Thank you valli calsberggal Christmas greetings and best wishes to you too.

I am still in bed and QVC is on tv. I don't know why but can't reach the remote control. I am not ill just being forced to rest so I can last out for this evening and tomorrow.

We go to church for 3pm today for our Christmas Midnight Mass!! That is so the priest can get through. We need lots of good vibes for him as he crashed his car trying to get here last weekend.

kazI am doing same as you, DH always brings me a cuppa at 6.30 but he left me today and is now running the bath for me. I hope you have a lovely stress free C'mas. Can you keep us updated on Norfolk roads over the weekend as DD and SIL are going there on Sunday to his parents Please?

smartie Yay!! One year down!! Congrats


I have sent DS3 out to take DS2 to work so others can use the only car we have out. He is also delivering cards.

DD and SIL have done all the veggies except potatoes. DS3 has bought the meat and cooked mince pies, DS2 is making starters tomorrow. So I have absolutely nothing to do!!

and yet again I have to thank Triker because I have a pan big enough to fit 4kg of Gammon

Fire wood and kindling stocked up, and sprout sticks brought in to defrost so that is the last messy job. Now working from the backdoor in, trying to do 15 minutes max of 'tickle' per room.

Upstairs will be done when we get back from the cinema. DH is on conference calls up there so can't really do much till later.

Essentials:
Wrap presents for each other with the children
Finish making the whiskey truffles for DH
Make the gingerbread house with the boys
Let DS1 make his chocolates for him to give to people
Do the itunes stuff so the Touches work then I can wrap them
Start getting things out of the freezer as per scary schedule

Morning ladies,

The white stuff is falling again:rolleyes:

Picked my big brother up from the station yesterday, roads were pretty awful but we took our time and delivered him safely to my parents. My mum was a bit overwhelmed i think! Was lovely to see him again.

Flying wise i have S&S'd the kitchen, scrubbed the sink and hob, emptied the bins and will do the oven after a cuppa.
