I agree Lindsay
Ice is not good!
I remember I was walking up the road into work once and managed to get nearly to the door when I slipped on a huge patch of ice. Just as one of my colleagues was driving past me!
Very embarrassing. And painful!

Why is falling over on ice always more painful (and embarrassing) than falling over normally?

It totally is!

But falling over while drunk is perfectly acceptable. o.O

I'm so cold I've made tea. x.x

Yes it is! :p

Hopefully it warms you up np!

I hope so. I think being out in the cold earlier this morning has meant it's got into my bones... as old people like to say. =P

Saying that, the cat is sitting on the radiator so it's not just me suffering!

I know that feeling!

Haha! If only humans could sit on radiators

I have a dilemma.
I found a dress I REALLY want but it's nearly £60 which I would usually NEVER spend on clothing! Because that's ridiculous.
But my nanny gave me £60 for Christmas. So would it be reasonable to buy it with my Christmas money or should I spend it on sensible things like bills and stuff?

Hm, that is a tricky one.

Gift money shouldn't be spent on bills... so that means you should buy something nice with it (and you deserve nice stuff, of course).

Thanks! That is true
I don't get much money to spend on myself usually so it would be nice to treat myself

You definitely deserve a treat.

Thanks lindsay :)

What's the dress like?

I posted a pic on my Facebook in the post asking the same question (I needed lots of opinions!)
I bough the dress :-D

Yay =D

I hope it doesn't take too long to arrive!
But I guess it will be a while because of new years.

I dunno, it could maybe ship on Saturday? If not Monday and that's not long.

True! The site said it's standard shipping

Probably end of next week then hopefully! =)

I need to go back out into the cold and dark... ='(

Hope so!

Oh no! :( Do you have to go out for long?

No, should be done fairly quickly but still. It's always really creepy being at work on my own in the dark as well.

Going to have some motivational biscuits first. >.>

Does sound very creepy!

Good plan!

Motivational biscuits, you could have a business opportunity there NP!

Motivational quotes on biscuits!

I think the cleaners were there at the same time. They were setting off security lights while I hid in the shadows.

You could be right there, Lindsay! Could make a fortune with some clever advertising. =P

Ooooooooh Beckie. =o

I was thinking more along the lines of loads of sugar but quotes work better. XD

Could have loads of sugar AND quotes!

This is like the improved version of fortune cookies.

Yes!!!!

The day staff came up with a plan to surprise the night staff with party poppers 5 minutes into handover. We’ve just pulled it off! It was hilarious

That's brilliant!

Haha, amazing =P

They roped you all in too?

Yep!
Most of the ward was in on it!

Meanies. =)

It was so funny!
The night staff found it funny too! Once they realised what was going on :p

Yeah that moment of confusion is always fun. >.>

Good job you didn't accidentally get one of those batches of party poppers that don't pop.

Haha! It was :p

Yeah that wouldn't have been as fun!

Probably would have been a good giggle, although the joke would have been on you instead!

Yep! Not as fun! :p

I'm going to bed now. Happy new year and all that rubbish! :)

Happy new year rubbish to you too =)

I'm about to fall asleep so will see midnight then zonk out.

Happy new year everyone x

Happy New Year Tamo, and everyone else. I hope this year brings you all good things.

Are you doing anything special today Tamo?

No more 2020, let's all pretend it never happened and move on to better things.

How's everyone?

No, nothing special, what about you?
Hi np how are you?

Cold and tired, the usual!

Hey guys

Howdy Beckie

Heelo!!

I did some more 3am shopping it seems. Snacks this time. I ordered jelly babies, peanut butter cups and fudge. Must have been hungry at the time!

I have such a sweet tooth, I would probably do the same.

At least it's not completely useless stuff!

Mmm fudge.
