    Yay lot of lovely reading on here a million rudolf kisses to your noses - and may none of them turn out to be lightbulbs (your noses not the kisses, thats just silly)!

    Made it as far as the big smoke of highlands (Inverness) - finally tucked up all cosy - and had managed to get an audio book for the car on cd so had a lovely if long drive down and a free book to listen too - very mse.

    Hugs - hoping to catch up with sil for a cuppa early birds and that will be lovely and free too!

    Glad you made it to Inverness Pippi, I've seen a few posts from you this morning (including one on my diary, thank you!!!) so I know you're still cosy, have a beautiful, beautiful time, and come back all refreshed and happy.

    Happy Christmas Pippi -:xmastree: and everyone else too! :xmassign:

    Sorry have been MIA for a while and when I do catch up I don't have a lot to say so haven't posted, but have been reading along and loving all the cheery stories, coleslaw dreams, adjustable feet etc.

    Hope you all have a brilliant holiday season and looking forward to the new year whenever it is considered to start! Shortest day/ winter solstice today/tomorrow so we are passing the turn of the year and it's onwards and upwards to spring again from now on! :T
