Don't drink champagne on an empty stomach!!

So a lovely eveing planned with Sandie, one of my dearest friends. A good gossip over a good meal and an even better bottle of wine.

Hitch number one - no food since lunchtime.
Hitch number two - no seats available in the restaurant till 9.30pm.
Hitch number three - I drank too much champagne too quickly on a far too empty stomach!

Arrived at the restaurant only to realise I felt a litttle tipsy - well shit faced actually but tipsy sounds better. After ordering a diet coke ( the shame!) I located the ladies room just in time to lose the champagne orally into the afore mentioned toilet bowl - bugger.

On the plus side, after a couple more visits to the ladies room I felt much better and enjoyed a fantastic steak. If you get the chance to go to Becketts Bistro in Southsea I thoroughly reccomend it! Sandie and I managed to talk about crap all night and had a really lovely evening - in the end. A reminder of the incident however is a bruise on my nose :( I think I slipped and nose butted the toilet - ouchie. One day I will learn, but until then I will just have to laugh instead!

Be warned kids - it might be funny but it sure aint clever! x x

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!

Huzzah for the white stuff. 2 whole inches and the world goes mad. After managing 25 miles to work - and Jane if you are reading this mwahahaha!- i managed the journey in only 40 minutes ready to face the kidlets. In the carpark the snow was crisp and untouched. for atlest 2 seconds. Bags dumped in reception i headed out to make a fab pair of snow angels.

following a brief organisation of planning and the neccesary stuff i commandeered breakfast club to build a snow man with me. The consensus was it is much easier in animal crossing than in real life ;p

How many lessons could i blag outside - many and the kids did me proud with some of their poems. Following more snowball fights, snow angel shennanigans and general tomfoolery i was sent home early - YAY the benefit of living outside catchment.

Currently am cavorting around the garden doing a bizzare snow dance so i get tomorrow off too!!!!
Although don't fear, i am a dedicated individual and have bought work home. (At least 1/2 and hours worth XD)

Two inches of snow - who'd of thought such chaos would ensue!!!!!
