    Had a fab time, the meal was lovely. Felt a bit like Cinderella catching the bus home while everyone else went for more drinks but to be honest I'd had enough and the buses start being few and far between after 6pm. Didn't fancy standing at the bus stop freezing. Can't believe the bus broke down on the way home and we all had to get off and get on another one!

    Anyway happy December everyone :rudolf:

    It is important that we know where we come from, because if you do not know where you come from, then you do not know where you are, and if you don't know where you are, then you don't know where you are going. If you don't know where you're going, you're probably going wrong.

    I was home just after 5pm Fay which was earlier then he expected me :)

    Trying to motivate Mr SA to get up early so we can get into town before the crowds hit. Not having much luck with it at the moment. Will have to walk there and back as he'll need to take his scooter, don't fancy pushing him in the wheelchair. So really should be setting off soon .....

    Today will be taken up with town then tomorrow we need to move all our bedroom furniture into DD's room ready for the carpet on Tuesday. Plus the Christmas decorations will be going up this weekend too. Mr SA made a half hearted start yesterday.

    Have a great weekend everyone :)

    We were out for 6 hours today! Mr SA now has plenty of new things and is fairly happy although I think there might be more - his list seems to be endless!

    Town was a nightmare and he nearly knocked several people over. To be fair people were just walking in front of him it wasn't his fault. Thankfully he realises it's too busy to go again before Christmas.

    Looking forward to putting my feet up tonight. We've got the pizza and Prosecco for £10 deal from M&S. Then from tomorrow it's back to counting points until the next work Christmas meal.
