  • Morning all :)

    Our post is all over the place at the moment. I had some at 7pm on Thursday and then 8.30 this morning. Very strange :D

    I'm taking the kids to our local Christmas market to buy presents for their friends thisafternoon. We managed to get the tree and decs up earlier too. Not leaving much time for comp entering though, might be a late night, haha.

    Good luck all and have a good weekend xx

    May you all have lots of luck, Emma xx

    Well done everyone with the wins so far. I really don't know how you are all managing to keep up!! I am end dating, adventing, dailying, and tweeting and trying to keep on top of it all not having much sleep TBH! hey ho. Had some really lovely wins, only one 'biggie' but the rest are really lovely, very grateful for anything at all obviously even a Koala! I have been so so lucky have had 20 wins so far this month (that is obviously including small ones too).

    The christmas market sounds just lovely and I have no idea at all what else is going on, I will try to look in the Inn when I have a spare five minutes. Had a rare lie in this morning till 8 am which was lovely.

    Good luck all xx
    MAY THE ODDS BE EVER IN YOUR FAVOUR

    Hope everyone is having a good afternoon. I have been having probems with lappy and not got anything done. Came back after a walk and could only get connected to FB and Twitter - nothing else! Messed about with Router for ages before realising Hudl and Phone were working fine. I had downloaded Safari to see what it was like and that must have caused a problem. Anyway had to do a system restore and hopefully all fine now. So annoying, especially with so many comps to do.

    Great you got it fixed elle. I have one with a cracked screen and did wonder about getting it fixed but as it really needs a new battery too I thought it would be too expensive.
    Don't know my way around this lappy so was a bit worried about how to fix it. Knew my way around the last one really well as no-one could work out where its memory was all vanishing too so spent hours working it out and then got help on here to sort it out.

    Sounds like you have had a very productive day Alfie , good for you. Must feel good knowing the garden is well tidied up for the winter.

    It's been pretty quiet in here all day, everyone busy I guess.

    I have had my dinner and now relaxing with a wee glass of red and looking forward to Strictly on the TV ;)

    Enjoy the evening everyone.
