Skittles Evening

Last night was the annual skittles evening at Howley Grange Scout hut.  There were 36 people in attendance, split into 9 teams of 4. Amy & Beth managed to get onto the same team as each other, Alex & Josh also managed to get into the same team (I suspect some cheating!), But Amanda, Jess and yours truly were all in teams with three strangers.

It was a good night, very entertaining, and plenty of food and drink available, and to top things off: My team came first (Bottle of Wine each) and Jess’s team picked up the wooden spoon (Packet of Shortcake Biscuits each).

A good evenings entertainment to £3, we will definitely consider going again next year.

22 Years !!

On the 9th October 1986, I started working for BT.  Tomorrow will be the first day of my 23rd year in their employ!

I will be spending it in Stockport with one of the guys from the Genesys support team, with a view to getting a new job!!

New Toy…

Well, a new toy for Amanda!

The door of the oven recently broke, and it could not be opened more than 45 degrees, so a trip to Comet was in order yesterday, and this afternoon I should be taking delivery of a new Indesit FI31K cooker – a snip at £199 delivered.
