Went for a walk when the rain stopped but it started pissing rain again and was blustery as ****. Still good to get out of the house though. Listening to an audio book now.

Deskside, just finishing up work for the day.

First day back and I'm already ready to throw in the towel. Remote work or not, I think they should bring back flogging for some of my colleagues!

My first post from my new phone. I have the exact same model in its box useless to me because the provider I got it from refused to port my data onto the new sim without me being physically present. They blatantly lied when Mr Sardi asked if it would be a case of simply taking g my sim out of my old phone and putting in onto the new one (it isnt) and refused to take back the phone (unused) and refund my money. So I'll be onto ComReg tomorrow to start the battle for my money back. Very happy with the service from my new provider. Very obliging and a good price on the phone.

I can officially announce that all the Christmas pressie shopping has been completed on time and within budget. I would like to thank all involved in this endeavor. Amazon, Smyths Toy Stores, Lightinabox, Tesco's and even Dealz. Let's not forget all the great people in FedEx, DPD, DHL and An Post who get it to you.

Job done.:D

You guys get virtual gifts so its anything you want.:D

Due to Covid and out of work issues, I'm really delighted that we managed to get things sorted. We got Ms Gs big pressie in June and explained why. (a new laptop) But she still managed to get stuck in with a so called stocking filler list. Hence FedEx.:eek: Thankfully it was all manageable. Ms Gs remaining grand parents are looked after too along with her generous step brother who pays it back in folds.:D Small token gifts for me and Mrs G. Always a small list anyway.

Well if we're choosing our own secret santas, not keeping it secret AND telling them what we're getting them..

I bought a 1000 litres in April when the price was on the floor. Threw another 400 in last week that cost €200. I'd say we are good to go over Christmas at full tilt. after the dip I did. Who knows after that.:mad:

I'm like you , it's so much easier to give , and that feeling you get when you know they appreciate it and the thoughts that went into selecting it for them
(I think we think we're not worthy , and get embarrassed )

May order more firewood this week , try stock back up the shed a bit , it's getting scarily low again .

I much prefer the buzz of giving a present than receiving. The best are when you surprise someone with an unexpected one

Heading bedside, got 2 hours sleep in the end last night.
Busy day at work. Knackered.
