Here is todays ickle story, hope you enjoy....

A crow was sitting on a tree, doing nothing all day. A small rabbit saw the crow, and asked him, "Can I also sit like you and do nothing all day long?" The crow answered, "Sure, why not." So, the rabbit sat on the ground below the crow, and rested. All of a sudden a fox appeared, jumped on the rabbit and ate it.

Moral of the story:
To be sitting and doing nothing, you must be sitting very, very high up.

Well what a day its been, busy busy busy, not stopped.....

Loosing an hour....

We watched Love Actually on Saturday night which was really funny in places and really sloppy in others, overall it was a really enjoyable romantic comedy. We started watching In America but found it hard going because it was getting late and we were tired so we stopped it half way through before we both fell asleep.

We overlaid on Sunday morning, then when we got downstairs and realized we'd overlaid an hour longer than we thought we had due to the clocks going forward an hour for British Summertime. So we sacked the kitchen again and went off to Dads's for an hour, Lucy always loves to go there but is still not too fond of travelling in the car.

In the afternoon we watched the rest of In America, which we still could not get into properly and by the end we didn't really know what was going on. There wasn't much on telly for a Sunday night, but Born and Bread came to the rescue which is always a good laugh and then we watched this new drama Passer By which is basically about a man (James Nesbit) who witnesses a woman being harassed on a train but doesn't really do anything about it, then later it transpires that the woman was raped after he got off the train. It really is a thought provoking drama and we'll be tuning in tonight for part two.

Here is todays ickle story.....

A sales rep, an administration clerk and the manager are walking to lunch when they find an antique oil lamp. They rub it and a Genie comes out in a puff of smoke. The Genie says, "I usually only grant three wishes, so I'll give each of you just one." "Me first! Me first!" says the admin clerk. "I want to be in the Bahamas, driving a speedboat, without a care in the world." Poof! She's gone. In astonishment, "Me next! Me next!" says the sales rep. "I want to be in Hawaii, relaxing on the beach with my personal masseuse, an Endless supply of pina coladas and the love of my life." Poof! He's gone. "OK, you're up," the Genie says to the manager. The manager says, "I want those two back in the office after lunch."

Moral of the story:
Always let your boss have the first say.

...lol....i like this one the most....

Bob The Builder

We’ve got one whole wall done in the kitchen with the tongue and groove. I thought putting laminate flooring down last summer was hard but this doesn’t half take it out of you, even if I did only spend about 4 hours on it today. I’ll crack on again with it tomorrow and see if I can do another wall, although the other 3 walls have got obstacles in the way so there’s going to be a lot of cutting out to be done and there will probably be some swearing and downing of tools while I find something to kick.

We’ve been and got supplies ......... tiger beer, vodka, gin and cointreau. We love cointreau with lemonade, it like drinking pop and doesn’t seem to result in a hangover in the morning.

Our Ghost Ship dvd threw a wobbly half way through when we tried it last night, so we took it back to the shop today. We got that exchanged and also rented In America and Love Actually to watch tonight instead of the rubbish on TV.

Here is today Quote or should we say funny ickle story....

A priest was driving along and saw a nun on the side of the road. He stopped and offered her a lift which she accepted. She got in and crossed her legs, forcing her gown to open and reveal a sexy leg. The priest had a look and nearly had an accident. After controlling the car, he stealthily slid his hand up her leg. The nun looked at him and immediately said, "Father, remember Psalm 129?" The priest was flustered and apologized profusely. He forced himself to remove his hand. Changing gear, he let his hand slide up her leg again. The nun once again said, "Father, remember Psalm 129?" Once again the priest apologized "Sorry sister but the flesh is weak." Arriving at the convent, the nun got out gave him a meaningful glance and went on her way. On his arrival at the church, the priest rushed to retrieve a bible and looked up Psalm 129.It Said, "Go forth and seek. Further up, you will find glory."

Moral of the story:
If you are not well informed in your job, you might miss a great opportunity.

Paul is busy doing the kitchen today and we are not stopping till its finished.......this could be one long day....lol....

Will take some piccies when its all done and looking lovely...

Debbies Quote of the day......

A man is getting into the shower just as his wife is finishing up her shower when the doorbell rings. After a few seconds of arguing over which one should go and answer the doorbell, the wife gives up, quickly wraps herself up in a towel and runs downstairs. When she opens the door, there stands Bob, the next door neighbor. Before she says a word,
Bob says, "I'll give you $800 to drop that towel that you have on" After thinking for a moment, the woman drops her towel and stands naked in front of Bob. After a few seconds, Bob hands her 800 dollars and leaves.
Confused, but excited about her good fortune, the woman wraps back up in the towel and goes back upstairs. When she gets back to the bathroom, her husband asks from the shower, "Who was that?" "It was Bob the next door neighbor," she replies. "Great!" the husband says, "Did he say anything about the $800 he owes me?"

Moral of the story:
If you share critical information pertaining to credit and risk with your shareholders in time, you may be in a position to prevent avoidable exposure.

Here endeth the lesson...lol...

Thought I had better add something as Paul is doing a daily report....

Car Wash

We took Debbie's car to the car wash last night, we hoovered the car first, I was doing my best with the length of hose available while Debbie was supervising. It wouldn't reach the boot at all so she turned the car round while waved the hose around in the air like an idiot. We decided it was too cold for a jet wash so I was sent back inside the garage for a token for the proper car wash. I got the token along with a large yorkie I hadn't asked for (chocolate, not a small dog), it appears there is an offer on at the moment, buy a car wash token and get a free yorkie. It's always great when you get something for free that you weren't expecting and just a little bit suspicious.

Puff The Magic Dragon

Wednesday night on TV has been lacking lately but a new series started last night called Dragons Alive and looked like it was worth watching, especially as Debbie loves anything to do with dragons. Last night's instalment was all about the larger predator reptiles like, crocodiles, turtles, snakes and the 'not to be messed with' komodo dragon. It was thoroughly enjoyable and informative, we'll certainly be tuning in again next week.

Spring is in the air....

Well the dust was last night.. We managed to spring clean the living room, it only took us an hour and it's looking much nicer now. We must have had more candles than your average candle shop dotted about all over the place. We just keep buying them even though we ran out of space for them ages ago. After a nice meal and a glass of Bicardi & Coke, we walked Lucy down to our local shop and got another bottle of Bicardi. We were very good though, only had one more glass and then retired upstairs to watch Brat Camp which has been interesting to watch over the last couple of weeks. I wonder if we could send Misty, our grumpy cat.

Sunshine & Showers

What a lovely day here in Yorkshire, the sun is shining, the air is crisp with a gentle breeze.... and a birds just shit on my car. I'm sure the pigeons round here are sponsored by Turtle Wax. It's certainly got quite a bit colder over the last couple of days, the weather forecast even mentions snow for some higher parts today but seeing as we don't live half way up a mountain I don't think we'll see any here.
