:j Ooooh I'd forgotten about the party! What a lovely surprise! I've just baked a very indulgent choccie cake using MrT value sponge mix and have fish and chips cooking now... I will just get myself a G&T to get in the mood and I'm all set! :beer:

PS I've got loadsssss of matchmakers as well

Edit: ok, swift wash and brush up, fleece jammies on, fish and chips on the table, G&T in hand... I know how to live, me!

Good evening

I feel awful, really hideous , been back and forward to docs for months now and I am just so tired of constant illness. Anyway moan over

In from work and I have put on a wash, the dishwasher and the veg for tomorrows lasagne is currently roasting in the oven. When the dishwasher finishes I am going to start making my curry for this evening.

I will be popping in for the party, to celebrate I will be mulling some wine, nibbling mince pies (smothered in cream) and putting up the tree while chatting to you fabulous fellow messies

OK - who sings this flipping Xmas song thats stuck in my head, one line goes like this. . . .

Its beginning to look alot like Christmas

I just need to be able to hear it once and then I'll be able to move on - got that 1 line going over and over in my little brain and I'm so sick of it!!

love wff's idea of a Christmassy theme.....:j ...also thought it might be fun to get to know each other a bit better, you know, likes, dislikes, that sort of thing, although I guess it's not very festive so maybe scratch that:o

Rummer - aww hugs for you, you sound really fed up - time to go back to the Doc and refuse to remove your butt from the chair till he gives you something to help. Its so wearing feeling ill for so long and it brings you right down which doesn't help. Sod the cooking etc, grab a glass and just join in - or do the cooking after a few glasses - much more fun

Due to 5am starts during the week, and putting up with a day loaded with stroppy teenagers (who I actually love dearly, and wouldn't work with anyone else!!) I am usually comatose by 8.30pm I will do my best as it's Friday, however - but am here as part of the "warm up" crew! :cool:

Rummer, sorry you're feeling poorly still - I still have my cold, and it's a chesty one so I can't go to London to visit the sick relative this weekend again. I feel bad about that but can't help it, so I will just have to make the most of my weekend anyway.

I'm a bit undecided about what decorations to put up - I think probably just a few lights for me this year. I have a large tropical type tree that resides in the living room and that will very likely be my Christmas tree! Might go and root the lights out in a min.

((((hugs Rummer)))):(:(:( hope you get to the bottom of it soon :(:(

erm - don't know Helen, I only know that song from that advert - whatever it was.....:o

eta - the warm-up crew - I like that a lot!
