    Well we don't have a dedicated change management team either, but I cant even plug or unplug a cable while a freeze is in place so might just do a bit of tidying up in our DC or a storage room.. nothing better to be doing I suppose :o

    Ikea? Cheap and cheerful....
    Though I got one of the yokes with the canvas cover, can't remember what they're called- it's basically a shelving unit with a cover, for about 30 quid in Argos. It's taken a hell of a lot of weight and is perfect. Looks v neat and tidy too.

    Morning all- woke up with a stupid scratchy throat. If it doesn't eff off sharpish I will not be impressed :(

    That's the yoke TP-
    Put it together in ten mins, it's deceptively compact and takes a helluva lot of weight :D

    Drav- great idea, thanks :D

    I'm going to blame it on a delayed hangover I suppose. Slept from about 6-11am yesterday morning, then about 2-4 in the afternoon then got about 10 hours last night.

    Suits me fine, have no money and am unlikely to be heading out for NYE so the fewer waking hours til Tuesday the better as far as I'm concerned. :pac:

    Still moving.. dont have to be out of my old place until tomorrow, so will finish moving stuff tonight hopefully and then spend the day cleaning the old place and give the new place a bit of a clean too, just bring it up to standard :D

    Looking for additional storage now as there is no where near enough at the moment, so thats first on my priority list and then I can start clearing through the rubbish I have built up over the years and do a major clear out of old clothes, IT bits n pieces, shred old documents and start sorting my music and photos too..

    January is going to be such an interesting month :pac:

    Way back I used to reorganise my books and the like (and sometimes my whole room) about every month or so, there was something therapeutic about it somehow. Not of that these days though. :pac:

    Sorry to butt in here but I just heard "Champagne Showers"....
    Are these gimps for real? Seriously like, what are they on about?
    If someone poured champagne all over me, they'd have one angry sticky girl to deal with.
    *waits for innuendo showers...

    Not so much a fan of the actually doing but love the feeling of having it all done. So I just focus on the end result and it usually gets me through it :D

    I suppose there's a time and place for it. Bit expensive though.

    I imagine I'd like it more than cleaning/tidying as it shouldn't leave my back feeling like a bag of mince.

    I can cook OK-ish. Only thing I've ever messed up to the point of being "bad" was when I undercooked some rice but only notice after it had been filled out and mixed around a bit. :pac:
    At a party last year a mate decided to cook for about 30 people after someone had suggested takeaway. A pot of curry doesn't go quite that far. :pac: Also it took him a coupla hours which was quite annoying. :pac:

    ****sake, why is it that pranks cause way more hassle than when one actually tries to cause loads of hassle? :pac: Set something in motion last night and expected it to last a coupla days when I'd let the victim know before anything could happen, instead it all happened before 1 o'clock today and the hassle has all happened already. :pac:

    Won't get into the complexities of who's who but a mate got with a girl the other night who had a boyfriend at the time. They were getting on well so last night I sent him a slightly threatening text from a new number :pac: The idea was that another friend was there so could make sure if he was getting worried he'd tell him it was just me. Nothing happened though til today when it got back to me that he apparently went straight to yer one. :pac: Also my best mate is with her sister so it's all a bit complicated. :pac:

    It was meant to be a joke! Thought I had it all covered so that it wouldn't escalate but I was wrong! :pac:
