but we'll see. Arsebiscuits, as our lovely butler would say (under his breath, natch).

Thanks for the vibes... hope your Monday is okay
