On my to do list, everyone who has been has raved about it.

 

Far as I'm aware you aren't dead yet so it should still be on yours as well. :thumbup:

I just think I missed my opportunity to go, it would have been a lot easier then.  My sister has been and said it was a real dive, but that appeals to me rather than puitting me off, plus the music scene of couse, my sister still listens to Wham! so i don't think she really appreciated it.

Mixed. The ex leaves tomorrow and on the back of that my pay is going up by a quid an hour which could be the difference between keeping the house or not. I nearly cried when the gaffer told me lol

Dad finished his chemo course and his results say no change which is excellent news

Good news all around. You deserve it after what you've been through recently so well done :thumbup:

Sounds like a bold move is paying off. Nice one mate.

I dunno, i dont particularly want her to leave

I know it's hard mate and we on here don't know the half of it but from what you've told us it seems like the best thing for you - even though it doesn't seem like it right now.

Best thing to do is get the boys together, go out, have a few and bring some birds back to your place. Once you've smashed your way through some slags I'm sure the ex won't seem so special then.

After a while you can go out and find a decent girl to have a new relationship with.

Hit a brick wall with uni work. 10 days to do 5,000 words, bleughhh

Forget about it for a few hours and just relax then come back to it.

Secured a new house for next year. Thankfully it's a bit closer to Uni, and it's in a more student area. Seem to live further out than other students at the minute, and it's more of an estate (families, older people etc) but students next door should be better next year. Chance of meeting new people and all that.

Keep doing that but it's not really helping. Aim was to get this done (another 2,000) before I go to sleep so I can get started on the other one Sunday. Not really sure that's going to happen now!

Take it from me, if you are not fighting to keep her then your heart is not really in it.  Life is too ****ing short to waste it in a relationship which is going nowhere just becuase it is comfortable and familiar.  You are doing the right thing.

Was going alright, until I had a laughing fit over a Sheep Soft Toy, which then resulted in me coughing and choking, then having a panic attack.

How is everyone else planning to celebrate Dick Van Dyke's 88th birthday today?

 

I'll be heading down to my local A&E ward to impersonate a doctor and hopefully (fingers crossed) solve a murder. Then I'll probably sweep a chimney and have a bit of cake. I know it's not hugely original but it's what I do every December 13th.

Bought some shoes and a jumper today from Greenwoods. Paid more than I normally would but they have a half price sale on and I do have birthday and Xmas money to spend so not to worry no taxpayers money was uded.

Shoes were £20 and jumper £13 with £5 off over £30 spent. Don't know how but it came to £29. Still I expect its better quality than I was having to buy before.

Genuinely one of the worst days I've had in years.

 

Locked up the shop on Thursday night (first time I've done it by myself) with two new staff, couldn't get everything done so that stressed me out no end, had to keep two staff there for half an hour extra just to get waste done and by the end of it I didn't know if I'd done everything or not because I was a bit flustered by it all. I don't even normally get stressed, it takes quite a lot but it was horrendous. I still have no idea if I missed something or did anything wrong because I've had today off, which has probably made it worse because I'm just stressing about it all.

 

Then today I had to send my girlfriend off home for 3 weeks over Christmas, so that absolutely sucks. I'm going to see her before Christmas at some point but it's still rubbish. It's like all work no play now, pants.
