    :santa2: Morning!

    Culpepper - It's biscuit baking day for me too! I keep eating them!:o I also picked up one of the £7 turkeys and popped it into the freezer and it seemed like a good deal.

    Decoration for day 11 is .......golden tinsel around the clock on the chimney.

    I have run out of tea bags :eek: so need to get to aldi for those and also cat food as that is Holly's favourite, she turns her nose up at whiskers :rolleyes: I guess I am lucky to have such a money saving cat.

    ((((hugs)))) to all those feeling poorly.

    :beer: Congratulations fo Mr and Mrs PP!

    Hope everyones day goes well!

  • Morning morning morning!!! :hello:

    Not really good morning, at w**k and it’s p’ing it down outside and had trouble sleeping last night! As soon as I got into bed and lay down I somehow developed bl**dy heartburn!!! So that coupled with trying to sleep but it not working set me up for a bit of a grumpy one today!!!:rolleyes:

    And I’m not feeling Christmassy at all, even though we’re talking next weekend! :eek: The Christmas spirit hasn’t hit me over the head yet! :rolleyes: Had all good intentions to be organised this year and to a degree I am, but it seems beyond me at the moment that it’s Christmas at the end of NEXT WEEK!!! No matter how much I keep telling myself! Haven’t sorted out boyf’s presents yet, need some ideas. We have this thing where we set a limit of £20 each. Need to start thinking today methinks……. I just can’t be @rsed with Crimbo this year!:o

    Anyway, enough of my ranting!!!:o :p

    Brekkie was yoghurt and a banana
    Lunch will be HM broccoli soup and a roll
    Dinner is at my dad’s and I think we’re having a Chinese!! Yummy!:cool:

    Been sorting the flat this weekend, is really really coming along. Took delivery of a dehumidifier on Friday and it’s making a real difference. I was having a problem with condensation and damp and the beginnings of mould, but seems to have knocked it on the head now, thankfully!! Just got to see how it affects the electric though. Might need to rethink the budget.

    Have a good Monday everyone!!:D

  • Just back to say that curiosity got the better of me so I popped back over to Saturday's thread to see what awful thing Moggins's OH had done... and I am shocked. Moggins, I hope you have it out with him (no inappropriate pun intended) and he realises how insensitive and out of order he was. (((Hugs))).
