Ho ho ho
I couldn't do the cake yesterday, because Waitrose had run out of icing sugar. They must have reduced it by 1p and caused a stampede.
I had a very good meeting/s this morning, and now I can see at least halfway into 2017, fiscally speaking. It was almost worth getting up at 6 this morning to attend it.
I wish I had seen this photo of H.I. from behind sooner, then I could have arranged to make a few quid out of her by giving her some similar facial hair and setting her up in one of the department stores as Santa. I'm not sure she would have lasted very long in the job, so it's probably just as well.

Don't try to embiggen it - the skinflint who took it was saving on pixels.
ReplyDeleteI did embiggen it before going to the comment section, and read your comment :) Please tell H.I she has lovely hair and a beautiful colour!
ReplyDeleteGreetings Maria x
I probably won't - she hates having her photo taken, let alone showing it.
DeleteI agree with Maria about H.I. having lovely hair.
ReplyDeleteCongrats to you on the successful meeting/s. Good news is so welcome.
Maybe sugar will soon be restocked. Has to be top priority around this time of year.
I think I will be finishing my minimal Christmas baking this morning, and although I have enjoyed the past week's time with the oven, it's going to be swell to just relax a bit.
I now have to admit that I was looking in the wrong area. For some reason, Waitrose splits up the displays about 15 feet apart.
DeleteNo baking for me this year! I feel liberated!!
ReplyDeleteI didn't bake the actual cake - I bought it...
DeleteH.I looks fab-u- lous ..... her hair is wonderful ... all she needs now is an iPhone !!!
ReplyDelete.... and, after such a successful meeting, can we take it that will you be a millionaire in 2017 ? XXXX
I have now had a refund from the people I paid £35 to unlock it, and will try to do a 'Jailbreak' unlock on it... after Christmas...
DeleteGreat hair...lovely colour. Good to hear that you are heading into 2017 with a bit more ooomph financially.
ReplyDeleteAll it means is that I will be able to eat for a few months more, which is what I call being able to see into the future.
DeleteSeeing halfway into 2017 is the icing on the cake! Good for you and snub a Waitrose!
ReplyDeleteSee above. They had it all along, hidden away in a different place.
DeleteWow - I would give a lot for that hair!
ReplyDeleteHow much? For the right price I could shave it off and send it to you, Weave.
DeleteMerry Christmas to you and H.I.
ReplyDeleteAnd to you and your charming children, Yael.
DeleteGood to hear re: fiscal 2017, Tom!
ReplyDeleteWow what beautiful hair.
That sort of news is always good just before Christmas. It takes some of the dread out of the long Winter days.
DeleteI get the feeling of deja vu.
ReplyDeleteAbout what?
DeleteFiscal meetings
DeleteThere are meetings all the flipping time. This one I went to.
DeleteI am not far out ever.
DeleteYou and her look like book ends
ReplyDeleteNow that you say it .... there is something true about that. But all meant with love ;)
DeleteI thought the same in different words
DeleteYes, we can be easily spotted in crowds.
