  • Hey there I logged on to see all these gawgus messages and thought, you know what you lot are great.

    Thank you so much. DS still hasnt' landed but not long now. DD popped by today and she's offered to take me xmas shopping next week.

    Cheerylass she offered to do 'fakemas' when they're home in Jan. Its just that I miss eating with them I guess.

    :)

    I'm off to bed now (think I'm coming down with something, hence the glum-nickers on) so I thank you heartily for the lovely wonderful friendship and spirit-keeping-uppers of friends that you are.

    Hugs and billions of them.

    L (()) for you too poor lassie. RT thank you lots for you too. Greying most kind me dear, sometimes me poor emotions get the better of me. Soz about that. KC thank you and TRG has indeed packed me off to bed with cuddles and we'll make the most of it. Maddiemay thanks about the hens, circular fat ball feeder you say, hmm, interesing. Beanie thank you lovely x Caz, I've only ever seen one great tit in 14 years in Orkney, never seen a bluetit there. Starnac you're so clever with those costumes and the hens all look like Greta now. They look ace. 3 eggs today too.

    Pips - the idea of 'fakemas' tickles my fancy :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    I've asked OH if we can have one in January as over the real holidays we'll be finishing cleaning up the 'weekend' ;) house so it can go on the market!

    I think you may have started a trend!:D


    (ya'll know we are not that fancy as to have a real weekend house don't cha? - it's the in-law's place!)

  • Thanks guys! KC its not come to much but I'm a bit wabbit, think my body is fighting it off.

    M21 thank you :)

    RT - fakemas seems the way forward. :) ps I knew it was not really a 'second home' ;)

    the dug did want his stick back KC! what you can't see is me guarding my writing with my foot as he tries (for the thirteenth time) to run across my writing in the sand.

    Morning all sorry day's gone, spent this am working on a presentation for tomorrow.

    :)

    Lunchtime. What are we, the collective having today.

    :rotfl:

    I read of course,

    jambalaya with skittles, for pudding.

    So I wondered what you'd had before hand and why with the skittles in your jambalaya.

    :D

    Gotta love a bit of crazy brain action.

    I'm still lunch-less must sort that out.

    I'm starved. Only porrige today so far.

    I read that too :o but I confess I didn't know what jambayala was and with it starting with 'jam' it seemed perfectly feasible that it might go with Skittles :o :rotfl: :rotfl:

    I had salt and vinegar rice cakes with soft cheese :rotfl: followed by mince pie and custard :D Mmmmm. Might go and have another mince pie now :o
