What Christmas film is it Wuss? ...er, I mean Sue?
I love a weepie Xmas film. Bought a load last yr, I like the angel one where the mam thinks there's no such thing as Santa.

Hope the day goes quick for you Becks

I think my window lights will stay up now! Thank goodness for Sellotape! I was just telling DD how I used to wear a bit of selotape over my boobs to stop me pointing when I went out in winter! She was not impressed! :whistle:

It was called 'A Christmas Snow' wingo, it was a lovely story.

We always watch 'Love Actually' at Christmas, love that film, and always always watch 'A Muppet Christmas Carol' at some point.

I've heard of some uses for sellotape, but not THAT!

Hope the decorations stay up wingo, thats a novel way of keeping them up, dont peeps use drawing pins these days.

Sue, my DH is the one that cries at anything that's remotely emotional.

Becks, hope you head ache eases soon and your shift goes quickly.


Must get on and get some more comps done as have been out all morning.

Well, I was sure I came in here this morning and said HELLO to everyone but reading back I can not find the post so a belated good morning and a good afternoon. ( Have the advents finally driven me over the edge?)

Hope your head is better Becks.

Had a WEM for a Pumpizing game from This is Competitions so pleased with that.

LOL at the sellotape Wingo!!!! :rotfl::rotfl: I would be looking more to heavy duty masking tape plus a discrete body hoist It's an age thing, things kind of aren't where they are meant to be anymore :rotfl:

Oh! Yep, crying at films.:o Im the worst!!! All the soppy xmas films, Jack Frost etc, bambi, Nanny McFee, anything really. I even sob when the John Lewis advert is on with the wee snowman and his snow woman and his little expressions!. I'm a lost cause - that's for sure!!! I think it all stems from the Lassie films many years ago in black and white (can anyone remember them?) - oh and the Incredible Journey, with the three furries - needed a box of tissues for that one!!!! My lovely daughter has given me the War Horse book and dvd.

Its such a gutty story (they saw the production also at the West End, said it was absolutely wonderful). But, I can't bring myself to watch it yet, Im going to have to build up to it - and have mega box of kleenex by my side!!!!! xxxxxxxxx

I can't watch anything where there is a danger of animals getting hurt. I can remember one film where there were about a dozen people in a lifeboat and there wasn't room/food enough for all of them to survive so they drew straws over who would drop out of the boat..........not a problem for me. When each of the losers dropped over the side I was fine.....then one of the occupant's dog jumped in after him !!! OMG did I blubber

Hi. A couple of moths ago I set my Sister up doing the comps, she only does the daily ones. Anyway she has a WEM to say she had won tickets to Rockin Around the Christmas Tree, including lunch and tea at Wickstead Park. Unfortunately it is for next week which is when she is having a hip replacement and I have mentioned before. She sent them an email telling them to let someone else have the tickets and they have replied saying they will extend it to next years show. This is her first win so she is over the moon.

Bishopgirl - well done on your win.

Glad you have had a good day Katie.


Wingo - hope your decks are still hanging up.


Alfie - glad you are so cheeful, love hearing your takes.

Me too I can't watch all the wonderful nature films because I get so upset with the survival thing. I know its nature, and I know all the critters have to kill, to eat and survive. But oh my goodness, just can't watch any of them. Especially when you see young uns' trying to survive with predators about. :eek: I want to go and save them all .

Is it just two weeks today for xmas??? Two weeks today we will all be happily stuffed with dinner, xmas pudding and prob at this time of night, be tucking into turkey and stuffing sarnies. xxxxxx

Oh, wonderful news re your sisters win. God bless her, and how lovely that the prize is being extended to next year. :T:T Many congrats on her win, will be a lovely event to look forward too

I do wish your sis all the best, she will be fine. Send her my very best wishes and hugs for a speedy recovery. I have a friend just down the road from me who had a hip replacemnt just 4-5 months back. She said it was the best thing she had ever had done. She now walks around quite freely with no pain and has a new lease of life. I said I would race her down the road when i get rid of my crutch (oops - I mean my stick) :rotfl: xxxxxxx
