Slid back into bed for five minutes - look what happened! just woke up. The hound is now up and about looking for a walk now he's fully recovered from what was a food allergy. In a labrador fgs, I thought they could eat anything.

Its arctic outside and OH has announced he's full of cold, just before he went back to sleep so must go and get on. Elderly neighbour coming for dinner as she's a bit low, her friend (much more elderly at 90) was taken into a care home on Friday so she's going to be incredibly lonely which is sad.

The dreaded application form is filled in with the easy bits, old employment, qualifications etc, need to do some very creative writing about why I want the job and more importantly how I fit the specification. Since the specification covers all three sections in the department its tough one.

Hi to Rusty & Patrice, nice to meet you.

Stay warm/cool as appropriate.

Just say Sylv that you feel you have given to and taken from everything the current position offered in the past X years.
You do not want to stagnate and feel the new position will offer new challenges to you.

OK - now gimme the job I need the money :H

All Southern Pacific Rugby teams apart from Australia will do the Haka, or their version of it eg Fiji. Tonga, Samoa and of course New Zealand (both teams union and league).

Yes they all do a version... I love the Haka, learnt it when I was 5 years old and it still brings a tear to me eye... The translation is interesting ( its on Google)

Well guys re Ireland V All Blacks... The Al lBlacks are looking to make this the perfect year, so far only one more game to go and they have won them all. GO IRELAND!!!!!

Hi to all in the army. Welcome back Patrice and hello to Rusty. Still in bed in me pjs. Its dull and looks like rain here but it doesn't seem as cold. I forgot to get cat food when I was at Tesco yesterday so gonna have to go out there shortly and not in the mood. That coffee and cake looks nice JC. Well I best get ready to move be back later. I'm not a sports person but it looks the all Blacks are the favourite to win but cud be surprised.
