Chris Head Posted July 21, 2006 Share Posted July 21, 2006 I think it's Friday? Surviving round one with the dentist & working for a really cool, stress free client.What made y'all feel good about the week?Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cassis Posted July 21, 2006 Share Posted July 21, 2006 Full house virtually all this week and next week and the week after - not sure if it's good or bad! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DZ Posted July 21, 2006 Share Posted July 21, 2006 What made me feel good about the week was knowing that next week (Wednesday) we are off to our house in France for 3 (THREE) whole weeks! Can't wait any longer. The down thing is that I won't be able to check the Forum postings for 3 weeks as well, but hey, I am going to be in France, so who cares!

Cassis Posted July 21, 2006 Share Posted July 21, 2006 No excuses, please. You could always spend the entire 3 weeks in an Internet café or library ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Smith Posted July 21, 2006 Share Posted July 21, 2006 Kids broke up today - just as well, 38 degrees in some classrooms. Off to France next Wednesday for 4 weeks, serious work to do, like sorting photographs (if I get round to buying an external hard drive) and other stuff. Some writing, some planning, all quite cool. Staff barbecue this afternoon, met some relatives of Cassis (the Tesco branch of the family), Julie at home today so she's getting dinner. No alcohol!

DZ Posted July 21, 2006 Share Posted July 21, 2006 [quote user="Cassis"]No excuses, please. You could always spend the entire 3 weeks in an Internet café or library ...[/quote]Tee-hee! I AM going to enquire about connecting us to a telephone line and perhaps getting an internet connection, but it is rather low down the line of priorities (for the start, we can't get hold of our nice French builder so we don't even know if we have a kitchen! But we can camp in la cave downsatairs, I don't care, live on baguettes and cheese [and wine, of course]!). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TWINKLE Posted July 21, 2006 Share Posted July 21, 2006 Have a lovely time Dick and davieszak - buy a huge fan it's very, very hot here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DZ Posted July 21, 2006 Share Posted July 21, 2006 Thank you, Twinkle. I intend to have a very good time in France. And as to the temperatures, it has been amazingly hot in London for the past few days too. Probably global warming but I have to admit I love it!

DZ Posted July 22, 2006 Share Posted July 22, 2006 Ali, we will be going by motorail, so won't have a chance of bumping into you, however I will definitely be thinking about you on my travels and keeping my fingers crossed that all goes well! I hope you will continue keeping us posted on this Forum as to how things develop. And, as I am reluctantly going back home in August, you will be staying in France for good, you lucky thing!Yours, green with envy, but wishing you all the very best!
