    Morning all! Cold and grey here but in a nice wintery way rather than rainy


    OH had to stop me putting up the colour changing reindeer in our kitchen the other night.i just love christmas lights.
    Its the reason i quite like dogsitting at xmas i have an excuse to walk around looking at peoples decorations without just being a weirdo walking through the estate:rotfl:

    So when can we put up our xmas decorations? Bit difficult looking a all the houses from the car, maybe I can persaude OH to get me a dog for xmas.;)
    I keep looking on gumtree at dogs, but they want silly money. I would get one from a rescue place, but don't like the fact they have to visit and spy on you a few times
    Be thankful for what you have because it could all be taken away tomorrow.;)

    hey aesop.
    I know how you feel.been so many bits going on this year I have been neglecting my internet pals a bit.sorry folks:o

    It's ok FT, we forgive you :D

    but real life is more important than the internet. if you let the internet take over it can ruin relationships and break up families.
