I AM THE BOSS

.

Members of staff are working at the Cliff Top Residence at the moment.

I’ve told them that I have some very important work to do and I’ve sat myself down in the conservatory with lappytop.

They are under strict instructions to leave me alone …….. hang on…….

“Tea? ……. for two? …….. ”

“One with sugar and milk and one with sweeteners, must be aspartame, and goat’s milk …..”

“OK.”

“…… and some biscuits – ginger nuts and Jammy Dodgers.”

“OK.”

……… now where was I? Oh yes, writing a very incisive blog about ….. oh ………hang on ….

“We’ll have Lunch from 12:00 ‘til 13:00 – tuna pasta would be nice, with a green salad with some llight, freshly made dressing and a baguette.”

“OK, I’ll start on that soon, I’m just …………………………………………. oh never mind.”

.

I love being the boss (Naughty Peabrain. You forgot to say ‘If that’s all right with you, dear.’ Lo,TG Ed)

.

…….. and I’m sooooo good at it ……..

    [DP's just left]

    70steen replied:

    Fancy a cuppa and a custard cream TG?

    Lo,TG replied:

    I’d love a quick calming cup o’ tea. I’m trying to buy a washing machine on line and the site’s driving me nuts.

    John Lewis would be so much easier – and so much more expensive.

    Back to the grind.

    70steen replied:

    that usually stops me buying the product from certain sites… the speed of their web…. balanced out with my hourly rate I end up back at John Lewis… good luck.

    jacks replied:

    yes of course it is but i didn’t even get tie to tidy her draws out and she was back. Has anyone actually seen her did she really have an op……is this just a ploy for her typo errors…..

    daddyp replied:

    Good point – we need to see proof!!!!

    Mornin’!
    If you’re on tea duty, I’ll have a cup of tea (I only drink Clipper de-caffeinated organic tea), weak, skimmed milk (organic of course), no sugar. And I’ll have a Duchy Original stem ginger shortbread biscuit , thanks.
    High maintenance? Moi?

    daddyp replied:

    Good heavens – I’ll have to go shopping – although I can manage the ‘no sugar’ OK ……..

    I suppose a non-fat skinny latté is out of the question?

    daddyp replied:

    If you can translate that into a ‘real’ language …….

    I’m sorry, but the thought of you balancing a tea tray makes me quail just a teeny bit.

    daddyp replied:

    You want some quail!!!!?!!! …………. OK, one teeny quail coming up ……

    “working at the clifftop residence”

    Why do I have this feeling that your definition of ‘work’ might be a little different…?

    I’ve just got back from the ‘extended tea break’, I mean the ‘Cliff Top Residence’ – and what exactly is your point?

  12. Posted October 21, 2008 at 7:13 pm | Permalink

    I have no idea. Surely you don’t think I come here to make points?!

    daddyp replied:

    Thank heavens for that …… I was beginning to get worried ……

    No body knows where I am AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!

    daddyp replied:

    You’re not safe to be let out on your own are you? – always in a pickle [in this case probably pickled herring].

    If there is anything I can do please let me know …….preferably when I’m not asleep ……
