    Good evening everyone,

    lil-me - your new puppy is adorable, we dont have any pets, but would love one, maybe one day!!!!

    Would just like to thank everyone again for their birthday wishes, ive had a lovely day and those wishes have made it even more special!!!! Has been such a lovely surprise that so many have remembered/noticed and i really appriciate it.
    Well, ive got my cold box down from the loft, hopefully will get some bargains at Mr Ts tomorrow before we goto the pantomime to put in it. the only thing i really need is milk, but even if i dont get chance to get any, we should be ok until the shops open again.
    Have also stripped, washed and remade my bed, and everywhere is clean and tidy, although will do a quick whip round tomorrow morning after making Santa cookies, so that i can relax for the next few days.
    Right, going to watch the end of jack frost which is on itv2 at the mo, and then its SCD final, hope Matt wins!!!!
    Have a lovely evening everyone,
    Take care xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

    Crazychik sorry to hear about the bunny. I really hope the children don't take it too badly and it doesn't spoil their Christmas.
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

    Happy birthday Catowen...glad you've had a good day.

    Lil'Me, your wee puppy (no, actually she looks huge, so tall!) is absolutely gorgeous. I hope whoever was going to shoot her has accidentally shot themselves up the jaxxi - how could anybody be so utterly cold and callous?

    CrazyChik - sorry to hear about your bunny - it's always heartbreaking to lose a pet. I hope your children can enjoy their Christmas anyway. At least your bunny's pain is over.

    Around here is pretty sad too - a lot of cars have been coming and going to a neighbour's house all afternoon and evening. Their little child had been ill for many months, and has now died. I feel so bad for them, they must be totally distraught.

    Crazychik Sorry about bunny. You did your best, hope the kids don't take it too bad.

    Lil me I love dogs and Holly looks fun. ;)

    Cat I'm happy that your day was fab. Your'e one bonza sheila. :D

    Well it's Christmas Eve here now. Only 1 more sleep for me. :D Plans to do today are back in the kitchen, run around with the vac & mop, wash the dogs & help paint up the house if I have time. Sigh. Off to Mass tonight. Well coffee is drained so best make a start while it's cooler. Hope you all get a good nights sleep. Byeeeeeeeeee
    Don't worry about the world coming to an end today. It's already tomorrow in Australia. ;)

    It is so tragic to lose a loved one especially a child but at this time of year would be worse I imagine. You would always associate Christmas with it. Did she have cancer? Even to speak to her, words would be inadequate. We are all so blessed aren't we.

    Hi Crazychik

    Their child was little - must have been less than a year. He was always attached to some sort of breathing apparatus. I don't know the family except to say hello to, but know that they must be going through hell right now.

    Crazychik - don't feel bad about feeling bad about your bunny (IYKWIM) - he was still your family's little friend and his absence will be felt by all in your home.
  • So sorry about the bun Crazychich. We are soooooooooooo much bun here!
