Oh NANAMIA that is such a lovely thing to say, i am so touched i have tears in my eyes you deserve it, you always say such lovely things to the lovelies on here and you have helped me so many times as well, i really feel like i am ending this year a different person than i was at the beginning of this year and its down to you and all the lovely people on here who have given me strength to get through things x



Oooh im starting With Love at Christmas today, i bought it for DD2 stocking last year, she loved it so gave it to me to read



JJ you say such lovely things about your mum, im sure she gets most of her strength and inspiration from you, oh your poor friend that is frightening, are you feeling any better?

CHRISSYG glad DD is better, ready for christmas
DEBNDOT that is great news everything is going well, i so hope next year is a great year for you, have fun on the santa train

Obviously, he's still very ill but it means we won't be celebrating our last Christmas with him around a hospital bed

That is fan flipping tastic news!

Popping on to say I hope you all have a lovely day tomorrow.
And Happy Birthday CHRISSYG .

Will post a link to the new thread later in the week.

Aww linky, thank you my lovely. I'm sure I will be lurking Christmas Day if you feel like popping on. Fingers crossed you have no troll run ins this year. If you don't come on, I do hope you have a lovely day. Remember its okay if you don't feel festive, just enjoy being with family. If you're feeling a little neglected by family, then pick yourself up and go into a different room with a tipple, some nibbles and a favourite movie or book. Spoil yourself, you work so hard all year that you need to be a little selfish, especially if the teens are being a bit self obsorbed, take a leaf from their book

Feeling a bit under the weather, so Christmas must be here

You would all be very proud of me - I spent £40 of my birthday money on clothes and then decided to buy myself a pricey pair of boots as a belated birthday present too I could get used to this being selfish lark lol

I hope you all have a lovely Christmas xxx

Good luck for tomorrow everyone. Hope everything goes well for everyone after all the hard work and you all get repaid. If not I agree get out a bottle and have lots of nibbles and remember it is only one day. OMO glad you are ok and thanks for all your hard work this year. Please don't stray from here on the big day like last year and you get some horror upsetting you!
I started today with some of us from SW going out after class and having scones or cream cakes as a bit of a treat-start as you mean to go on.!!!! Speak to you all soon.xxxx

Has anyone tried Google's Santa tracker? http://www.google.co.uk/santatracker/#/tracker/dashboard

I think I used the Norad phone app last year so not sure if the website is different or not
