    Afternoon all :D

    Just having a wee break from wrapping presents :p - the floor is covered with paper, ties, ribbon, tape, pile of gifts - am getting there, I think :p :j:j

    Ventured to supermarket t'other morn really just to stock up some freezer bits and few other bits n bobs (unfortunately stuff local stores didn't have).

    :eek::eek: What an eye-opener there!!!!!

    Would guess 50% of customers were fine (me included :p) yet the other 50% were the most GRUMPIEST SOUR/RUDE OLD/YOUNG FARTS I have ever encountered with their frantic quest to do humongous xmas food shopping :eek::eek: Luckily alfie has a good sense of humour and an awful lot of patience!!! :D Sorry about using the word 'farts' but it seemed rather appropriate!! :D:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::D

    What ever happened to the Season of Goodwill? :o

    Fresh fruit/veggies/milk only required now, thankfully from the lovely farm shop :):T:T:D

    Hope everyone is well (hugs to all) and many many congrats to all winners - lovely prizes! :j:j:j:j Very well done. :T:T

    Well done Alfie getting your wrapping done :D

    Know what you mean about Supermarkets at this time of year - I avoid them if I possibly can :eek: in fact haven't even been near any other shops as have done all Christmas pressies online ;)

    Puddy is now totally bored with the wrapping presents thing and just seen her upstairs, curled up in the middle of a nice comfy beanbag sending up the zzzzzz's with paws covering her face. :D :rotfl: xxx

    Hellooooooo!

    Sorry I was AWOL yesterday, had the work Xmas do which started at 2 and I was designated driver, so I had to leave the office at 1pm to get some of us over there. Was great fun, but there were some sore heads in the office this morning! haha I have gloated a little as I am hangover free (having stayed sober), but I did get the girls some diet coke as a hangover cure. :)

    ON a bit of wind down here. Only 2 more days in the office (Mon & Tues) and then it's closed until 2nd Jan! Woo!

    Hope you're all well! Congratulations to all winners! And good luck to everyone!

    No further wins here, but another koala arrived yesterday. I was very pleased, as that meant I had 2 ready to give to my colleague today for her boys (it was her last day in the office until the new year), so that was great timing! :)

    I think the Xmas food shopping is still to happen at our household, but am not sure if Mum went to do it earlier today. We'll see.
