    Phew! Well my mum cooked dinner tonight as a 'treat' for me, but it was more trouble than doing it myself, but it was very very nice. A very expensive and large delicious piece of beef.

    I'm so tired.

    Hope you all enjoy the next days.

    Hi guys,

    Looks like Santa has a problem at the mo, hope it doesn't make him late...:rotfl::rotfl:


    santa_flat.jpg

    It's been a busy old day, LO has gone down with whatever the other two had and has been sporting a temp and asleep for most of the afternoon. He managed to sneeze right in my face when I took his temp so I guess if I'd dodged it I haven't now. :mad:

    The house is clean, beds stripped and changed, all washing done, a small pile of ironing hidden next door,;) all veggies and preps done, table done, pressies down and ready and a cold one in my hand. :beer: :T:T

    Thank you for thinking of us at this time, it means a lot to me - you guys are great.

    Cranky, hugs to you and the house elf, I will be thinking of you. xxx

    Pen-pin, I hope you are having a good time. Hugs to you too. xxx

    Sleep tight OSers and I hope tomorrow isn't too stressful for any of you. xxx

    Smoky, xxx

    Been a very festive day here with visitors, one or two of which have left slightly inebriated!:D (sp?)

    Ham cooked and smells wonderful - turkey is being cooked by DD1, Everything else prepared. Am just watching the Carol concert with the Troops on tv then having an early night!

    Hope everyone has a peaceful and Happy Christmas day tomorrow, thank you all for the help, friendship and support you have shown me this year - you really have made a difference in a sometimes difficult year.
