Allan and Tec - your bravado doesn't fool me:-))

I'm off for the day folks. Good evening to our Pommie friends and have a good day Aussies. Talk later:-)

Tec - I don't need to look in the mirror to practice 'the look'. That's one thing I know that I'm GOOD at already!
My voice is good in the same way. After rearing four children - three of them boys - I have always been very good at saying "go to bed!". I would say it many times with each time raising the tone just one degree higher - only to be either totally ignored - or get an answer "in a minute".

Then - just one time more I would say it with what apparently was a slightly different tone (I could never see it, but they could) and they would all get up and go running in to their beds. Even the cat would come out of hiding and settle down as they were running past!

So Allan (and Tec too) just watch it while Sue's away!!!

Sue you are going to have to get the big stick out when you come back, I see the guy's are already thinking about what they are going to get up too and you haven't even gone yet.

Have a good day at the office Allan.

Brits - sleep well - don't stay up all night talking on here (it takes too long for us to catch up!)

Kiwis and Aussies - have a good day.

I'm off shopping - running short of a few things.

Have a good day Sue, if I have missed you.
We have been on cinema duty tonight,so I am just looking in before I grab some supper.

Tec and Allan, my "look" has been honed in over thirty five years of teaching. It could stop any truculent teenager in their tracks,so I don't think you two will be any trouble. Of course I am a bit out of practise, but I am sure it will soon come back.

Have a good day Allan, don't work too hard today,

Hi Diane, I had problems with my laptop yesterday, and day before. Very difficult to even get on line. I thought it was AOL messing about, but better now.

Hi Barbra......Summers coming........

Oh dear,everyone appears to have gone. Was it something I said?

It is cold here tonight Barbra, I could feel my cheeks getting very cold as we walked home. They would be the cheeks on my face before anyone makes any wise cracks

The film was Creation Tec, the story of Charles Darwin. The punters coming out seemed to have enjoyed it, but I didn't watch it, I did all the cashing up tonight.

Diane Report 3 Nov 2009 22:51

I don't know the film, but it sounds interesting.
Out of touch with films I'm afraid. Used to enjoy the film preview programme on tv, until Jonathon Ross started doing it, now can't bear to watch........

Sorry Diane, I didn't see you there, have just arrived as well, though am only popping in, I am off to get some supper and then it will be time for bed

Diane Report 3 Nov 2009 22:58

Hi Linda, one good thing about my job is I'm well in by the time the evening come's so I'm never out in the cold unless I go visiting friend's or family. You do the cinema voluntary don't you?

Diane

LindainHerriotCountry

LindainHerriotCountry Report 3 Nov 2009 23:01

Yes, everyone at the cinema is a volunteer. The daft thing is that we see far fewer films since we started volunteering than we did before. We have a pass so we can go any night, but I usually can't be bothered to go out again.

LindainHerriotCountry

LindainHerriotCountry Report 3 Nov 2009 23:02

Right i really am going,so I will catch up once again in the morning, goodnight everyone.

Goodnight Linda, You sleep well too, and keep warm, keep those cold feet off that poor man!!!
