Just come back from seeing the firework display at Southwark Park.
Pretty impressive. Better than I expected. http://www.timeout.com/london/around...fireworks-2012 http://www.southwark.gov.uk/info/200...firework_night The above links may expire soon, as it's a done deal. ETA. Was going to see another display last night, accompanied by a laser show, but it was cancelled due to adverse weather conditions. No rain tonight though, or at Blackheath. |

I feel your work-pain! Welcome home to batty and Sad. You had a big job to do out there, but now tis done and I think Amica's right - we need cake sooner rather than later! We had domesic fireworks (moggies hid behins the sitting-room sofa) - Mr M on lighting duty this year as I managed to sprain my ankle falling down a step in the cinema last week so I can't run away from a burning fuse fast enough! Love you all! |

In many ways.handy - healing vibes for the ankle. (((handyankle))) I'm finding that 24 hours in a day aren't enough, which is odd because as of now the plan was to have loads of time to get on with my stuff. Maybe if I get my head down I'll enter 2013 with a clean slate. Oh, before I forget, there was something on Radio 4 yesterday about lard. It took me right back to our Grumpy Say No to Lard campaign (I didn't dream that, did I? )

((((((((((((((Amica))))))))))))) I hope today went better than your typing after the wine
![]() Batty - procrastination is the thief of time .... and no, you didn't dream the lard thing ![]() However, I think we need to say yes to lard and cake in a big way, asap. And I feel in my bones that sooner rather than later should mean very soon indeed. As I'm officially a witch now, that's an order rather than a suggestion

P.S. Am very jealous of those of you with fireworks, managed to see a few from the boy's penthouse suite at Uni and several from my car heading back from the daughter's digs last night - but no displays this year. Feel cheated.

Lard, it's not just for Christmas, it's for life!
![]() Speaking of which, I've just had a rather lovely chocolate doughnut. Had a lovely couple of days, apart from work which was far from lovely - Sad, do you do witchy cursing? If so, I'd like to place an order - is this your new business venture? Marvellous stuff if it is Anyway, back to the loveliness - my tax refund finally came through after several hiccups due to tax agent inputting the wrong bank account number and then when that failed, they sent me a cheque unfortunately in my married name while my bank account is in my maiden name - d'oh! Updated the details now with the tax office but they punished me and made me wait an extra 6 weeks! It means I have enough to pay for my car's annual registration fee, which includes third party injury insurance! That's a worry gone and a little bit left over as a buffer against the bad weeks, oh and I gave LittlePlum $50 and i'm going to spend the same on books for me! She blew hers straight after school yesterday on Monster High Dolls but I've not ordered my books yet! However, 3 books I ordered a couple of weeks ago all arrived today - so I'm a VERY happy bunny! Bedtime for young Plum so I must awa' the noo! |

Great news about the tax money Plumster! I was thinking just in time for Christmas, until I read about all the reckless and much more immediate spending.

Thank you for the good wishes (aagin!) all. Ankle not aching too much now but biiiiiiiig impressive bruise and a bit sore if I try to twist it the wrong way.
Skyfall (now aka Stepfall!) pretty much worth the injury, imo. And I held on to my icecream and my coffee - didn't spill a drop! ![]() Plumster - yay for rebates! Enjoy every dollar! (((((huggle))))Good news - sis-in-law is HOME! ![]() I haven't spoken to anyone on the phone yet but have hed two texts and all is well, though obvs she's not skipping round the house yet! GOW vibes - bloody powerful stuff... ![]() Re the PM - I need a chat with Mr M about weekends between now and Chrimbo, then i'll get back to you. *skips off* (carefully) |

Long-time grumpies will remember KJ's Shed.
Forgive the source of the link, but you need to sample ...Fifty Sheds of Grey

"My rhubarb had come up a treat" is a phrase that'll be used in the batcave, until I'm firmly told to shut up.
