Took me 4 hours to drink 2 cans, at least the other 2 are going to be freezing when I get home later,

Expecting a long day in work as I'm not that busy today. Still it's Friday so have the weekend to look forward to. My pint tonight will taste good.

Mother's Day is coming up (Sunday!). And since I can't get my mother's fav cookies over here (Sainsbury's Dark Chocolate & Ginger Cookies) and whoever is responsible for Duchy Originals' prices is crazy, I made stem ginger cookies this afternoon. And they're kinda awesome! ;D

Well done!
I failed to send my mum a card, too busy with work related stuff. I'm not a very good daughter, we're not even going to my parents on sunday; the reason's the same, my f***ing work. |

I sent my mom a package last thursday and it got there yesterday. Even with 2 bank holidays. Well done Royal Mail and Canada Post!
Sidenote, mail here is called post, but it is Royal MAIL. And home it is called the mail, but we have Canada POST.
explain. |

I'm bored, gonna head out and do some pub reviews for my facebook.
Btw on the post thing, when you post something in the Uk the moment it enters the system it no longer belongs to you or the addressee, it belongs to the Queen.

| Nice weather. Getting my hair cut today for the first time in 2 years. Rapunzel! Rapunzel! It's past time for a new 'do. Won't be going quite as short as Andrew did, though. |

Opening a letter/package not addressed to you personally carries a charge of "Interfereing with her majesty's personal mail"
