Not too long, LG!!

I'm out tomorrow night, as one of our team has left today so we are going for a meal. I'm hoping not to be too late home though.

We have a full staff briefing tomorrow with all the big wigs. I'm in the 2pm - 4pm session. Great fun NOT :-| :-| :-|

I'm thinking as fast as I can. The old brain doesn't do quick anymore ;-).

Another one Nymphs and Shepherds come away.

YG Report 16 May 2013 22:28

You're lucky it still works at all LG. Mine has failed completely and gone into melt down :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D

Shepherd Moons by Enya. That will do nicely for my lunch break while I have a snooze under the desk :-)

YG Report 16 May 2013 22:39

Well done with the music. That was pretty quick thinking :-D :-D Some grey cells are obviously still working :-D :-D :-D

If you wanted something soothing - how about Beethoven's 'Pastoral' Symphony? That's about the only 'agricultural' music that comes to mind ;-)

Specs fixed, at a price. They had to cannibalise a frame from the display. :-(

Working tomorrow both morning and afternoon.

Enjoy your meal out YG - something to look forward to while gnashing your teeth at the Briefing.

Good morning one and all. Love the choice of music DET. Perhaps we could have Spring by Vivaldi too. Spring lamb comes to mind ;-)

Ovine topiary sounds interesting.

That gives me an idea.

I am busy shortlisting this afternoon.

Apparently it is possible that I will be reported over my new topiary business.

YG

YG Report 17 May 2013 17:23

What d'ya mean 'shortlisting'!! I thought I had got the job and I was just going to tell you how dashing you look in your new topiary outfit :-D :-D Not quite sure what it will be like when Maz has finished with you though :-D :-D :-D :-D

DET, I could have done with the Pastoral Symphony at the briefing. Two hours of utter trash!! Not really looking forward to tonight. I hate meeting colleagues after a day at work :-( :-( :-( The sooner I am home, the better. More expense too and I have two birthdays coming up :-D :-D

ah but YG you will be wasted as secretary so I shall create a new position for you

YG

YG Report 17 May 2013 18:10

Phew!! I thought that bottle of wine had been wasted :-D :-D I did say I would make a better PA, but if you going into topiary perhaps you can find me a suitable position there instead :-D :-D

Must dash and make myself beautiful now. It is for a very rare occasion. I'm going out on the town!!! And not a Scotsman in sight :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D But one never knows one's luck :-D :-D :-D

Morning YG - Although I had a peek yesterday evening, I was so tired I didn't bother too post. We even made it to bed before midnight!

Hope your evening meal out was more enjoyable than you were expecting. If the big guns weren't there, you had a good opportunity to have a b*itch!

Morning all, a very trying day yesterday and not sleeping well due to a tickly cough that is driving me potty. I fell asleep on the sofa curled up with 2 cats as a blanket :-D

You need to very careful where you snip, Errol :-D :-D

DET, it was quite a pleasant evening, although the music was a little loud! I as astounded when we left to walk to the car, because the noise was horrific from all the pubs night clubs. I haven't been into the town at night for many years and it has changed so much. All pubs, banks and eating places now and it was just horrendous. The meal was good, and although our line manager was there, she is very different when she is out. Talk about work was banned and we met up with one of the members of staff who was made redundant and has a new job. She has a wonderful sense of humour so it was a fun night.

Sorry to hear that you are not on top form, LG. Hope you are back to 'normal' soon :-) :-)
