    Cheers joanthebone, you too. I wonder how many lurkers we have here...? Come and say happy Xmas lurking types.

    I think as this thread only has 4000 replies but over 37, 000 views, that might finish the thread toot sweet.;)

    Are they unique viewers? I sort of assumed every time anyone dropped in for a catch up that that was another view?

    Anyone who can see easy, quick, have a look. Sun rise here this morning has been glorious and is just heavenly now.

    Quick, look!


    A payback for shorter days is that so many more people can see the sunrise, and the red lights in them are so often more wonderful. :). What a privilege to be able to see such beauty.

    I don't know. It's a bit vague. I presumed a lot of it's us, looking at the end of one page and then the start of the next and then replying. So that might count as two visits. Our threads are consistently amongst the most-highly-visited in this subforum but having seen the others...........
    Tells us lots about the decline of the telly and going out in this online age. :o

    Must be lots of converstaions starting with "Hey get off that laptop- I've got to find out what the mushrpoom-haters are saying to the mushroom lovers on that online forum". :D

    The glow through the bathroom window is almost ethereal. You'd think the glass was stained.

    Facebook feed full of beautiful sunrises from around the country :)

    Do you season the avocado?

    Nope, nor do I put peanut butter with it lir, which I have tried and like; however avocado is perfect on its own!

    Seems I will now hear about the job tomorrow (date pushed back a third time). Was prepared for it this time though.

    Fingers crossed.

    Fingers crossed for you, they aren't half waffling about.

    lir, if you feel it's the right time, then it's the right time. I'm like you and can't see the point of carrying on when the future is going to be painful, far better to let them go whilst they still have some quality left.

    As for Chinese Cresteds....I called up to see a friend one day to find a neighbour and friend busy loading 16, yes 16, of them into a not very large car to take to a dog show. They were lovely dogs with a very pleasant disposition.

    It was a very beautiful sunrise this morning. The very high cloud base was pink, contrasting with the pale blue showing through. Everything is glistening with frost, too. Beautiful, but rather chilly. I'm back in bed with the duvet pulled up.
    No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?

    How cute....I bet that bed is warm at night!

    If I were to get one, and I won't be, I would be getting a powderpuff ( and some good clippers)
