**Bar's Open**

YAYYYYYYYYY PARRTYYYYY!! ?️??

Afternoon ladies, large cava please, busy getting ready for my elf party tomorrow and thought i'd pop in for a quick one?

Oooh congrats nona! ??

I`ll have a large white wine please! I`ve sent everyone home early (only so I can go home early, obviously).

whats everyone`s plans for the weekend?

Oooo doing me sums and drinking champers and dreaming about new housies! My pals decided to get me wellies for my christmas; ideal for the country bumpkin cottage look (if we get it!)

Me and H are driving to my parents house in Portsmouth for Chrimble!!!! Yeay......first married Christmas - tried to gloss over the fact that I'm spending with my parents. Oh and the 8 hour drive of course!

Congrats on the flat sale!

I would like a glass bottle of rose please.. I've been at work all morning and afternoon, ive got 2 hours off and then back for the evening shift at 6-2.30am!! Maybe if i drink the whole bottle i will be sent home for being drunk behind a bar! Not in front of it! Damn me being a poor student so working every day all day during the holidays!

Oh man, im glad I dont have to work holidays anymore..... hope its not too horrible a night for ya spink!

Congrats teehee, fantastic news!!!!!!!!!

have a fab time-drive carefully! god it doesnt feel like its only a few days to christmas-maybe its cos our weddings were so close to it

Am about to go and brave Oxford Circus to do the last of my Xmas shopping.

Dutch courage please (tequila will do)

Nona, many many congrats!!!!

Nona that's brilliant news!!! I'm so so so happy for you!

And there's champagne in the fridge, so I could join you in a glass! Not literally you understand - but you know what I mean!

Whoooo hoooooo!

xxxxx

Thanks girls, ive whinged about it for 3 weeks now it is only fair i celebrate it with you. LOL. Now I am a wee bit more prepared for buying our next place.. one step at a time. Wonder how the couple are feeling? They might be sitting in the middle of the empty lounge right now drinking the bubbly I left them!

All i have to do now is a)wait for the damn letter to arrive so i get my 150 back and b) hold my breath for 5 days to ensure they dont find any faults with the gas or electrics. Or I'm really screwed. keep everything crossed!!!

WELL DONE TeeHee

thats brilliant news! Enjoy the champers ?

I'd like a bucket of vodka please, straight up. This day has DRAGGED.

Chin chin

Congratulations Nona!! Good news for a change.

You left them bubbly?

That's such a sweet gesture!

I left wine at my last house and the bloke was a right bugger and caused no end of hassle as we were late moving out as the money got held up! Wish I'd not left anything now!

And when I got to the new house - it had been empty for three months and all that was left was the heating on full blast!! So all I got was an irate letter from British Gas trying to make me pay them loads of money!

LOL!

Evenin' all

I'm slobbing on the sofa, surrounded by snot rags tissues ☹️

I'm bored of having a cold. I've not been ill enough to be off work, but I did manage to leave early today. Went home via Oxford Street (carnage!)

Now waiting for H to come home so we can order a takeaway.

Good news on the flat Nona ?

Well a bottle of cava brut in a nice xmassy bottle bag with card and a folder filled with instructions etc - the most important 'how to turn on your boiler' so they can get the heating on! I took my readings last sunday. I have no idea when they are moving in, they will be lucky to get in before xmas day but i hope they do...

looking forward to OH getting home coz im hungry and want a cuddle of joy!

Congratulations Teehee, nice bit of news before Christmas!

I'm having a glass of cava to celebrate, working all over christmas, so not too many!!!?

Congrats Teehee x

Just having a vodka or two, I have to work over xmas too :-(

Congrats Nona!

great news for Crimbo!

Can I have a pint of Scrumpy please?

Yay nonaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! that's great news, i'm so glad it all got sorted before christmas. when we moved into our first flat, we were left an old coffee machine - we thought it was quite sweet til we realised it was broken...

well i spent this afternoon 'working from home' i.e. wrapping my christmas pressies. now sat here with glass of pear cider and tub of phish food, looking forward to tomorrow as it's my birthday tomorrow!!! yay!

Oh happy birthday for tomorrow Bluewater. (if I remember rightly you're the same age as me!?!)

Think I need a stiff drink, my OH is on his 3rd episode of ice road truckers!!

H2b is watching a sky+ episode of the colin stagg programme from last night so i am just concentrating on my phish food and bulmer's!

am 29 tomorrow - think i will have a big party for my 30th! will give me something to organise post-wedding!

Yeah I'm planning on having a big party with 2 of my best friends because we're all 30 within a week of each other. But that won't be until May 2010. But that was our thought that it will be something else to plan (we've all got/getting married within 2 years).

OH is now watching death machines...it's not very nice.

And I'm very jealous that you have phish food, that is my fav!!

Oh to be 30 again!!!!!

you young things you! Have a wonderful birthday Blue - hope its a good one! I've just had salmon on a bed of salad leaves... Is salmon fattening? we havent opened the champers yet!! but we will.....

oh what to do this weekend.....

Sometimes I feel 48 not 28 having a 12 year old daughter. Safe to say times have changed even since I was her age!!

no tis very healthy! especially when on a bed of salad... i wouldn't worry it's nowhere near as fattening as phish food.

i *really* need to start thinking about my diet - first dress fitting on the 3rd june....

My stomachs got really bad in the last month, I have gone from '4 months pregs to 6 months'... and when I sit I look like Homer..... fed up with it. Really got to do something, Ive never been this big in my life!

oooo on the champagne, its an 8 yr old bottle!! wooooop..

Ooooh i really fancy some champagne! but i couldn't finish off a whole bottle on my own tonight so think will stick with the bulmers.

you got anything nice sorted for the hodilays? ?

Nothing nice no...... (im very giggly squiggly and me thinks he is toooooo, darn champoo)

hes having to work and we dont really do anything over the festive season. Ive got to revise for my theory test and hazard perception wich takes places on the 10th january and ive to write lessons for the new term. prolly have pissed off the HT at one fo the schools coz I emailed for a timetable and didnt get one.......

want an after 8 mint?? hic.

Mmm don't mind if i do!!! <takes 3 hoping thycg doesn't notice....>

h2b did his theory a few weeks ago - failed the first time on the hazard perception bit but passed second time round. he got the question bit ok, but it was a bit hit and miss with the hazard bit - wasn't too sure if he was clicking too fast or too slow. but he got there - just need him to pass the actual driving bit now...!
