Day 7 - still no ciggies!!! :lol:
Bit of a weird mix this blog.
OK still no ciggies- no blips- bar Thursday night when I left work at 630pm instead of 4pm due to workload. No bus home- only the word "delay". So decided rather than run to Spar for "10 Richmond" and a lighter- I power walked home.
Friday at work- manic ( darn Traffic Management Act 2004 changes on 31 March)- will explain on tomorrows blog!
Today. Got new caravan. Again will explain tomorrow!
But internet update........
I have had a nasty bug for a couple of weeks but this week it's got worse and worse. So I'm off work- feeling guilty but hey.
and I still only get 6 letter words on Countdown. :blush:
Day 4. Still going strong.
Work busy, but only as member of staff off sick - so team of 9 was down to, well me and Gay my temp.
So did well -no fags no cravings just worked hard. And yes had 2 pints after work as a treat tonight.
So now got through half the week - fingers crossed- have we broke it?
OK- a another new noval thing. A Sunday morning lie in.
So lie until 10am.Then another old friend rediscovered- "Something for the Weekend" on BBC2 at 10am. A perfect TV programme for a Sunday morning in your dressing gown with the Sunday Times (me) and the News of the World (Darren and me secretly )
Then a nice fry up breakfast, followed by taking the dogs for a long walk around Saltram House estate (National Trust) here in Plymouth on a cold crisp dry day with some sunny periods. Home to
I am 34. Some friends have commented "you made it". One added "just"

Peter Kay Book
Michael Palin Book
Video I Pod (for the bus to work to play my TV clips) (Note I may work in parking but even I think £29 per month on the bus is stonking value for money compared to £4 per day :unsure: )
Socks
New tie (Red and Black -
I will never go to Asda 2 days before Christmas every again.
Unless it's for a bottle of Baileys or similar Irish Cream drink which makes you feel rather mellow after one glass.
I have to work tomorrow. This could be interesting. I still have red wine!
Christmas is looking goooooooooood
Today I have spent the day producing 200+ resident parking only permits for residents of Plymouth.
Following events in Southway- that seems and is totally pointless.

My thoughts are with the parents of the girl killed today.
It's been really busy at work today- lots going on,and I knew I was going to be late. So I rang home with a order to Darren
"I want burger and chips for tea (comfort food) and I fancy a glass of wine (for glass read bottle)"
The thing is it's January and 5 1/2 weeks since payday and still 1 week to go. Bless him the burger and chips not a problem (well we are all chavs on occasions ). But the wine. More tricky.
So As I type this- thanks to the £2.67 found down the back of the sofa is a love
Firstly we are not Chav's, but my Mum decided to put the chip pan on by mistake when cooking the veg yesterday. Hence it caught fire between the starter and the turkey.

My mum later claimed she didn't want bath salts but
