Move Out of My Way Bitch!!!!

Hello there dear readers

So on with the blog, last Monday work was extremely busy, followed by a busy lunch as well as i have to admit i started my Christmas shopping. I compiled a list of what to start getting and off i went.

Well you can imagine Bullring/Town was packed full of Christmas shopper all of them rushing around, panicking as if it was their last Christmas ever!

I was in Marks & Spencers trying to find a certain present which i had seen advertised on their website. So i started hunting high and low when all of a sudden this ..... huge.....monstrous, beast of a woman came plowing into me. Seriously she decided that i was an insignificant person that she could just barge through, i ended up in a small heap within the shelving!!

So i managed to get a few things and walked back to work.

That evening my good friend Becky who i haven't seen for a while came round the flat as she had bought me a birthday prezzie. She got me a bottle of wine (always welcome) and some Ted Baker body sprays (lovely!). We had a good natter catching up on all the goss!!

Tuesday work was just as busy and once again i decided to take the risk of doing some more Christmas shopping. It wasn't so bad as i only had to go into one shop instead of walking round half a dozen!!!

Tuesday evening i met up with Rosey, Dan and Emily at the Drum & Monkey (i don't know why, but i think that's a great name for a pub!). We had a good natter even though we were all tired, especially Rosey who had driven back from Cheltenham. We all left about 10pm and when i got back i went straight to bed.

Wednesday more manic shopping to do in my lunch hour. Although this time i had the upper hand on someone. I was back in M&S and i was looking for a Disney Princess activity kit for my friends daughter (who's only 3). I suddenly saw it on the shelf and there was only one left!! The lady who was infront of me (blocking my way) was obviously trying to make up her mind whether she wanted the Disney kit or a card making kit. I could see she was indecisive but i couldn't quite get round her to grab the Disney kit, so i waited patiently watching incase anybody else tried to snatch it, but it wasn't long before she made just enough space for me to get through and grab it. Just as i grabbed it the look on her face was priceless!!! So i quickly ran towards the till before she came and rugby tackled me for it!

Wednesday evening i just sat and chilled out with my bottle of wine and watched tv.

Thursday work was the same and more Christmas shopping although i was getting through my list quicker than i expected!

That evening i went down to nan's to see my dad for half an hour as he was flying off to New Jersey to see my Aunty Susie for her birthday that weekend so i went down to say goodbye really. I had a cup of tea and a buscuit before heading back home to relax.

Friday and work had became slightly quieter and in my lunch hour i didn't do any Christmas shopping! Instead i went to tax my car! I got to the Post Office and waited my turn which was only 10 minutes, handed over my paperwork when the lady on the desk told me my Insurance Certifcate was incorrect!!!! I looked and instead of my Reg number being BK03, it said BA03!! Damn it!

Now i hadn't noticed this, but 6 months ago when i taxed my car at the DVLA office they didn't notice either (just goes to show how well they do their job!!!).

So on my back to the office i rang Admiral and explained that they had to send me a new certificate, because of their stupid mistake!


So Friday evening i spent wrapping up the Christmas prezzies i had bought and writing my Christmas cards which i really enjoy doing!! I that took me a couple of hours and then i sat and watched tv.

Saturday was a busy day, thankfully my Insurance Certificate had arrived so i went and taxed my car and then me and Kieron went into Town to finish off my Christmas shopping and to do Kieron's!!!

We got to town dead on 9am and it was really quiet. We popped into Republic and we were in there for 10 minutes and when we came out the place was packed, you could hardly move!! So we clambered around all the shoppers and made our way round the nearest of shops.

We were in Town for about 2 hours and we couldn't take anymore so we left. We had completed most of our shopping but not all of it so i know what i'll be doing next week in my lunch hour!!!!

I then went down to see nan, grandad adn mum in the afternoon for our usual wine and cake session, which is always enjoyable and i needed after the shopping trip!

That evening i checked up on my nan to make sure she was alright. By the time i got back home i was shattered so decided to stay in and watch the telly.

Sunday me and Kieron went and did our food shopping which was a nightmare. We then popped into Kings Heath to get a few bits and pieces and then we went over to Argos in Shirley to get our Christmas tree. Although Argos haven't given us enough decorations to cover the tree we will have to find some more!!!

Later that evening I went down to nans for my tea as usual, watched Top Gear and the last episode of Long Way Down!!


And that's all there is for now so see you next blog!
