Here's one for JM!

When you get to the link, click on the picture of Beethoven to do a fantastic little interactive quiz of arranging sections of sheet music to make his most famous songs! It's great!

(You have to be able to read music to some extent).

8 days!!! Oh man. How did that happen? I seem to have gone from mega prepared to very disorganised. Tree is still not up.

Must have been the night for being awake. My body seems to have decided that between 3 and 4 is the best wakeup time for me. 2 more stress filled deadline looming days at work before I can have a much needed holiday.

Happy Thursday Team WaS!!

It is Thursday, yes?

It is Thursday, code!

Birdie, I have Gryffindor socks and a scarf to wear and I am taking my wand:)

Seems I wasn't the only person having trouble with sleep last night *props open eyes with matchsticks*.

I did manage to post some Christmas cards, presents are on the way to niece and nephew (thank you disney and amazon respectively) so I've at least got the Christmas ball rolling in the right direction at last .

The Beethoven Google Doodle Game is lovely!

How can it be 8 days until Christmas?! :eek: Even the weather isn't ready, it was quite mild on my walk to work this morning! At least I feel like I'm finally semi-sorted with DH's presents now, I panic ordered some Converse trainers for him last night (20% off code with free delivery!) so along with an aftershave and some little fillers I think he's got more than enough. Just need to buy my poor neglected child some presents, we gave all of our ideas to the grandparents and aunts/uncles and left ourselves with nothing to buy him!!! At least he won't know this year if Father Christmas is a little stingy. :rotfl:

Hehe, fab! There's a bit where you learn/practice casting spells so will be good to have your own wand for that!

code - I've gone from organised to very much not too! It started off so well... and now there's like a week left and I think to need to think of other things for my parents (because my sister is blooming useless) and there's no way I'm going shopping at the weekend... at this rate they'll end up with a picture made from pasta (that's still cute when you're in your 30s right??)

I was all enthusiastic about my hampers. Now it all seems like far too much work. I need to wrap presents for tomorrow when I get home tonight so going to have to make a hamper. Nothing like leaving it to last minute. Codemonkey, procrastinator in chief reporting in for duty...once I've organised my sock drawer and stopped staring at the wall.

So tired. If it wasn't for this stupid deadline, I'd just stay home and try to sleep. As it is, today is going to be dedicated to energy drinks and caffeine just to get through.

Tea - get them some tasty treats. Everyone loves a cheeseboard, don't they?

Another one here who couldn't sleep (again) last night Code, I think my natural wake up time seems to be about 3-4am too. Well I say wake up time, but that all depends whether or not I've dropped off in the first place!

I haven't got the tree up yet either. Not bothered tbh. I might bring my Christmasy ornaments out (candle holders, snow globe etc), but that's about it. I've even given up opening my advent calendar! Bah Humbug!
