    It's not going well over here :(

    I ordered some Christmas cards online this morning. (I know that might seem a bit extravagant to some. I'm just particular about what charities I buy cards from and it would cost me the equivalent of the postage in travel costs to get to a proper charity shop.) Anyway, I've just looked at where I keep all my wrapping paper etc & I still have oodles of cards left over - doh! :o

    Remind me next Christmas not to buy cards :rolleyes:

    I then went to wrap presents, going for old style brown paper & string as I have lots of brown paper,...but no string! Double doh! :o

    Shall give up on Christmas for the time being...

    The main thing I remember about Orinocco was that he went missing & was found rumaging in the bins behind Fortnum & Masons! :D
    Think of him every time I go there, which isn't often I hasten to add! :p

    Cheers, Fay! :)

    Is there any evidence out there that says red wine is good for bear flu? :confused:

    And if not can I start my own research project? :D :rotfl:

    Would love a glass of wine but our resident scientist, Dr Lurky, has ruled that it's bad for bear flu :p

    So that's 8 for me, GG :)
