seafarers_wife Brill news about your OH. Will you celebrate Christmas in January? DS3 is home now, back at college.
Lil_me I am doing as you, reading a bit, thinking , 'I must do something' and forgetting to post
vanilla I hope it was you. Great news about your daughter going into a different class.
pigpen I hope you get your deliveries soon. We have had another go astray. I think sometimes ours are put in porches of empty houses somewhere on the fellside. I don't expect anyone dares to venture down our hill in a van.
vanilla I hope you manage to get your burst pipe sorted very soon. Knowing where our stopcocks are might need to be added to list of Winter preparations.
Today's list
wrap 3 presents
write some cards for fsmily
rag rug !!
Does anyone know of an online pattern for a knitted snood/ buff that is cool enough for DD aged 24?
