tarotangel Posted December 15, 2007 Report Share Posted December 15, 2007 Meeee!!!! Sorry I'm getting all excited now. We're on the boat on Tuesday night and apart from deciding where to leave the car in Aberdeen we're all set. I can't wait until I move back home for for good. I'll calm down now. Anyone else heading home? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sassermaet Posted December 15, 2007 Report Share Posted December 15, 2007 Umm...I hope so! Trouble is, I told my boss I was going home for the festive season and she put me down to work on Boxing Day Not impressed. sausage it, I'm going anyway. Ferry and train have long since been booked, and I told her three times I wasn't going to be here, so no steam off my sh*te. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tarotangel Posted December 16, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2007 Why do bosses manage to sausage up rota's so badly? I think they do it deliberately at times. We're planning quite a few drams while we're up. The first one is Thursday night to go and watch the Dons. Brother says it will probably be Posers as I'll hae me wheelchair wi me.

Ally Posted December 17, 2007 Report Share Posted December 17, 2007 Would love to be home for Xmas, but will be in Brisbane instead, where the temperature is around 35 degrees. Sounds fun I know, but not exactly festive... would rather be in da lounge/flints/posers on xmas eve than sweltering away here, but nivir leet... New Year, on the other hand, will be spent in Sydney, which is preferable to da cross methinks... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
