Chffing down
... and we eventually won back my soggy washing.
A productive day at work, got lots of my jobs crossed off the list-hurrah! Yummy staff dinner from the No 14 kitchen of creamy mushroom pasta-sounds a bit dull? it really wasn't!
Massaging my boss tomorrow, hope he still thinks I'm worth it!
Snow is coming down like snowbodies business. Getting a good base on the pistes. . .apparantly:)

I'm on the road again
... the proud mum was swiftly brought out for cuddles, photos and all things wonderful. She was a lovely, enormous beast, ready to drown you in a torrent of licking. We took numerous happy snaps, then moved on to the remainder of the museum.
Moving inside, the rest of the museum covers the history of the site. The Roman road was built in about AD50, to provide faster access to France and Britain. An older, Bronze Age road existed before then, but is no longer visible. ...
