    How to cure minor depression…

    Yesterday was Trish’s birthday, so I arranged to go for a couple of drinks with her and Harriett. And so, there we were, sat outside the Priory in the glorious sunshine, drinking our drinks (pint of Stella for me, ‘Woo-woos’ for the ladies), chatting away and Trish mentioned the sex education series that’s recently been shown on TV over here. Not being a big TV watcher, I listened with a smile to her describing the show (well, she dwelt on the pensioners being naked and extreme close-ups.

Made it into work by 7.45 though – I rock! I’m not old – I’m saving energy… 😉

    What a great weekend

    It was my birthday yesterday – I’ve reached the ripe old age of 39 😯 Had a really good weekend though – and I didn;t even get so drunk I couldn’t talk, just had a couple of beers Friday (had to take Harriett’s car to get new tyres Saturday morning so didn’t want to be hungover), watched the game Saturday afternoon (it would have been so good if Spurs had beaten Arsenal – what a birthday present that would have been 😥 ), met up with some friends in the evening and got quite tipsy, not too much though, I […]
