Sunday Relaxation

We have just had soup and homemade bread for lunch and are now relaxing with the Wiggles. They are a childrens entertainment group who are amusing to watch for adults- Tim loves them.


KP is having a bit of a sleep- something which never lasts very long.

Last week was the last part of my project management course- I am now fully convinced that I never- ever want to be a project manager. There is apparently far more to it than learning to use Microsoft Project!


This evening we have one of Tim's friends- and her family coming to tea. We are planning to have roast chicken, followed by dessert pizza- prepared by the children, so probably containing things that you don't really want to think about eating.


Yesterday we went to Reading to look at a new rug in John Lewis. I had not been to Reading before, and will never- ever go again. it is a place which is a long way away, has a large one- way system, no signs, lots of stairs and far too many horrible louts loitering about. Oh, and we decided that we did not like the rug. There was a rug that we did want to buy, but it turned out to be for display purposes only! We had to use 3 different lifts to get to the rug department- one of which went the height of about 5 steps!The only interesting thing to happen on the whole trip was a discovery that I made about Elaine. She had a blocked up nose and despite some one to one intensive training from an expert (as those of you who know me will agree,) was unable to blow her nose. Apparently she cannot do it! I am considering fitting her with some pipework and a connection to carry out a periodic blow with compressed air.

Oh, the KP sleep is already over!

The Wiggles do not look like a group of people I could relax with, the one in the left has either a very bad haircut or a very bad wig; and thanks to Jamie and Hugh you are probably the only people under pensionable age eating chicken this weekend,(when you're that age, if it hasn't killed you already, the cheapness is a bonus.)
The nose story is a joke, the punch line is "The nose has got to want to blow."at which point you hit it. This sometimes starts fights in pubs.
Just time for a snack before the Phantom starts singing. ajen

Project Manager is the best job in the world!

You are a consultant William- you simply tell people that they need a project to be carried out, and that it will require management!

Apparently everyone gets depressed in January.
I don't, but no-one asked me - must have been aj on the survey!
Iv'e danced with the Wiggles & Tim - dead easy dance, even if they are pervs.
They look more scary than he yobs.
Did you put the other chicken in the freezer? (Tesco - 2 for £5)
I think that E was feigning inability to "blow" in order to get her own back on you for desertion/dereliction of duty, etc.
Did the pizza have slugs & snails & puppy dogs tails?
Reading sounds very like Redditch.
Avoid any towns with "Red" in them
Perhaps aj could put your Reading adventure in a poem.

Reading is far worse than Redditch, its signage is worse than Banbury. 'orrible place. Probably needs a project manager to sort it out.
