Yup no snow here either. Just had a bunch of wind and rain all day, makes me want to hibernate with a pile of my Christmas chocolate..

My main tree is coming down tomorrow. I can't stand having it up any longer, plus it needs to come down before my work order arrives on Monday. Other decorations can wait until DD gets home (Tuesday) then she can help. I want everything except the window cleared & away before New Year. I like to start each year with a completely clean house if I can as it also means less rushing about before her going back to school The house will look so bare!

Nicki, before you clean your window could you post a photo of it please? You didn't post the one you did last year, and I really wanted to see it - you are just so talented. I wish I could paint the way you do.

Wow , lovely new thread and brilliant links - great job!

Thanks for all your lovely messages of supports , you guys are a lovely bunch of people!

I arrived home later afternoon on Xmas eve, then I had a ton of wrapping to do as well as last minute shopping (I was determined to do it lol) I pulled it off and everyone I saw on Xmas day and Boxing day all had a wrapped and tagged gift .

Its magical being out although my life is being fuelled by morphine mainly amongst other drugs lol! They wont know for a while yet if this new device in my chest will settle things but fingers crossed! Fred has left me a big bald patch and another scar the naughty little thing , however the doctor who removed him let me keep him!

Anyway , I am glad I managed to get back on and post! I am sending hugs , love and positive vibes all round! I am blessed to be part of this thread with such lovely people!

I hope you really want to know.......it was the uncle (I think he was an uncle, if not he was the dad's best mate - he was involved in all the searches and always at the house anyway). I enjoyed the story but felt it could have been done in less episodes because it was so drawn out. Also don't like the real Dr Who (David Tennant) not being strong and decisive lol.


Had a lovely Christmas but it's the preparation and the actual days that do it for me, once Boxing Day is done then it's all over - tree and decs will be down tomorrow.

OMG I'm rubbish at guessing I thought it would be th r vicar!!!! In complete shock!! I agree with you about david being the true doctor I loved it when he did the one off with matt smith and John hurt. I hoped he was going to swap with matt somehow! !!!

I hate taking the decorations down it looks so bare and dreary. I aim for just after bew year before I go back to work. Its so sad as it all comes down. I didn't want the elves to go as it was!!!

Congratulations to Newthrift:T
Marvellous Christmas here, lovely quality time with lots of extended family. Boys were spoiled rotten by everyone. Both have been very good boys too. Currently drowning in a sea of toys :rotfl:
Personalised calendars (pics of the boys) were loved by all who received them and "grown up" nieces and nephews loved their couples cinema vouchers. (2 tickets, two food vouchers and two drinks vouchers in a Cinema reel tin) wish I'd taken pics of the wrapping too, looked good if I do say so myself.
Misread the time on Christmas morning so got up at 6am. Only realised after my shower. Everyone else still asleep so I had a good hour with a very nice cup of coffee and my book. (Carole Matthews: "With love at Christmas"- loved it). Really appreciated the peace and was giggling at the book, then I was bright-eyed and blow-dried before the boys woke up about 8. Good start to the day
