happy new year! Lomie, I thought of you having to work last night - hope it wasn't too awful! Good I'm off to London tomorrow to see my mum and I can't wait! Christmas round two! :xtree: Had a lovely evening last night just chilling with Mr P, but this was the first year I didn't get even the slightest bit emotional over the new year arriving. I must be getting harder in my old age! Bad Mr P is still in bed! 
he's feeling a bit sorry for himself - we drank quite a few champagne cocktails last night and he doesn't normally drink - I had to get up at 7am to get him water and pain killers as his 'whole body hurt' hahaha! 
The boiler's been making some awful noises in the morning, and I fear we're going to need to get a new one. Great start to the year. 
hello Popster!!!!happy new year hun,when you coming for drinks????btw,check the pressure on your boiler if its making noises!!

I'm not sure how to check the pressure on my boiler. :cmdunno: Yes, we should organize drinks soon - I'm up again mid Feb, will sort something when I know dates!

theres usually a dial or sometimes digital and it'll say 'bar',make sure the pressure isnt near 0 or your heating will go off,if the noise is coming from the radiators it might be an airlock,low water in water tanks causes noises in the heating system too!(check me out,plumber!!)I recommend a site I found the other week called videojug,they have tutorials on DIY.I'm so rock 'n' roll!!!

I've been a bit lax with posting to the 2008 thread recently so here's to a more involved 2009! Lomie, poor you having to work. I hope you have a few days off to make up for it? I've been reading your recent threads about M-a-W and I am very happy for you! We really must arrange that East London meet soon! Popoki, I know exactly how you feel. My OH is lying on the sofa moaning because he 'needs' me go to the shop to buy him milk for some tea. I've already had to bring him chicken soup and help him get dressed I hope you have a wonderful second Christmas with your mum and that the boiler just needs a few tweaks :fingers: Good 
I have a job that I've worked towards for years, a gorgeous OH, an amazing family, a beautiful cat and my financial position isn't bad (disregarding my 10k student debt!). My health has been good recently and I really am very very lucky. I had a lovely Christmas. Everyone loved the presents I bought and I loved having the money to spoil people, I was also quite spoilt in return! I met some more of my OH's family over Christmas, including his very cute nieces and nephews, and our parents met at a theatre trip on Tuesday which went really well. 
I am in Brighton til Sunday, which is the longest we've stayed here since August. Our London place is essentially a studio and so cramped, it's lovely to be able to move around indoors and to see the sea again! Bad Work is fine but I don't love it. I'm hoping that will come as I get a bit less rubbish but I'm worried that if not several years down the line I'm going to have to make a difficult decision about where to go next. My goal is to buy a house in the next 5 years and I just can't see that happening if I take a substantial pay cut. things are still a bit on and off with my OH, we have huge fights about silly things but I just can't imagine not being with him and all our attempts at breaking up have totally failed. Because it's my first serious relationship I can't tell how much is me just being stupid. I want a dog sooooooooo much. And I just can't see it happening for years and years :boohoo: All very trivial really!

Qop I am very glad to hear it's not just us. I've tried to keep up with reading this thread over the last few months and I can't tell you how happy I am to read about your and mr qop's plans for the next year. I hope you find a lovely place to live :fingers: Sorry to hear you didn't have a great 2008, LouLou. I hope that the doctor can find a medicine that helps and good luck with getting the credit cards paid off, it's such a vicious circle - my boyfriend was very stupid with loans/credit cards before I met him and it's scared us both into being sensible. Hopefully 2009 will bring you some happiness, the bannoffee pie is a good start! I've just remembered one other bad I look disgusting at the moment, I've put on a crazy amount of weight and can't fit into most of my clothes. I *hope* it was mostly due to the pill I was on because my habits haven't changed much in the last few years but I am going to be working very hard at the gym over the next few weeks, asthma permitting.
