Please Mr postman

I am sick of my postman! He never knocks on the door with parcels and just puts a card through the door. Half the time he doesn't even bring the parcels out with him.
My dad is sick of having to go and get them every day of the week, that's what it is getting to now. We are both now affraid of ordering something because we know we are paying postage for something that we are going to have to go and pick up.
Everytime my dad says something to the guy in the sorting office he has a go at my dad and tries to pick arguments with him over nothing. My dad has even resorted to called him a bald little weasel and it really is unlike my dad to call anyone names but after months of having to go down three up to three times a week and the guy behind the counter being nasty he has had more than enough! My dad is the most placid person I know but this guy totally winds my dad up.
Now something has gone missing in the post and I know when it was and I think it was taken by the postman too. I can't contact the company that sent it for the next three days as you have to give it 2 weeks to turn up but I know for a fact it won't do because I ordered something else on the same day and that turned up three days later.

So please Mr postman please do your job and knock on the door and bring the parcels out as we are sick of this, it is beyond the point of annoying now and is just stressing us out!


I got my TMA off for DD100 on Saturday, I think it is due today or next week. .... lol. I just can't remember but I know it will be there before it is due. I really must put the DD100 calendar up. I know the next one isn't due for about 6 weeks so that is ok as I will have done it in a months time.
Today I start back on A217, I should of started on it yesterday but I wasn't feeling too well and I couldn't get myself motivated to do much yesterday but I am not behind on anything so it is ok that I chilled out for some of yesterday.
I am really looking forward to getting into A217 as we only did just a weeks work for the first TMA and we didn't concentrate on one individual religion but from now on we concentrate on individual religions for each TMA. Oh the thing I love about this course is the TMAs and that is because for each of the TMAs there is a choice of two questions. So you can pick from the questions of which one you want to do the most though maybe when I get to them I might not want to do any ... lol.

Well I finished the long way round (book) and I really loved it. What an amazing book, fabulous in fact. Now I must seee the TV show from start to finish so I am getting it on DVD. I really can't wait to watch it after reading that book.
I started Mort last Wednesday and read about 50 pages and then left it will yesterday when I read 150 pages of the book and now I have about 60 left to read which I will do today. I am liking this one but I don['t think it is the best one I have read so far but it is a lot better than Equal Rites :O) After Mort I am reading Sex and Drugs and Sausage Rolls by robert Rankin and I can't wait.

I'm such a .....

Well I managed to get my TMA for A217 finished and sent off. I was ill the day after I was planning to finish it and couldn't finish it all week because I was ill, also being ill meant I got no study done for 5 days making me behind on DD100.
I finish A217 off in 30 minutes and sent it the next day almost two weeks before the cut off date, I have never done that let alone had a TMA finished so soon before the cut off date but needs must.

I am managing to catch up on DD100 and managed to get three or so hours of it done today, I would of liked to have done more but had other things to do plus I am very happy with the progress I have made over the last few days on it.
I will start the TMA this week sometime when I have done all the course work and hopefully it will be finished next Monday so I can get back onto A217.

Oh I dyed my hair and it looks amazing. I have gone for 80% red (bright red) but couldn't get rid of the blond on top as I love being blond! Though I have always wanted red hair I just couldn't get rid of it all when it came to it and I must say it has come out amazingly and I am very pleased with the result thought it doesn't show up too good in any pictures, oh well.

I am reading a really good book at the moment and even though I am only a third of the way through it I think everyone should read it because it is such a great book. A friend recommended it to me and I am so glad I listened to them as it is a great read, I am behind on my weekly reading of it but the next book I plan to read won't take too long so it is all good.
Talking about my goal, I have a goal to read 50 books in 2006 and so far I have managed to stick to it, I don't normally manage to stick to things for too long but I am 6 weeks into this and have read six books and I am still enjoying it all and think I will probably stick this goal out all the way to the end.

My phone is really annoying me. Yeah it looks good but the feactures aren't too good but I didn't know that when I go it as I have never had a Samsung before, all I have had is Nokias which are great phones but don't look too good.
The video quality and picture quality on this phone isn't good and I am so sick of it. I love the size of it and a few of the features but other than this I think this phone is total rubbish though if I hadn't had Nokias before this I guess I would be happier with it as I wouldn't of known what a good phone is like.
I got it on contract when I got contract in October last year and within days I was after changing it but wasn't allowed as you are meant to keep them for 12 months but I don't think I want to keep this till October because I am not happy with it. I was told I could upgrade for £250, Omg! What planet are they on? The phone I like is under £200 so would be cheaper for me to buy that and put the sim in and they will be non the wiser but I don't want to pay £200 for a phone so will wait till I see one I like that is cheaper. I really can't believe Orange's attitude though!
