Only 9 years (this time!). No idea which that is on the paper... pearl .. ruby scale.

I get told off if I buy chocolates -- ruins the diet apparently !

Andy -- I thought Orchids ... deep fried. Nice and delicate!

Well after all this I dont feel striking today has had any impact on the government. I may have had a day off but when I go in tomorrow I will have to catch up on every thing I would have had to do today. All thats happened is that those in private sector jobs dislike public sector workers even more.

That was always going to happen oskiee. The press are influenced by the government.

However, you have to say, you've joined in the protest and the numbers have had a protest. My work is still there for me tomorrow but I won't be working any harder to clear it.

After all my worrying- no hassle one of the men on the picket line who we knew just said "morning ladies" and that was it! No one in our office was on strike but other departments had no one in.
