More sunshine!

Yay,  sunny day number 2.   Bootiful,  nice to at last put on the summer clobber.  Popped into work,  had to take final sick note... it all comes to an end on 23rd May...  yippeeeeee      After that had a quick mooch round shops,  got mum a new duvet set, as she requested last week...    craft mag, cos it had nice stamp set on it.   And avoided the new 'milka' bar,  ugh, how dare Kraft mess with cadburys!    Do not buy this abomination,  avoid it at all costs.  They've already shafted the cadbury employees.

So with lunch out of the way had no choice but to fix that planter.  Needed to replace the sides,  so had to get out tool kit, drill, hammer, nails,  screws...   but an hour later it was all done and as good as new.  Just needed a coat or two of wood protector,  then plant it up.   Was very happy with result,  even managed to avoid any accidents, like bashing thumb with hammer.

Also have a new neighbour,  who seems to like loud music,   she was playing it for an hour after she came in,  so jury is out, this has always been a friendly road,  we all get along and no-one upsets anyone.  Will see what happens at weekend, if she is noisy I'll have a friendly word and see if she takes note, if not then I'll be in touch with the housing association.  Not sure her other neighbours will be very happy as they have a young baby, so they'll not want a noisy neighbour. 

Mum came home after lunching with friends,  so showed her the new duvet set, and what does she say?  That she doesn't need a new set!  Yes she does, she only has one that now matches her newly decorated bedroom,  and she was saying all last week that she needed another duvet cover....     Mind you she also asked me last week if we should switch to Freeview.....  er we've only had Freeview for the last few years!  

Was joking with a friend that I was not a fan of the CD rom crafts,   mainly cos it costs so much to print off backing papers.   We were comparing QVC and CnC,  how CnC has a lot of crafting CD roms, whereas QVC seemed to ignore them, and so what was the QVC TSV for craft day - a CD rom!   At which point I switched off TV, put out light and went to sleep.

Well let's hope that summer has arrived, and hangs around till September - please!

I was in a presentation today about new system for documents, some bright spark asked if people with standalone PCs would be able to access the documents - doh, clue is in name!
