Two More Sleeps 'Til Christmas

Only two more sleeps to go until Christmas Day!

I went to see Clever Crafting Friend (CCF) and her new kitched floor is gorgeous! The whole kitchen looks fresh and bright, and that's before the new wall tiles are on! It was, as always, lovely to catch up....we talked about everything, caught up on old work, and told about new work. I had a lovely milky coffee, and a home made mince pie (which I forgot to say was scrummy!). It even turns out that Mrs W that I met on Sunday, CCF knows her! What a small world :)

Anyway, off into the fog to leave CCF and R to get ready for their works Christmas party, and home. It was a bit of a dodgy drive....of course I took the long route past my Mum and Dad's, which just happens to be near a lake! Fog galore. Home, sat and had a ciggy with hubby, and off I went upstairs wrapping presents.

I have to say at this point, that the most awkward present to wrap out of them all was for Sis In Law. But, it's what she wanted, so I made it look as good as possible :)

I've only got hubby's to wrap now....I'll wait until he either pops out today, or goes to bed tonight to do them.

Someone must have told Santa that I've been a good girl this year, as the pile of present under the tree is huuuuge! and no, hubby's aren't there yet ;)

So here I am, listening to John Barrowman on CD......gorgeous voice! Gorgeous man. I spoke to one of my customers last week, and he was from Cardiff, where Torchwood and Dr Who are filmed. He told me he quite often see's them filming from where he works. I asked him to give John a kiss from me if he saw him, he instantly said no, but that he would shake his hand for me :) I HAVE to get to Cardiff to see the pantomime he is in. I HAVE to stand at the stage door to meet him, I HAVE to have my picture taken with him, an autograph, and maybe a peck on the cheek. Then if it's an overnight stay I will visit each and every memorable feature in Cardiff that is featured in Torchwood, and have my picture taken there. Especially on the "Invisible transportation paving slab, that is one of the entrance's to The Hub, right by the water tower in Cardiff. ANyone guessed I'm a huuuge fan yet.

And.......I heard this week, they have signed Torchwood up for a second series wooooohoooooo!!!!!! Captain Jack Harkness Rocks! Of course I will watch, and record Christmas day's Dr Who as I have a feeling he will be in that, as well as a couple of the other episodes of Dr Who...Ooooooooooooh brainwave!! They are recording the new series of Torchwood in the spring! Maybe Whisky could take a trip and watch some of the recording.....maybe even be an extra in the background pinching Captain Jacks Bum....ahem! Getting carried away here.

Even though he is gay, he did admit on The Johnathon Ross show that he finds women sexy......well, one look at me could change that idea LOL.

Anyway enough rambling from me. I'm more excited about Torchwood than Christmas now!! Typical nutty Whisky.

Jingle Bells Jingle Bells and all that

Hugs

Last night I wrapped just about every present we had in the house.

Methinks I have Either A Stalker Or A Secret Admirer?!

OK for months now I have been asking the ROD reader to disclose his or her identity......my Site Meter stats tell me who visits, how they found my website, where they are, what internet providor they are using, and disconcertingly how long they view the site for each time the visit.

Firstly....people I know, it doesn't bother me how long you peruse the site for. For example I can be reading a blog, think of something, open up another window, and sit hovvering on someone's blog for ages. Holli, I'm sure you will agree with me on that. I'm normally searching for something or other, checking out ebay, or reading/commenting on someone elses blog without realising I have had the other window open for hours! So, I know it's easily done to just leave a web page open.

Secondly, I know I can re visit someone's site a number of times a day. The first thing I do when I log on, is check my e mails, then read my regular blogs, visit bebo or myspace, then go back to read a blog again because I forgot to comment, or wanted to re read something. I used to be online for 8 hours at a time....but now my health has improved I do other things as well.

So.....here's some information relating to my stalker/admirer. I have removed all other information as I don't think it's relelvant that you see who else visits the blog and where they are from....Site meter even tells me what town, and how many miles away they are from me.

That top 20 is today and yesterday starting at 11.34pm UK time.

So. Seing as I'm now a Super SLeuth? Firstly I ruled out myself as it is the same internet ptovidor that I use. Secondly I checked it wasn't SIL, not the same providor, CCF again not the same providor, and Navie Wifey same providor.....but not her!

So.....who does that leave? No one that I know.

I'm probably over reacting by posting this, and I'll probably rethink it and delete it.....but it's really starting to bug me.

To get a pictorial view.....the green in the above is from this visitor. And the thing that set me off was one of the links they clicked on today.....suddenly interested in ostomy supplies?

