No, I'm going to get into the bath and stay there.

Shall I bring the bath oil, scented candles and the bubbly?

For some reason my subconscious seemed to think that read: "Shall I bring the bath oil, scented candles and bobb?"

Beejaysus, what a beautiful day!

Sod off. Yesterday I was prescribed drugs which say on the packet that I must avoid sunshine.

It gets worse: I was also prescribed two other types of drug, one of which has 'Avoid alcoholic drinks' on the label. And I feel bloody awful.

Get Well Soon!

Heed those warnings though. You don't want a Nasty Rash or an Antabuse type reaction.

Awwh, I hope Mr & Mr R have a lovely time in their new home, and that Kirst's new bathroom is everything she hopes for

Your medical training is paying off. I understand they're exactly what I'd be at risk of.

Never mind. It'll probably only last a week. And it's nice to have all the windows & back door wide open, & enjoy the fresh air. And I just had some lovely fresh bread, with nice salami, acceptable cheese, & delicious little tomatoes.

I've noticed little buds on my chilli plant. Hope for a few on my tomato plants too.

I have taken ownership of a small amount of titanium in preparation for my next frame. It's probably just about enough for a quarter of a head tube, and is anodized gold, though the anodizing has started to wear off at one end where it's been grinding against the bone of my upper arm - I've actually been in possession of it for eight months. Six little screws to go with it, too.

The medical training pays off well cos it means I know when warnings like yours are worth heeding and when some health care professionals spout Absolute Bollocks™, which can be surprisingly common.

Yeah I just about think I can, will go down to four days at first just to see if it is possible.

Hope your 4 day week excludes weekends so that you & Peli will be having time off work together

That is the plan, though still have to do "rota"*) days so some weekends work but not ever weekend and I will have a better choice of which weekends I working.

*) since my work is very linked to when others are off their work.

peliroja · « **Reply #2298 on:** 25 May, 2010, 09:54:09 pm »

4 days a week + bigger salary + and more chances of some weekends off =

I think!
