HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU ALL!!

Here it is......Lorraine's 40th Fancy Dress Party.....

What a night....

It was my work Christmas Party last night - sorry no photo's yet -I will try and get hold of some and then post them on here. As usual it was at The Petwood Hotel and as usual it was a formal black tie job for the lads and ball gown/cocktail dresses for the girlies. This year we had over 220 people. Fantastic night - lots of awards! (some going to our office - well done Jamie and Pete!!) - lovely meal - free flowing booze - no expense spared and everyone had a great time! Although, I imagine there are a few 'very' sore heads today (Chris being one!)

40th Fancy dress...invite...

Ooo now I'm excited, I've ordered my costume!
Oh sorry, forget to say - Sissy-in-Law is 40 on the 29th December!
She is having a fancy dress party! (as you can see from the blog we've had a few this year!)
The theme is Disney and cartoon characters! So off we went yesterday to the hire place, which was an Aladdin's Cave of goodies.
Anyway to cut a long story short, Chris is Scooby Doo! and I'm one of the 101 Dalmatians! Fab or what - and oh yes we look very silly.
Watch this space shortly after the 29th for evidence!!

Agony......!!

Ouch! I've done my back in!
I thought I would share this info with you all - just to see if I get any more sympathy, than seems to be available at home.
It's alright for them when they get 'man-flu'!!
I twisted by back last week and it had started to get better, then me being me - was a bit bored at work on Sunday (as everyone else was obviously Christmas shopping!) decided to move a few boxes!
OH YEAH REALLY BAD IDEA.
I'm back to square one - only it's even more painful this time.
