Happy Friday! In 50 minutes I'll take the last exam of my law school career. Graduation is eight days away.

oh, no. I'm going to clash. I've gone with green and you know what they say... Yellow and green should never be seen.

I'll just have to have another glass of wine in the very quite NCL lounge.

Does that mean we're going to have to pay $$$$$ to read your posts after that?

Congratulations [provided you pass that last Exam with a Not Guilty verdict] ^

Only 13 in here for the 8.30pm flight. I spent the first hour alone. Sadly a couple decided to turn the volume up on the to and then not watch it!

Edit. About five to we were all told individually the flight was boarding. Walked to the gate and straight on before they even opened the gate area. Saying that, 15 minutes later and the purser tells us there are only 76 on the flight. First four rows are being kept empty for trim. I was bumped from 1a and somebody else from 1c.

No air travel for me this week, I had to cancel my EDI-LGW Fri breakfast club because work decided I needed to be in Pontypridd yesterday. I think Arriva Wales raided a museum for their rolling stock

Well there you go then. One of the girls in my work told me this but I will be happy to correct her so thanks rossmacd

Never knew we had a fashion guro on the BA board

Looks like I will have to ditch the yellow outfit I bought for the Do tonight!

My new (bigger) RAM chips arrived at lunchtime, 24h after ordering on-line. I shall attend to the excitement of installation in the morning!

RAM installed successfully, Mac cleaned and dusted and entire desk areas cleaned, tidied and polished.

I shall take the rest of the weekend off

On Friday we flew via Madrid to Gran Canaria for Pride week. Hope I can get rid of this cold to be able to enjoy it.
