Cheers! Other than it generally being better to pass than to fail, this year was very important (to me) because if I failed it would mean I couldn't go on my elective, so I'd have to revise for the next 8 weeks, take the test again (with a maximum D grade, although I only got a C anyway...!) and then start revising for finals immediately. This way, I get to naff off to a foreign land for 10 weeks, woo. Girlfriend not so chuffed as it means I'm leaving her on her own for 2 1/2 months...

Also, I'm P&F today because I upgraded my phone (nothing that special, the new Samsung, but a couple of decent features) whilst downgrading my tariff, so I'm paying a tenner less. Don't use the extra minutes anyway.

And! I've almost got the Diagonal Palm Shift down perfectly, which I'm SUPER excited about as it just has so many amazing possibilities!

Sounds like an excellent reason, if any is needed, for a celebration of the aLcoholic, yet responsible, kind .....

I'm feeling pink and fluffy because my 8 week old son is giving me big smiles

I'm so totally pink and fluffy becuase I bought a couple of pairs of rather expensive shoes at better than half price.

And my car's decided to start today

Pink and Fluffy because the olympics are on.

I agree with that. The olympics are the greatest event on earth!

Not sure why they have a gender divide on archery though (I mean all they have to do is aim)

its all to do with the pull strength mate honestly..i used to do alot of archery..

each bow have different pull strengths - so think of it like weight divisions in boxing...

Fair enough but 10m air pistol? etc

I saw an archery demonstration at one our grand castles and the guy let me have a go with his 120lb strength bow, boy was that a beast (IB?)

You playing out on wednesday?

meh..dunno yet mate..i'll be in touch if i do!

pink and fluffy because I was able to install and upgrade a phpBB forum (like this one) all by my self!

and because I just treated myself to chocolate

so totally pink and fluffy because I've got the house to myself as Dave's gone up to London to see the start of the rugby season and I'm off to the hair dressers and then a girly night out tonight.

Pink and fluffy because I'm going to the local magic shop today and spending that $100 I won.

Very Pink & Fluffy today - I found out my foundation school allocation for August, and it's here in West Yorkshire which was my first choice.

Big relief as it means I don't have to panic about housing (I'd optimistically signed the contract on this house for another year already!), I won't be moving away from friends and more importantly the girlfriend, and I'll be in hospitals that I am at least vaguely familiar with.

Now I've got to apply for jobs, but as the foundation school have accepted me, frankly I don't give a monkeys what I end up doing. It's only for 2 years anyway, I can then apply to whatever I like, and I'm not interested in most of the highly competitive stuff anyway.

It's all coming up Farlsborough

Pink And Fluffy today because I had a very satisfying nightshift at work. Smoke, real flames, carrying woman out of burning house, and a little flashover rolling overhead and blowing the windows out.... Then back in time for bread 'n' butter pudding and a cuppa tea in the wee small hours. May even partake of a small shandy later...
