@goddess Jasmine I may have an old copy of Eat, Shoots & Leaves in the bookcase. I’m in the middle of sorting the bookcases out as we are decorating. Would you like me to check to see if I still have it? I can post it along to you if you’d like it (or did you need it specifically for this weekend?)

Thank you lovely, that's very kind but I do need it ASAP. I've ordered one that should be here tomorrow. :luv:

To be fair I've done my share of 13hr days this week so I was very keen to get it on as soon as things quietened down yesterday (and apparently despite it being on I've already dealt with a couple of bits this morning.... not that I have problems switching off or anything :S )

@Joans I can't remember if Jazzy and I talked about stocking up on coffee etc (just remember the practical bits). I don't mind getting some but don't want to buy if you guys have sorted that?

Not sure about stocked up, we'll bring the cafetiere, grinder and some beans as usual, but it probably won't be enough to satisfy everyone's coffee urges so a big tub of instant is probably a good idea.
I don't think we've got anything else communal (other than some Costco snacks), so anything else you can think of, we probably need.

OK no worries, we'll get some from the asdas. Thank yoooou!

On a more personal note, I've had a bit of a sniffle since my flu jab on Tuesday. I don't think I'm ill as I feel well in myself, but I've taken an LFT as a precaution that has come up negative. Nonetheless, I'll understand if people don't want hugs anyway (especially as I gave people actual colds last year :S ).

Good news ... the place isn't filled with gas this year.
Also good news... the kitchen is new and shiny


Disconcerting news. There's a lady in a parka looming silently around the place.
