I been abandoned, husband is at the pub, it's hammering it down outside so I decided to stay in. I'm eating carrot sticks because the hummus I bought earlier doesn't taste very nice and drinking red wine. I am officially bored and have run out of videos on youtube. pah.

You lot?

Going round a mates house soon to play some video games and have some beers 🙂 I'm having a good day so far, still buzzing from a really good interview I had earlier where the guy basically said I'd have the job so long as the last guy they interview doesn't have more experience than me!

ick, that would drive me mad to MC, presume he's plod too?

Seriously I really am incredibly bored. I did think I might tidy the house because it's a complete tip but I got the wine open waaaay to soon 🙄

My hot water bottle always ends up being kicked out of bed in the middle of the night 🙂

I have a tigger hot water bottle, I am known for loving my bottle 🙂

Also, seeing as I'm amongst virtual friends, I'm going to confide something along the same vein as kicking the water bottle out of bed. I wear pants in bed, don't know why, I just do but the last week I've been taking them off in my sleep then getting back into bed. Been caught taking them off three times now and woken up with them gone for the other four times. Normally find them at the side of the bed but this morning found them in the bathroom! I don't remember taking them off. Wonder if it's a stress thing. Had to get it off my chest thought, it's not really something I can discuss with RL people ! Anyone else done this or weird things in their sleep?

Emma82 yup he is! Oh and I can't open the wine as I am on call ALL weekend .... man what a rubbish weekend! I hope it's ddry tomorrow so I can at least go to bonfire night (pending work not being busy). Sigh sometimes this work thing really interferes with my social life!!

Oh and can't believe you fessed up about the pant thing! Scary ... are you even sure it's YOU that is taking them off ..wht about Mr Emma82.....does he have wondering midnight hands?

Ha ha Rachel is blushing love it!! If you have an iphone you could try that sleep talking app that everyone has been going on about it and listen back to it in the morning to see what gobbledook you talked about .. .oh and then share it on here so we can all have a good laugh and not be bored. I would but I don't have an iphone, not sure if there is similar app on Android market (oh and I'm too lazy to look!).

Lol I don't think he has wandering midnight hands, he's not that subtle if he was after *that* he'd probably just shake me and say, 'wake up!' rather than pull my pants down and whatever.... 😳

I can't sleep without pants on LG - I feel naked! Well, I am naked but it's weird I don't like it 🙄

I can't sleep naked when I'm in the bed on my own, but I think that's a temperature thing, ie it's blinking freezing in a King size bed on my own so the jimjamaroo's have to go on, Mr MC gets home warms the bed up jimjam's come off! weird us women hey!!!!

Know exactly what you mean about the feel naked thing - it's difficult to explain but 'before' it never used to bother me and was the default option but in the last two years I always wear PJs*.

*well, assuming I'm there to sleep, you understand...

Bored too.

Busted up my ankle, so not been out on my bike for over 3 weeks now so apart from hobble into work and home, I've done sod all recently. This evening, just to mock my lack of being able to do something useful my internet connection isn't fast enoughto play battlefield 3 online. So I am officially bored.

I might have crack open the beers at this rate and watch whatever passes for entertainment on the TV. 🙁

Huuuge t-shirt in bed for me - unless I get lucky and have company. 😀
It's been a huge t-shirt for a couple of years or more. 😥

Edit: And no knickers 🙂

Mr82 sleeps in the nude, he reckons he gets sweaty testicles otherwise. I tend to just wear pants though rather than PJs.

Naked sleeper here, can't abide wearing anything in bed.

Trouble is, my daughters are now 12 and 9, and if they happen to witness me stumbling to the bathroom au naturel I get shrieks of "disturbing!".

I'm under pressure to wear boxers to bed. Harumph.

Both Me and Mrs V used to sleep 'wi nowt on' in the eraly days of marriage,(ah sigh) but getting up to the kids etc the Mrs has defaulted to PJ's or a nightshirty type thing (ie big T shirt). Me, I still dont like PJ's when I wear them, if the eldest has mates stopping over, then they feel too restrictive, just like Mr82.

But I can't be walking round with the 'old man hanging out' with 16 yr old girls in the house. 😳

Solution for boredom, more red wine and bike parts shopping! Seriously wondering what's going to be delivered next week if I drink much more 😆

Re the hot water bottle, I've still got the windows open in mid Scotland and am warm at night, to anyone using hot water bottles while it's still so mild, what are you going to use when it gets seriously cold?????

i was an aircraft engineer but just over a year ago got offered a small engineering and evironmental sciences tech role with Benthic solutions since then iv'e been doing Geochem, evironmetal surveys among other things as well as 3D seismic and inshore and offshore projects seems my boss is trying to find my limits so far the only part i hate is MMO'ing marine mammal observing is very taxing though bordem.

Just seems the more i do the more boss wants me to do im not gonna complain about that as its nice doing loads of differn't roles on some of the projects and when i am back at the office its nice as i built the office and decking area 😆

too the the lad above i wish it was that warm here got -15 degrees wish i had a bottle of wine i mean hot water bottle 😆

Mrs V has invested in a double leccy blanket for our bed, not too sure about it as we live in a modern 4 bed house, but it takes the chill away apprently.

We do have novelty hot water bottles for the mother in laws static caravan though. Kids love em when it's cold.

I can't sleep with pants on either. They've got to come off.

Causes problems when I'm not staying at home, like if I'm in a chalet shared with others at a popular New Forest based mountain biking, beer and music festival what takes place in August. 😳

Used to fall asleep on a big sofa in front of the telly in the living room of a shared place I lived in a few years ago. My flatmates weren't happy to find my pants on the living room floor in the morning. Did give one of the lasses a fright one night when she came in late from work one night. 😀

I live on my own now. It's probbly for the best.

Thank you C_G!

A cheque for 25 pounds, a mini plaque thing and a DVD containing all of the little videos showing the other winners' gardens. It was hosted over in the Burgh Halls in Linlithgow 🙂

Unfortunately my wife could not be with me, but I had my eldest daughter with me and it was a good do (first time out on a Friday for ages as well, shame I was driving, bah! 😉 )

I hope your neighbour does well.

I entered the competition once before 3 years ago when I was having my troubles and won one of the categories then and it was a great boost for me. Fingers crossed your neighbour gets the same boost as well 🙂

Thanks again.

I was unsure whether or not she would like to come along with me (she is 12 years old), but when my wife broached the subject to her she agreed straight away 🙂

She has always been a Daddy's girl and I think that something like this evening reinforces it PLUS I was quite chuffed to have her come along with me.

He's just chuffed to be considered for a prize tbh. He only entered for a laugh, never expected to get anywhere. Proper brightens up the building up actually.

There's simply no need for that DD. I don't want to know how that happened. 😐
