I gave a child at school a scarf as she has a sore throat & due to family problems isn't dressed properly for the weather, it took her ages to grasp the concept of the scarf being a gift then rushed around showing it to everyone, she also asked a staff member to help her write a thank you note, there wasn't a dry eye in the place.

Aw Hester that's so nice of you. Makes me to think of what that poor childs home life is like though......

I am up for an impromptu hen night for NPM :beer: I'll bring some red wine (H's), some twinks and if it sets some baileys fudge

A little departure from the Xmas theme and something in honour of NPM's big day tomorrow

I love this song :j:j (not sure if you're getting wed in an actual chapel but who cares )

Off to see DS in his Christmas production this morning. he's a star. I am hoping he does really well, a friend saw her son in the same thing yesterday and said DS was really good with his singing. Cross your fingers he's not standing picking his nose like normal :rotfl:
Popping out to local shops after and need to clean bathroom. And some more Xmas crafting <rollseyes> it's never ending :rotfl:

Tea is a makeshift as I have tap class tonight

Hugs, spoons and high fives all round. Have a warm and safe day OS or not.

Edited to add:

Bramble - well done on the grocery spends :T:T

camelot - Frozen flannel on the bath :eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:

Morning All,

I am definitely up for a Hen Night, I've got a couple of bottles of Schloer in the fridge which will do me and Tappers, and I'll make some brownies when I'm doing the ones the boys asked for later.

NPM thinking about you today, don't be down, get hyper YOU'RE GETTING MARRIED TOMORROW:j:j:j:T:T:T

JackieO hope your brother is OK, and glad to hear things are looking better for Mioliere's BIL too!

ESMF hugs to you, I do the burning worries trick on a regular basis and it definitely works for me.

I need to go out and check on the bird food I put out yesterday, I put out lots of nuts, raisins sultanas and chopped apple, I hope they found it all, I can see them struggling in the trees behind the house, but haven't seen any near the garden for a couple of days, I am a bit woried about them, its about -6 out there just now I think I'll get OH to pick up some lard today and make up fat balls and then I can leave them on the fence posts where they might see them a bit better. Any other suggestions - remember I can only get to the local shop? There is no improvement on the local road condition here yet.

OS for today is cleaning, I am struggling to get on top of things with everyone in the house, so I think they will all be given strict instructions to keep them busy today. Making Brownies, washing clothes and sorting out dinner which I haven't decided on yet. Oh and finishing the online Christmas shop I did last night at last!:j

Hope everyone is OK, stay safe please and warm!

Hugs spoons and Hi5's all round.

:bdaycake:Happy birthday Bramble!
Still awful looking outside on the road, I will need to go and declutter the car of its snowy coat in a bit, although no intentions of driving today I am due back at work tomorrow- how I will get out of our street, never mind onto the motorway is currently a mystery!
Keep warm and safe, everyone!

Happy Birthday, Bramble! :bdaycake:Have a great day!

Hester - that brought a lump to my throat. How lovely that you were able to make such a difference to someone's circumstances.

Thanks for the continued good wishes for my BIL.

RedRuby - is it fancy dress tonight, then? I'll see if I can find a flight this afternoon!

Tru - hope little piggy gets better soon.

Still hissing down with rain here; so much for moving to France for a better climate, or so DH says. Better climate - my a***!
