    Well done to your LO on winning pms :T
    I've just bought DD's mag, I haven't bought it for a few weeks. So will have to go hunting for wherever she's put it!

    Lol @ the age thing Alfie! :D well at least they'll keep your knees warm! :D
    I remember the incredible journey too, I have the Homeward Bound versions. The kids love the animal films.

    Sue, I'm a real weepie person now, I still cry at Lassie even though I've seen it umpteen times! My son always cries at I Am Legend when the dog dies. Great film.

    Well done on your sisters win Sylvia :j I bet that's cheered her up before her op :)

    My dads the same Sylvia, always blames me for sales calls! I only enter in my address now if I enter comps for him!

    Enjoy your party tonight Katie :)

    Loving the Santa down the chimney Fire**fly :D you don't see many traditional chimneys nowadays, my kids used to ask how he would get down the chimney. I now put fake snow down, can't do it this yr though with jasper...he'll eat it!

    Morning!!!!!! Jings you peeps all stay up so late - Im jealous - usually by 9pm im sending up the zzzzz's - 10pm at a push.

    "Lol @ the age thing Alfie! :D well at least they'll keep your knees warm! :D" :rotfl::rotfl: ........... Wingo .... I was thinking more of ankle warmers! :D:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    FF, hope your wrist is ok now :A and Dreams well done getting that parcel!!!! If I went to my shed to look for something, it would be like one of them bush tucker trials especially in the dark! :eek::eek
    Big spiders and things in there :eek::eek: Doubt postie would venture near!!!!

    Sheils, well done on all your wins!!!! Are you sorted for xmas? Think im nearly sorted - sort of - but keep making lists for more things!! I don't spend much at xmas, try to stay sensible on pressies etc. But it's the food thing! You would think the end of the world was nigh!! Stocked up freezers so it's just i think, fruit and veggies, that sort of thing. Think the freezer stuff will keep me going for quite a few months :D If I get snowed in come Jan/Feb ..... I will survive! :D:rotfl::rotfl:

    Becks, hope you have a good day, stay warm and before you know it, the shift will be done. :A

    Yep I luv cats! Same here - my wee cat doesn't go out in this weather, her wee tootsies would be frozen. She doesn't like going out anyway, she likes staying with mum and enjoying the good life, food, sleep, food, toys, playing, winding me up!, food and finding the warmest spot she can, and yes, she takes the best spots!!!! Love her!!!:)

    I have an admission - I have a serious fetish in these cold winter months to keep me warm, steaming hot and puts fire in me bones and I can't get enough of it!!.:eek: (Wingo ...... behave yourself now, its not what you think! :D :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:) It's ....................... Crosse & Blackwell Leek & Potato Soup!!!!!! :D Yep, the way to go forward!!! Love it!!!

    Have enough here to sink a battleship!!! I'm easily satisfied!!!! :D:) xxxxx

    Brrrrrrrr, morning all, hope everyone is keeping warm.

    I've just gone to put the recycling out and couldn't get the lid open, don't think I'll be going anywhere today!

    On the plus side the roof of our conservatory is looking so beautiful, isn't nature amazing? It looks like an underwater world with waving seaweed, so pretty.

    wingo and Alf, it has a good ring to it, have you thought of going on the stage? The next one leaves in 10 minutes :D

    Have a lucky day everyone, at least a few of the Advents end today :)

    Morning all,

    Slept in (for me) this morning so haven't any comps done.
    I made some nice vegetable soup yesterday Alf which we all enjoyed.
    Have a lucky day everyone. Must get on.

    Sorry folks, not been around much, I am sure struggling to keep my head about the water. What with the Advents as well and trying to get sorted for Christmas before I go to stay at Sister's next Monday.

    Really need to paint the stair rail and clean the hall carpet today, will it get done? Not quite sure:( The trouble is the more comps the DH does the more of the housework and cooking I have to do:(


    B.Sue, when did you say your birthday was, I usually make a note when people mention it but forgot.


    PMS well done on your win


    Becks, I sure feel sorry for you standing in the cold at that ungodly hour. Big hugs and thinking of you doing all the extra time, been there done that, and then you loose most of it in tax and NI etc.


    ILUVC Well done on the £5 ebook code wouldn't mind one of those with having got Kindle's for 2 of the DGK's. Having said that probably wouldn't know how to use them if I got them:o



    FireFly - are you recovered now with your wrist, bet you are all organised for Christmas by now, you seem a very organised person. What's for elevensis today? - please. I figured that if I eat all the nice things on here I wont eat as many in reality and might lose some weight - or I can blame you all for my weight gane :rotfl::rotfl: Are you still managing to feed your spugies and squids?


    Alfie your soup sounds lovely, what mischief is your puddy up to today?


    Made a nice bit pot of spinach and sweet potato soup yesterday ready for lunch.


    Hope you all have a really lucky day

    It's on Friday Sylvia, the day we get the pup :) I don't do the Google thingie, it's not SueMaggie, can't think of anyone else, sorry.

    Just had a mention on Twitter, I won the GlamUK perfume yesterday, the one where you tweet and email. I think it's the Marc Jacobs Dot perfume, very nice :)
