    Oh FGS....it's a good job it's Christmas :mad: :)

    Im sat here wondering why DS1 is taking so long, I'm getting worried so I text him. I just had a reply......

    'I am at the Shell garage. I know I should have said sooner but I had a little bump last week. Is it safe to come home?'

    I told him that depends on the bump :cool:.......oh well :o:rotfl:

    ETA....Im just thinking that men usually overestimate, so small might mean really small?.....yes? :D

    Oh no! I'm liking your thinking though ;):D
    Hope it's nothing too serious.

    On that note I better get to my bed.

    Merry Christmas to you all and thank you for everything :A

    G'night all xx

    There's a fork in the road, which way will you go
    You standing still or will you step into the great unknown,
    Is yours to decide, this is your life.


  • Good night everybody, Turkey is out of the oven fingers crossed it will taste ok tomorrow. I hope you all have a lovely sleep and are ready for santa to give you all a treat in the morning.

    I certainly know scamps neighbours will have great treat.
    Mortgage debt 45,000. Thank you all for your help so far in helping me save to buy the house. I could not have done this without all your help.

    Evening all, yes I'm OK.

    DS1 vowing never to travel with Air France or KLM again.

    Their plane pulled out of landing at CDG, tried again, again aborted, went to Orly, tried landing there, couldn't, diverted to Toulouse. Sat on tarmac for 5 hours. Eventually flew back to Paris. Landed, no flights left to Manchester today. Haven't heard from him since then, was queueing at CS. So many people having their travel plans disrupted. Many in front of him in the queue couldn't get on other flights to their destination until Boxing Day :(

    I'm hoping he gets on one of the 3 flights to Manchester tomorrow, but with his phone dead and wifi over, don't know how I'll know!

    CalmSpirit, like your name, stay calm :) Your DS will arrive, albeit later than you'd hoped for, but he's still coming home :)

    DS2 and I are enjoying some festive treats, and a film. We've decided Christmas dinner can be on Boxing day, depending on what time DS1 needs collecting as that will be a 4 hour round trip to the airport. It's a festive meal to share, and share we'd rather do :)

    Off to research flights for tomorrow and Boxing day, will note down departure & arrival times. Then we're good to go when a message gets through.

    Wishing everyone a very Happy Christmas.

    Hope all the little ones have the best day ever, and can imagine nerfletDS3 when he sees and gets on, his trike :)

    Raise a glass to absent friends, and family. Rejoice in the happy times shared.

    Good night one and all :)

    (and I left the £10 turkeys.... no space anywhere to cook/store that!)


    :xmassmile Happy Christmas :xmassmile


    Oh dear. I suppose ds packed phone charger in case. Once cs have arranged overnight accomodation they should give your son a prepaid phone card so he can let you know. If he can charge phone then fee wifi in airport.
    They will also give him food vouchers.
    Generally look after customers well once they know there is no chance of flying. Plus ground planes have pilots and crew desperate to get home and there will be a lot of grounded planes tonight.

    Dd had a truely terrible day at work today. She said everything possible went wrong and one passenger wanted police called on landing due to homophbic remarks of another. Luckily she and pilot talked him out of it as would have meant serious delays and have to think of the people these delays affect.

    He will be home safely before long as hopefully planes will need repositioning and extra flights will run. You are doing the right thing just delaying christmas as it is about the 3 of you being together not a date on the calender.

    . I do think a chaise lounge is a good description of you though. Stylish yet comfortable and laid back :)

    May the odds be ever in your favour;)

    So that every single post that I contribute to this thread is on topic I would just like to say I am an elite 11+ member and I hear the unjust silence of my opinions whilst I am shopping in supermarkets mainly. Just sayin.
