Just read this and thought...Staff.......were is my staff??
I let her out to wee about half an hour ago....oh no, forgot to let her in again and we have no side gate!!!
Ran around calling her in case she had gone back to bed, called for her at the front, then saw a shivering heap at the back door.
When I let her in she did the crazy dog thing, tearing around the house and making noises, the carpets have claw marks in every room, lol.......silly Nanny (she's really my sons dog so I'm nanny)!!
and a thanks to Tweets from Skye the very cold staff who has now gone up to get in bed with my dd2 xxx

Glad she hadn't escaped you naughty mummy. Saying that I have done it thought she had come in and she was still in back garden.

She amazes me how she does the crazy dog thing, My JR or Irish Terrier never did the crazy mad dog :rotfl::rotfl:

I can't believe my Mum! She's spent a bloody fortune on the Christmas shopping and hasn't even got the turkey yet! Basically she's spent so much we may as well never have had the £75 voucher. She got me loads of cider (we have tons of booze already and I don't really drink) and party food I didn't ask for. The £75 off was supposed to make our shop cheaper but she's overcompensated so much it's just a normal (expensive) shop.

Just when I thought I was getting through to them :mad:

I feel your pain too...the Mrs is the same, buys a load of food for xmas evening and boxing day that no-one eats as they are too stuffed after dinner and would prob go to waste if I didn't hoover it up!!;):eek:

this year instead of giving her the money to waste wantonly, I got all the food myself using C&C, APG etc

It went as well as it could have done, saw people I've not seen for a long time, saw people I'd rather not have seen too

The funniest thing happened at the club. Both of my brothers ex wives were there :rotfl: :rotfl:

Glad it went as well as expected QOC...

What was the good news you had earlier!?:)

If anyone has a Costco card, I can recommend paying them a visit as they have Pandoro Cake at just £1.97. It is a 1KG cake, in a lovely tin and is the ideal thing to take round if you are visiting people. Also, the cake has been baked in a star shaped mould, so you can also cut the cake into slices horizontally and by rotating them create a christmas tree cake, decorated with cream etc like this...

An absolute steal for under £2.

Beautiful cat - looks like my Marmaduke

Feeling a bit upset at the moment as one of my lot is having an op as I write and it could be nasty. He is called Sam and is an oldie although you wouldn't think so if you saw him and such a sweetie

Hope the op goes well.

Just been out to hunt for some jars of mincemeat, to make some Mince Pie Pops, couldn't find any anywhere apart from really expensive jars of Tesco Finest ... then called into B&M on the off-chance, and they stock Mincemeat with Dark Chocolate, 400g for 69p = result:)

Fingers crossed for you, I still never received any confirmation emails, and no despatched email on 2nd order, but looked on account and it said, despatched, so took the chance and it was in store.
