    Hi everyone,
    Have been MIA for ages now as I've had a year of health issues.
    Feel up to re-joining in the NY, but I thought I'd pop into say Hi and to say I am going to get back into the NSD habit in January.
    Had a quick read through the thread - lots of familiar " faces"
    Hope you're all doing ok!


    you will always be rich enough to be generous.

    Welcome back, jintyb, you have been missed! But you are just in time for the egg nog and mulled wine, and dinner will be served soon - this time real roast turkey, not the Spam substitute!

    Igor - what's that smell? The Brussels sprouts?

    You put the sprouts on at WHAT time?

    So glad everyone loved the meal, apart from the sprout crematorium - not my responsibility, honest!

    Now, are we ready for tonight's panto?
    Oh yes we are!

    Hmm, I see BigMumma was late getting here - her Wishee Washee skirt has caught up in her bloomers at the back, and you can see the outline of her mini skirt underneath.......and she's forgotten to take her piercings out, tut tut tut!

    Oh, jolly good dance routine, kerri - or did you slip on a mince pie again? Hopefully nobody will have noticed.....And here comes Hubert, ready to be hitched up to the carriage.......Oh no! He's nicked the Fairy Godmother's sparkly stilettos!
    So that's why Igor has been wearing his wellingtons on stage.....

    Right, everyone, into the hall for the interval - it's kerri's pole dance showtime! Then the second half of the panto, with of course the audience participation song (I know a song that will get on yer nerves, get on yer nerves...)and the finale with the cocktails and fireworks show. Everything is planned to the last detail, nothing can go wrong.

    Ok, kerri, take it away up that tree......OH MY GAWD! What is THAT????????

    Whoops, sorry, stray bit of tinsel from last night :o

    Great to see you back Jinty x

    In the middle of trying to make hm oils for Xmas gifts, flipping bottles have really long necks, so they ended up with a load of crud in them when I put them through the dishwasher, cue much washing, rinsing and now another dishwasher cycle :mad: why are these things never straight forward? There's a reason we have shops that sell presents, argh. Now worried about the bottle I have half full and not closed yet. Just hope they use the oils quickly :o
