Come on Ireland 🇮🇪 🏉

And so it begins .. petrol at Sainsbury’s has gone up by 6p a litre and they’ve completely run out of everything apart from super unleaded 🙄

Yesterday was #WorldBookDay .. sadly my granddaughter didn’t get to partake as she wasn’t at nursery however most days are dress up day for her .. here she is as Stickman

Having one of those days where everyone is irritating me .. not great when you work in an office!

I think England would struggle to beat bloody Wales the way they’re playing at the moment 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏉

Just saw George Clarke off the telly waiting in the queue in Pret at Edinburgh Waverley!

Absolutely fantastic day yesterday watching the Six Nations at Murrayfield .. despite England’s poor result. An amazing experience 🏉🏟️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Back in the office today and the heating is not fixed and it’s like the arctic circle. Expecting a penguin and a polar bear to rock up!

Awful nights sleep including a horrible nightmare where I shouted out which woke me up. Too many things on my mind at the moment which I’m struggling to resolve.

The heating isn’t working in the office

Not the best view when working from home ☹️

Does anyone else have to sit with a blanket around their legs when they’re at work .. in the office

Dear Highways England .. whoever decided to close the M6 today with a diversion that not only had other roadworks but included driving through every county north of Staffordshire, I would like to kick you in the face very hard!!

Merry Christmas everyone 🎄

Flu and a chest infection wasn’t really what I had planned for the run up to Christmas 😷😷

Wish this flu would bugger off .. just when I thought I’d turned a corner, woke up with a raging sore throat 😫😫

Braving the shops to get the last few pressies. Flying solo as hubby is not well. Not doing too badly so far .. just have a coffee pit stop.

Today am doing my housework and playing some Christmas tunes. Been in tears twice already .. miss my Mom and Nan this time of year 😢😢

Well last night I had a lemon ginger and chamomile tea before bed and I’ve had 8hrs sleep!! Only got up once and went straight back to sleep 🙌

It’s black over Bill’s mothers

@andreatromans.bsky.social saw this in Sainsburys and thought of you

Just saw this on Instagram @ladykkaren.bsky.social

Just to confirm .. it is still October?? On the way to work this morning saw 2 houses with Christmas lights up 🙄🙄

So today the circus has ramped up the volume significantly so I’ve resorted to sitting with my headset on listening to Radio 3. Next week I will be looking at alternative desks!!

I don’t know whether I’m get leasing tolerant in my old age but the colleagues sat behind me are driving me crackers .. it’s a constant stream of film, comedy and TV quotes and jokes. Grrrrrrrr 😖😖

Not a bad view for Friday evening drinks 🥂🍺🇺🇸

Omg it’s 1st September and I’ve already seen the C word!!

What a lovely feeling .. Monday morning and no work 🎉🎉

Productive day .. eyebrows threaded, hair cut, toiletries bought .. DC here we come 🇺🇸

Would I be within my rights to not reply to emails from colleagues who don’t spell my name correctly??!!

Sitting in a restaurant having Sunday lunch next to a young girl and her grandad .. she is telling him what she’s having from Tiffany’s for her 21st and how’s she’s going to style her hair when she goes out next weekend. Totally adorable 🥰

Just heard the really sad news about #OzzyOsbourne .. total legend and a life long Brummie who never forget his roots. Rest in peace.

WFH does have its benefits esp when you’re not that busy

youtu.be/Y1oYx5vqYQU In honour of Black Country Day .. the Black Country poet.

So it’s nearly 30 degrees outside grass is like a bloody tinder box and some p***k over the back has got a bloody garden fire!

@andyburnham.bsky.social spent a lovely weekend in Manchester but thought I was back home in Wolverhampton when I saw how many taxis in the city had City of Wolverhampton Council taxi licence plates .. what’s going on?!

Judging by the reaction of some male colleagues .. women aren’t supposed to be knowledgeable about rugby let alone have an opinion!! They’ll be returning to Victorian Britain when they finish work at 5pm!!!!!

I’m not Rachel Reeves biggest fan but my heart went out to her having to sit in the Commons today when she was quite obviously extremely upset and in tears!

Omg I think everyone has left their brain at home today 🙄🙄

Just heard a neighbour shouting at her dogs who are constantly barking! One of her dogs is called Stephen 😂😂

It’s black over Bill’s mothers

Interesting to see there were less female competitors in the cheese rolling contest yesterday than there were men 🤔🤔

Little overnighter in Bath .. what a beautiful city.. particularly loved Bath Abbey

Unpleasant surprise when I went to take the bin out earlier .. a dead blue tit on the path .. he’d flown into the bedroom window and knocked himself out 🥹

Fantastic few days in Windsor .. now time for the second part of our week off .. trip to Liverpool to celebrate hubby’s birthday!

We don’t scrub up too badly.

Waking up this morning in beautiful Windsor. After a hellish journey yesterday today we will be celebrating my SIL’s OBE 🎉🍾🥂

Hubby is now up and about and trying out his new coffee machine .. it’s very complicated and I certainly won’t be giving it a try!

It’s not even 9am I’ve already meditated, sorted my wardrobe and completed a pile of ironing. Next is bathroom cleaning. Hubby is still snoring away in bed!
