There is Man ripping apart the kitchen, it is GREAT. Lots of banging and hammering and smashing. BYE BYE CRAPPY OLD KITCHEN!

Only slight flaw now is that I can't get hold of the gas-fitter guy to get him to come do the pipes etc for new hob. WIll keep trying.

How is your day going?

My day is going fine, nice and leisurely. I am looking at research grants, messing about with weather sites, and such. Later I will purchase a shiny new laptop for the office. Then I will make aubergine bake. Y'know, nice things.

[hellison.livejournal.com]

hurrah! That sounds like a very pleasant day indeed!

am hungry now. may have to run to tescos for lunch and snacks and stuff

[thesme-01.livejournal.com]

Of course, just after typing that I sensed teh onset of my period.

[hellison.livejournal.com]

[hieronymousmosh.livejournal.com]

Speaking of, someone on my f-list just pointed this site out.


(p.s. am not dead of Duran Duran)

[hellison.livejournal.com]

Is it the granite one you're getting?

[hellison.livejournal.com]

yes! but the granite doesn't come til next week, apparently once the cupboards are in, they come and make a template, then bring the granite a few days later.

[http://users.livejournal.com/_unhurt_/]

probably after they have all defiled them in the workshop.

just fyi!

[adelpha.livejournal.com]

I think the defiling comes once hellison_1 gets to see them.

[http://users.livejournal.com/_unhurt_/]

a row of oranges all along the countertop!

RUBRUBRUBRUB

Moistening the granite!

[hellison.livejournal.com]

THERE IS TO BE NO DEFILING OR RUBBING OR ANYTHING OF THE SORT ON MY GRANITE!

[thipe.livejournal.com]

But how else will you make it SHINE?

[adelpha.livejournal.com]

Eau de Squid?

*defriends. AGAIN*

I've not seen that method of cleaning the cooker before. Are fishnets particularly good for getting off those really burned in stains?

[gnillot.livejournal.com]

I cunningly sneaked in a day in lieu yesterday and didn't get told off too much about it so it's all good so far. Work is insanely busy, so they are glad to have me back in the office ;)

Made the best soup ever (was even 100% vegetarian!) yesterday and am looking forward to eating another portion tonight.

Other than that? erm... nothing. Should start planning Christmas presents. I seem to have built up a reputation on the present-giving front and need to not let myself down... Oh, and I should figure out what to give Dad for his 65th birthday on the 18th.

[hellison.livejournal.com]

yay for day in lieu! am enjoying the lazy day off today, but alas it is not in lieu of anything :/

[jin-shei.livejournal.com]

I have Organised. Food shopped, done the FINAL FINAL christmas stuff, and even bought shiny metal trays to cook batches of stuff on.

*smug* :P

[hellison.livejournal.com]

omg. FINAL? i haven't done ANY!

[jin-shei.livejournal.com]

Even down to the terrys oranges for the stockings :D

[repton-infinity.livejournal.com]

If you're having trouble with christmas shopping, you should get your LJ friends to do some of it for you!

[hellison.livejournal.com]

That could make for an... interesting christmas morning!

[hieronymousmosh.livejournal.com]

Banging and hammering and pipes, oh my!

I bring you chocolates for eating off granite counters:

[hellison.livejournal.com]

Now I want chocolate! and oranges ;p

More banging tomorrow too!
