STILL raining here, downpipe drain seems to be bubbling a bit from a join with the downpipe itself, but at least it doesn't seem to be overflowing like the other night. Can't quite believe it's 4th jan already but looking forward to debt busting this year.Feb 2015 NSD Challenge 8/12JAN NSD 11/16

Morning CW and everyone else
No rain here my its extremely windy!
We have a fake traa and i dont really do tinsel as the tree is only 4' and we have lots of little decs to go on it so i dont have little bits to clear up.BUT the hall if full of pine needles as a neighbour took their real tree out the other day and so we have been carting needles in from the communal stair! There is no escape from the Christmas clean up!:rotfl:0 -