I guess what I'm trying to say is.....I know more than you think I do, I know people have found me by searching for Nanny McPhee, and How much Whisky to put in your coke.

So, your help needed, anyone got any ideas who this might be? Or, can the actual person just please, please, please leave one comment so I know you're not an actual stalker, or even a letterbox stalker aaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh!!

Speaking of screaming, I forgot to mention. Hubby and I did our Christmas shoppin on Saturday, 2nd stop of the day was Toys R Us for certain nephews and nieces. Walked into the store and one of my worst nightmares hit me right in the face. There on the wall was an 8foot high picture of the current Dr Who shining a blue beam at you, and that was just a head and shoulder shot! Next to him, larger than life was a Cyber Man and a Dalek.....now looking at a Dalek is bad enough for me.....clinging onto hubby's jacket we wandered towards the display, (Istill say he did this on purpose to see if my fears were real). Anyway.......all of a sudden, full volume, loud and clear "EXTERMINTATE EXTERMINATE". That was it, I was off like a shot, round the corner cuddling a giant teddy bear! Hubby was in fits of laughter, and I did get a few strange looks.......I know, a 35 year old woman sh** scared of Dalek's......at least it wasn't the child catcher from Chitty Chitty Bang Bang....I'd have legged it out of the shop and 3 miles down the road if it was him.

Wuss or what!

Work today went ok. It was busy, on the phones, and I helped out in customer service a little bit again. But there was a bad vibe coming from one person. I even sat at one point and reanalysed Thursdays night out, trying to recall our conversations, which were limited, to see if I could remember saying the wrong thing...but no. I was sober....the person concerned was slightly tipsy.

The person concerned walked past me at least five or six times without acknowledgement. Boss S mentioned that everyone was going out for lunch next Thursday would I like to come. I automaticall offered to man the phones while everyone else went out, but she told me firmly I was going. The person concerned is organising this......so I guess it's up to said person whether my name gets put on the list. They did start to mention it to me.....and I heard my name mentioned a few times by them.....but nothing said to my face.

Mind you, this is the same person that during my first week had a bit of a dig. I was warned by the occupational health Dr that some people may hold a grudge. There was a conversation going on regarding people claiming benefits and being on the "dole". I was busy putting orders on so I took no notice....until the last comment that came at the end of the conversation after a slight delay, pointed in my direction. "That is if people want to work".

I've only mentioned it to hubby.....and his opinion was the same as mine. This person didn't know me before I went off sick. They didn't know, like everyone else did, that I practically worked in agony for a few weeks before admitting defeat and being taken into hospital. They didn't see me in "work mode" before I was poorly, and they certainly haven't seen, as yet, my full contribution to work and just how dedicated I can be. Maybe their opinion will change, maybe it won't. They're just lucky that they are healthy.

Ggggggrrrrr got my moaning head on tonight.

Oh, SIL I was watching a re run of Torchwood last night when you rang, I had the volume on the tv up that high in the living room that I didn't hear the phone or the answer machine....I was too busy drooling over........

John Barrowman in a tight white tee shirt. Sorry.

Speaking of JB, if you can, watch the Royal Variety Performance tonight, as he is opening and closing the show. Singing of course, and with a voice like his, a body like his, and eyes looking straight at me (Of course) through the tv screen, I shall just melt into the sofa sat next to hubby! He knows he's my "hunk of the month" as he puts it. But he also knows that I won't "buy a beefburger while I have steak at home".

So Please mr or mrs R on D person.......say hello.....even if it's just a little tiny ickle one. Just to set my paranoid freaked out brain at rest.

Hugs to all.

Need Lisa's Help!!!

LIsa, Lisa, Font of all Torchwood knowledge, I saw your comment, you have laid my demons to rest about how Captain Jack cannot die....now can you help me with another dilemma?

The most previous episode "They Keep Killing Suzie". The Music at the end....If I could stay in your arms forever...etc..etc do you know who it's by, what it's called, anything so I can download that song its gorgeus!!!

Just a brief post for now, as hubby is due back any minute, hopefully.

But.....guilt, oh guilt is in my mind. With the busy goings on this week, I have betrayed a very dear friend. I know, I only realised last night...at midnight that it was her birthday. Not Pingu.........but, I'm too guilty to say who, she will know. Please forgive me.....I'll be round soon to try and make up for it.....I'm so so so so sorry :(

For now, Super Sleuth Whisky....crowned last night at my works evening out is signing off. I'll explain more in my next post.

Birthday girl, please forgive my forgetfullness.

Guilty hugs

Whisky
