BITS AND BOBS

Not much been happening this week, although today I was up silly'o' clock to go to London, for my six weekly visit to my hairdresser and no the above photo is not the new hairdo..lol, Ive been going to D for almost eighteen years now I still make the trek all the way to Wembley near where I grew up and as usual I fell asleep under the dryer..lol.

Also I've managed to book my Christmas flights to Limoux in the South of France for 4 days I'll be spending the time with one of my oldest friends who moved there 3 years ago(I'm still jealous) managed also not to spend a fortune on the flights £120 rtn compared to last week it was almost £300rtn, I fly out from Stanstead to Carcasonne the whole journey from home to there takes about three hours in total which is not bad and at least i don'y have to cook!! bonus, my going for xmas gets my friend out of a family xmas with his partner, last year they went to his partners brothers home with all the family and the lady of the house charged them 50 euros per head for their dinner!!!! after she served it of course, had it been me i would have charged her the same for the pleasure of my company for the day..lol. so it will just be the two of us loads of food and the fantastic local wines.

Last week I had a nice surprise, i've been a member of  www.Friendsreunited.com since 2000 and have rekindled a few friendships from my schooldays, well last week i was contacted by two more which was great and we have made plans to meet up in the new year one girl in particular i've known since I was six and the other we met at Secondary school so a couple of boozy nights planned, it's amazing how you revert back to sixteen again when you had everything ahead of you, we still have but with a bit of experience now, but i have to admit you could'nt pay me to be sixteen again life seems so difficult for teenagers now...lol.

Still studying hard I think my brain is now soaking up the necessary information, some of the modules are very hard but I'm persevering and enjoying it immensley and now completed 20 of the 30 modules.

It's been lovely meeting other journalers in chat I now have about 30 on  alerts it takes over an hour to go through them everyday, but hey it's good fun.

Thats about it for now oh and please sign my guest book thanks
