Fed Up!

  • Not been posting much lately because I'm feeling fed up and wrestless. Yes.... I'm back in the "nothing wil entertain me" mood. I can imagine myself as some fabled medivel queen who had her jesters beheaded for not being funny enough.....
  • Also I have had a lot of work on, and being at MM yesterday just screwed my mood up even further.
  • On Monday I had more converstation with the nice people at Ziterdes and have agreed with them to sort out an order so that my poor waiting customer can actually get his stock at long long last! It was hopefully sorted out yesterday but I am still to see the money leave my account. I wont be totally happy until the money ispaid and my customer has his order.
  • One thing that did make me smile though was this last email I got from them:

Hi Charlie,
Attached please find the Invoice.
That’s the amount we would charge you with … waiting for your “o.k.”!

….and …. one question:
On the CC detail it says “Miss C. Oakes” …. so you are Miss ??
Is Charlie your Nickname?

With best regards Stephan

  • Hee hee hee! I still find it funny that people online think I'm a MAN!
  • I ended up doing a full day at MM again yesterday. I didn't want to, but I had feeling that was how it was going to go so I had paid for a full days parking just in case. FB was there! For all the morning and a good chunk of the afternoon. Although I have to say she was suprisingly nice and friendly with me. Not going to knock it. And she is easier to be around the the bullying witch SB. At least she doesn't pretend to be smarter or better than other people. She even complimented me on my weight loss......
  • She cleared out the whole of the stock room, cleaned it, and reorganised it! It actually LOOKS like a stock room now and not a tip. So maybe her being there wasn't cuch a bad thing.
  • It was bossman who wound me up.
  • He's desided that we should be selling second hand console games on the web site. And not only that, but the games that are for sale in the SHOP - the actual same games! Now for one, second hand games hardly ever sell off the web site. That's what ebay's there for! Secondly, selling the same game in two places is just asking for trouble. Bossman's solution? For me to teach other staff memebrs how to use dreamweaver and edit the site.
  • NO CHANCE!
  • There is no way in hell that I am giving my job to someone else, espcially as no one else who is capable of doing the job actually wants to do it. Between us me and D managed to come to a compramise with bossman. I'll sell the games, but I'm the only one who edits the site. At the end of every day the people inthe shop emailme a list of what they have sold, and I spend 10 mins of my evening adjusting the site accordingly. OK, it's a pain, but damned if I'm handing over the web site just because bossman's had a dumb idea!

  • On top of that he had me counting and cataloging a ton of crappy mobile phone equipment which will NEVER sell! I put it all on ebay for 99p for the lot a year and a half ago and there wasn't a single bid on it! So I had to waist 3.5 hours tapping it all into the computer for him to do nothing with - again!

  • Very very pissed off with the whole thing!

Wedding List.... (OMG)

A new kitchen.... Really! We need one! So I've been saying to people that we'll want either B&Q or Ikea vouchers... Only I can't say which yet because I haven't choosen which one I like best: B&Q Oak Shaker style: ( on froogle ) ( on their site ) Ikea: Tildaholm BECAUSE... our kitchen is REALLY badly laid out, the storage is dropping to bits, the seal round the sink is black and festering, the oven hasn't worked for YEARS (the hob and grill are ok though), the seal on one of thef ridge doors has gone too, and the floor... half tiled, half bare concret! But now I have to choose which one I like best, and get the measurements sorted out, and then get the prices for what I can have in the space we've got... PHEW!

Recipe Review: Hairy Bikers liver & bacon with onions & gravy

I need a bit of comfort food at this time of year. I really love this recipe from The Hairy Bikers:  Liver and bacon with onions and gravy  and freely admit that I have whipped this from the BBC Food website. I follow the recipe (but sometimes chuck some mushrooms in too) and split it four ways at 11 pro points per serving. It's a classic, and even my 6 year old likes liver cooked like this - the 4 & 2 year olds need a little extra ketchup to convince them. The Hairy Bikers’ traditional liver and bacon makes a simple supper packed full of flavour and bursting with vitamins and minerals Ingredients 450g/1lb lambs’  liver , sliced and fully thawed if frozen 25g/1oz  butter 2 tbsp  sunflower oil 4 tbsp  plain flour 1  onion , halved lengthways and sliced 125g/4½oz rindless streaky  bacon  rashers, each cut into 4–5 pieces 1  beef stock  cube 500ml/18fl oz  jus t-boiled water 1–2 tsp tomato  ketchup salt and freshly ground  black pepper Preparation method Rinse the liver in a cola
