    I'd feel a bit of a Wally sitting there and not singing.

    Then mime (or do they call it 'lip synch' these days?)! If DS wants to go, that's lovely, go with him and enjoy!

    If you don't want/have time to wash you hair wear a hat or fashion something disguising out of a scarf!

    All done apart from the stockings. I think i'm going to watch a bit of tv then do them just before i go to bed. I would stay here but OH pinched my computer chair earlier so i've got nothing to sit on and am knelt on the floor:rolleyes:. I'm boiling hot too and have turned the heating off, taken my top off and opened the window:o. Thankfully the curtains are shut:D.

    OH MY GOODNESS ANY VETS AROUND (i'm also trying not to giggle) - Spotty potty puppy eats anything around!!!! We're always grabbing stuff from her mouth. I've just grabbed something that looked like a bit of plastic....then I recognised it. My hormone patch was missing!!!!! It still had two days to go too. Do you think she'll be ok...I don't know how long she'd been chewing it for!!!! xx

    Oh Mudders! That's so funny but also so worrying at the same time..
    I know when I've phoned the vet out of hours, they give an emergency number to ring.
    More importantly - what are YOU going to do about your hormones?

    Woohoo I am fnished all I need to do

    - thank you so much all of you for the support and pigpen and lilme for the threads throughout the year.

    I have never been this organised before, the presents are ALL wrapped now, all public rooms are clean, teas been munched (pig rolls were delicious) and the kitchen cleaned. I am officially going to put my feet up with my bubbly and scoff junk while watching TV.

    For those of you not popping in tomorrow (I probably will :D )

    Merry Christmas

    taken my top off :eek: and opened the window:o. Thankfully the curtains are shut:D.

    So glad about that! :rotfl:

    Soappie - I think I really just don't feel like it, although I might feel like going along in the morning (5 minute walk instead of driving to the SA Hall) It's the first time in years that I've been organised this early, so was thinking of going for a soak in the bath and an early-ish night. We used to always go to Midnight Mass (wrong church but we just didn't take Communion) at St Mary Redcliffe in Bristol. Beautiful church if anyone is visiting Bristol.
