Ok Guys I apologise in advance...............

It started off light hearted, but you all know me when I kinda get reflective :eek: Btw I have had a small amount of red wine. So GG still on 11 hunny. Hugs (()) xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

No Bhb or our lovely Winebox
But fear not as we still have our Dear Fay and her powerful stripey socks
Our adorable Honeybear has bear flu :eek:
And the lovely 40sm is puppy training but doesnt know what to do?

We are all going on Ym's crimbo lights tour
Beware we may just come a knock, knock, knockin on your door :eek:
We have our Dear Lurky making our christmas mince pies
He started our af challenge year, my how the time flies:A

We also have our adorable darling Jo :A
Who is going for the Full Monty and has only 5 days to go :j
She is an inspiration to us all :T
The one to look upto when you feel you are going to fall :A

So this is thanks to GC,RA, Bis, Eselt and Mp too :A
For guiding us all when we felt lost and didn't know what to do
All of you are a very special brick in our wall :cool:
Without the support that you all give, then many of us would certainly fall

Sorry its probably awful but you get the idea?

Hugs to you all and I really mean that, you are such a great bunch and I feel lucky to know you :A

Ok sentiment over .............

Budgie xxxxxxxxxxxxx
Ps hugs Honey Bear and sorry to hear about your Dear Mum, well done on being so lovely and sending the flowers :A She will be thrilled. Bear hugs (()) xxxxxxxxxxxxx

Good evening

Been lurking all evening and now time to head to bed. Have been giving BF lesson on cash back sites over Skype.

Anyway I still can't seem to shake off this tiredness. Yawns. I don't know how people working full time and having kids manage to keep all their stuff sorted when I have ample amount of time and get behind with everything. Tomorrow please can I have kick bottom if I am not tackling my to do list.

However it is now 25 for me please DD (and today is exactly 6 months from when I first time met with BF :smileyhea)

Evening folks, better late than never!

HB - wow, taking on the Jan scoring = respect! :T

Now this is a bit sad, but I'm really looking forward to Jan on here. Joined in Jan this year so that'll be my 1 year anniversay of being part of this great group of folks and also wondering if a few of the familiar faces from back then (:hello: to The Rugby Coach if you're lurking!) will be back to do an AF month post-festivities.

Was wondering who I'm passing the scoring baton to for December? Can't remember if anyone's offered yet. It'll be an odd month as I guess a lot of us will be staying with rellies (sp?) and might not have the usual internet access/privacy to post.

Anyway, withough further ado...the scores on tonight's doors are:

BB love the poem!!

Glasgow girl amazing to read such lovely messages on the final stretch

Just a suggestion thinking about the scoring for December. How about in December we just account for ourselves and post as usual - the thread was like this before (just a thought ) I think GG's hit it on the head - for Dec its a tricky month for many reasons - many of those include limited internet access??

What do folks think - takes the pressure off a bit from a scoring point of view - and those who want to post AFD's can take their own scores....?

Don't think it will stop the posting - more likely we'll all keep shouting out our lovey AFD's ...........................:)

Its just an idea....................................................xx

1 more for me please gg

Will pop back later to catch up with you all. Spent a bit of time reading the bank reclaim charges thread today but decided not to read anymore as it was starting to wind me up.

There are certainly some self righteous people about :rolleyes:
