Title: And so it begins
Post by: Miss Demeanour on October 05, 2009, 06:39:29 PM: Christmas that is

I was asked at the weekend by some friends what my plans are and would I like to come to them Banghead Banghead Banghead

I was affronted by a display in the supermarket when I went to get my brekky Banghead Banghead Banghead

The Argos catalogue has already got pages turned down for me indicating The Brat has been indexing her wish list Banghead Banghead Banghead

An email went around the team today offering choices of venues and set menu's for the big team knees up Banghead Banghead Banghead

Once my bedroom has been completed I am officially hibernating - again whistle:

Post by: Miss Demeanour on October 05, 2009, 07:28:30 PM: Oh I am a positive soul honestly ...enjoy a good laugh ....and am finally able to enjoy a bit of freedom now that the Brat is getting older.

I have a lot of things to be thankful for and I genuinely am.

However I am now more of a realist ......after many, many years of being a dreamer. But again that is not a bad thing ....maybe it means I'm getting more mature . God I hope not lol:

Personally I find that people with a permanent positive attitude just don't now what's really going on. And they're bloody annoying.

I used to have one of those "inspirational posters" on my office wall until a new MD ordered its removal.

The picture was of a very depressed looking ape beneath which was the legend
"Anyone here who is happy with the situation ~
CLEARLY doesn't know what's happening"

Post by: Snoopy on October 06, 2009, 08:13:21 AM: Indeed it is Uncle, indeed it is.

The new MD referred to earlier was parachuted in following a take over and he didn't even have the bottle to tell me himself but told the Building Manager to tell the cleaners to remove the poster. Arse!

He only lasted 4 months.
