    As it's still the 12th, I don't see how it can be attributed to the "Friday the 13th" superstition.

    heh I think I'm running ahead given my recent run of luck , though its hard to know if Im in the same timezone sometimes when I've not been outside in so long , and then you have that business with sun flipping out too which cant be good .

    Ay caramba

    I blame Santa , I think his time travailing antics together with too much sherry have completely distorted the 2013 time stream.

    They "forgot" to talk about the payrise until someone asked in the Q&A. The HR director replied that we are all getting a "pay review" and when questioned as to what a pay review meant he got a bit upset hah!

    Re: Friday the 13th

    ^ you missed it by 1 day!! 1 day I tell you!!
    last post 15/4 todays the 14/9 so it should have been tomorrow. try again in 5 months.



    back on topic:

    a baby dove was taking in some flying time around and about. ive seen it in my garden for at least a few weeks with its family. yesterday BANG!!! its smashed its head open by flying full pelt into my window about 4 ft away from my head.
    don't know if it was aiming for me or just wanted to show off like kids do "look at me ma, you're not looking, watch me try this somersault, MOM youre not lookin....." Splat...

    aah well, its buried in neighbours garden now.
    they were first on the scene and my mum kindly let them deal with it, aww bless.


    so unless a dead baby dove is the sign for some coming apocalypse, my Friday was hunky dory.
