THE BIG THRILL thing that I'd trailed to the city for!!!! So snapped up the last one!!! :T:T:T

I nipped into my local one first thing and snapped up 3, but I'm stashing them for birthday presents throughout the year.

I also recycled some raggy clothes, handed in a bag to Cancer Research, bought birthday cards for my January people and got my groceries. I'm now knackered and vegging out on the settee, decluttering the sky plus

Not if Pigpen stays in this frame of mind! We'll be washing the windows on the outside on Christmas Day and be told to be grateful that we'll be able to watch the festivities from there!

I found just now two wooden deer from Nan's house which I'd carefully tucked in my decorations box when I cleared her house. The nicest thing of all was it made me smile rather than cry.

That's lovely - happy memories x

well i appeciate the motivation piggers is giving me

Valli

d'you know we have had a christmas card for the previous residents AGAIN.
I have lived here for 11 years now - it REALLY is about time these people were informed of the new address...I have lost my sense of humour over this TBH. Not least because HIS sister once gave out our phone number (was their's) to a market research person who then tried to call her here and they 'couldn't understand' how the firm got our number. I flippin well could!

pots (almost) all washed.

Choc and glacier mints in car as is HM choc & cran fudge as DS will scoff the lot if given half a chance ... he has already got a tin of christmas chocs out (and I have hidden them again)
