    Evening all! :) Got in from work, straight into the shower, on the phone to my mum for half an hour then dried hair & bf was dishing up tea! Feel like I've been on the go since I got out of bed this morning! :D

    easter - hope your boxer is OK, I'll send thoughts his way for it to be nothing serious *hugs*

    stressed - I can't believe what your poor DD went through at school, how insensitive! They should be ashamed of themselves, the school too - what were they thinking?
    Tulip - good that your dad popped around to sort out the radiator until it can be repaired. Hope you don't get too cold with it turned off, wrap up warm :)


    /me runs around the pub shouting woooooooo 1 more day to the weekend! :D

    Someone has just mailed me this and I immediately thought of Bella and her bad day with the kids and her cancelling christmas comment :rotfl:

    A Christmas Story for people having a bad day:

    When four of Santa's elves got sick, the trainee elves did not produce toys as
    fast as the regular ones, and Santa began to feel the pre-Christmas pressure.

    Then Mrs Claus told Santa her Mother was coming to visit, which stressed
    Santa even more.

    When he went to harness the reindeer, he found that three of them were about
    to give birth and two others had jumped the fence and were out, heaven knows
    where.

    Then when he began to load the sleigh, one of the floorboards cracked, the toy
    bag fell to the ground and all the thousands of toys were scattered.

    Frustrated, Santa went in the house for a cup of apple cider and a shot of rum.
    When he went to the cupboard, he discovered the elves had drunk all the cider
    and hidden the liquor. In his frustration, he accidentally dropped the cider jug,
    and it broke into hundreds of little glass pieces all over the kitchen floor. He went
    to get the broom and found the mice had eaten all the straw off the end of it.

    Just then the doorbell rang, and an irritated Santa marched to the door, yanked it

    open, and there stood a little angel with a great big Christmas tree.
    The angel said very cheerfully, 'Merry Christmas, Santa. Isn't this a lovely day? I
    have a beautiful tree for you. Where would you like me to stick it?'

    And so began the tradition of the little angel on top of the Christmas tree :A



    :rotfl:
    That ain't working! That's the way to do it, money for nothing and TV's for free ;)

    Cathyj - "but dont you think the media is not helping the matter, every time you turn on the news, its starts with the 'credit crunch', dome and glome"

    - thats so true, untill a few months ago the phrase credit crunch didn't even exist, yes we are in an economic down turn but the press is having a field day!

    Santa Poem called The Gift Of Love


    Look who I found Santa with a lot of presents

    One for me,One for you and one for all of you

    What is the present Santa I said?

    Santa went now that would be telling open and see

    So I sat on the floor and opened the present

    a great light shone and I felt some love and warmth

    I looked inside and there was nothing

    For you know what I had from Santa

    He had sent me the Gift of Love

    Oh Santa I exclaimed this is the best present I have ever had thank you so much I cried

    For you know everyone I wanted just to run and hide

    For I couldnt you see

    For I have alot of love in me

    So have a Merry Christmas one and All

    and remember all That I had said before

    Love is all around us at Christmas when we are with friends and loved ones

    Just eat and be Merry

    and have an odd glass of some Wine or Two

    and then watch the Tv To hear the Queens speech at 3pm

    and then You can reflect on the day as It has been special in Every way.


    hope you like this :)

    For you know where this will lead
    In a town not far away
    was it Bethlehem you say in awe
    Look at that Star in the Sky so Bright
    I think the sky is cloudy tonight
