Thought I'd just update my blog before work. It's been so hectic there and to make things worse, Kerri is off for a week. I'm not moaning about her being on holiday because, I hope she's having a brilliant time with Mr Colin, it's just that it's not the same with out her and I'm missing her company.
So what's been occurring? Well, on Sunday evening 10 of us went for a meal at the Ponda Rosa in Ryde. Andrew & I, Gemma & Matt, Lisa & Liam, Elena & Sam & Mum & Dad. We had a great time and as usual Dad came up with some jokes for us ... Did you know the Americans are trying to sell the Flintstone movies to the middle East. Saudi Arabia said they don't want them but Abu Dhabi do ROFL ... what is he like *grin*.
Monday & Tuesday was just work all day and Elena had a jab for Cervical Cancer. She was very brave bless her. It did amaze me how many of her friends opted out because 'they don't like needles'???!!! So they like cancer then ???!!! OMG some people you just want to slap don't you.
This morning I've been to pick up a mystery packet from the post office. It turned out to be these :D
Been to see Mr T and treated myself to a lovely top & necklace (all paid for with coupons of course lol). I am attracted to these colours at the moment, don't know why?
Bought some wine for Judith at drama. She has been so brilliant with Elena, always making sure she's OK and going out of her way for her. Elena's got another performance of 'Alice' this weekend so I thought it would be a good time to say thank you.
Andrew's been busy still in the bathroom and has completely tiled half the bathroom now. He's got Friday & Monday off to take the shower out. I'm not looking forward to it because I love having a shower every morning. I'm not complaining though because I know it has to be done & the bathroom will look great when it's finished. Andrew did offer to 'hose me down' outside instead but I declined. Not so keen on cold water. Not so keen on anything cold to be honest lol.
The grass was still really dry even with the rain from yesterday. It could have had something to do with the wind because it's extremely windy today. Our next door neighbours (the nice ones) have put this up in their garden & it hasn't stopped twirling all day :O) 
Andrew's working really, really hard in the bathroom as I type. This morning he knocked a huge hole in the side of the house so the new waste pipe could be put in for the toilet. 
Then he started making everything good again and this afternoon he's even started plastering the wall. 
Liam's been for an interview today for a job so we've got everything crossed for him.
and carried on like this 
until it ended up with the water pipes dangling from the ceiling like this 
but Andrew being the superstar he is, cracked on until it looked like this 
So now we have a good half and a demolished half :O) 
Liam couldn't wait to christen the bath lol 
whilst Lisa worked her magic on Gemma's hair. 
Matt & Gem have gone to Portsmouth tonight for a night on the town :O)
NEWS FLASH: Jake has just text Elena to say Teresa has gone into hospital to have her baby, I hope she's OK.
He never ceases to surprise me & his latest addition to the bathroom is this, an enormous shower head ~ wow! 
Kerri's been telling me about the latest website she's subscribed to, Sky Watch Friday, so here is my take on it :O) 
The Sky man came this morning & installed Sky+. We've been having problems with Sky since Easter and was told by an independent bloke that the box was on it's way out. Andrew persuaded me that we needed to get Sky+ and as usual he was right. It's brilliant :O) 
I've already paused live TV so I could go and hang up the ironing lol and I saw an advert for the new series of Who Do You Think You Are so it's now going to record it for us and store it until we have time to sit and watch it ~ cool.

Today I spent £60 & paid £16.50 lol so all in all a fab week. My cupboards are now full to bursting which made Liam laugh. He says he feels much safer now in the knowledge that if a nuclear bomb hits us we will have plenty of mouthwash & soap to last us ROFL. Even Claire sent me this ...
Am I a Tescoholic??? Thank you Claire, the coupons were brill xXx
Andrew's been soldiering on in the bathroom and has been swearing a lot at the little tiles. 
They aren't as easy as we first thought because, even though they are attached to each other, it's very difficult to get them all flat to the wall. I don't suppose it helps having uneven walls. It's looking good though and will be fab when it's finished.
