Arrghh!

I feel rubbish today! Out come the Beechums :( I have had a whole packet of Strepsils and still have a sore throat. Hopefully I might feel a bit better for rehearsals tomorrow night!

I am not having much luck with Arriva buses at the moment! Not only did one not turn up yesterday lunchtime, today the same bus just drove straight past me and about 20 other people! Not a happy bunny today! I rang Arriva and made another complaint! They say they will investigate and get back to me within 10 working days. I won't hold my breathe.

I shall have a quiet, relaxing evening in making Smunkees :)

It's nearly March!

Ok so I have been neglecting my blog ALL this year! I shall have to get my arse in gear!

So on the Smunkee.Biz front I have just finished Smunkee #100! Which is very exciting. I have a steady supply of orders which is great, so I shall plod along as I am for now. Roll on Smunkee #250, #500 and #1000!

So the Operatic Society is fabulous! I love it and cannot imagine myself not being in it. I auditioned for Titanic and got a part of a Stewardess, in nearly every scene, meaning I need to be at nearly every rehearsal! So I am an extremely busy bee at the moment but I am super happy :)

I have just sold my car and have opted to 'Go Green' and get buses everywhere, up until today it was going quite smoothly (apart from the fact you cannot get a bus from Hummersknott on a Sunday). So I needed to pop into town to pick up a few bits for Smunkees, and the bus timetables allows for this in an hour :) however...I stood at bus stop from 12:06 until 12:30 waiting for the 12:16 bus which never arrived.

I was thoroughly peed off and wrote a snotty email to Arriva to complain. It doesn't look good for them when they advertise for car drivers to 'ditch the car and hop on a bus' especially when the bloody bus doesn't arrive!

Rant over.

I am going to do some work, get 2 buses home (if they arrive) then off to play an hour of Football with the lads. I imagine I will be stood in goal doing bugger all for the majority of the game.

Bye____x
