... by spending more or less time on here .

Only joking .

We all have a range of hobbies and interests online and in RL - some people are glued to Facebook all day, others texting, on Twitter or spending time on other pursuits including on here. We all have our own balance that we are comfortable with, others may differ and sometimes the balance shifts depending on RL demands and what is going on in terms of offers and glitches. We do not have to agree with everything everyone does, RL is just the same and I suspect we are more likely to ignore in RL and move on.

I must be operating in my own little bubble as I thought there has been a reasonable balance between RL banter and glitches on here recently and, bar a few exceptions, the mood has generally been positive since the launch of the new thread with some new and existing members returning (though some noticeable regulars missing which is always sad). We have had a reasonable run of glitches and offers recently too which is always welcome (MSM seem to have given up on Cashback though and TCB are only marginally better on groceries !).

Hopefully this thread can remain positive/supportive with even more new and former posters feeling able to join in. I hope we do not allow it to deteriorate again. We have been warned.

A Visit from St. Nicholas
BY CLEMENT CLARKE MOORE
'Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house
Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse;
The stockings were hung by the chimney with care,
In hopes that St. Nicholas soon would be there;
The children were nestled all snug in their beds;
While visions of sugar-plums danced in their heads;
And mamma in her 'kerchief, and I in my cap,
Had just settled our brains for a long winter's nap,
When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter,
I sprang from my bed to see what was the matter.
Away to the window I flew like a flash,
Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash.
The moon on the breast of the new-fallen snow,
Gave a lustre of midday to objects below,
When what to my wondering eyes did appear,
But a miniature sleigh and eight tiny rein-deer,
With a little old driver so lively and quick,
I knew in a moment he must be St. Nick.
More rapid than eagles his coursers they came,
And he whistled, and shouted, and called them by name:
"Now, Dasher! now, Dancer! now Prancer and Vixen!
On, Comet! on, Cupid! on, Donner and Blitzen!
To the top of the porch! to the top of the wall!
Now dash away! dash away! dash away all!"
As leaves that before the wild hurricane fly,
When they meet with an obstacle, mount to the sky;
So up to the housetop the coursers they flew
With the sleigh full of toys, and St. Nicholas too—
And then, in a twinkling, I heard on the roof
The prancing and pawing of each little hoof.
As I drew in my head, and was turning around,
Down the chimney St. Nicholas came with a bound.
He was dressed all in fur, from his head to his foot,
And his clothes were all tarnished with ashes and soot;
A bundle of toys he had flung on his back,
And he looked like a pedler just opening his pack.
His eyes—how they twinkled! his dimples, how merry!
His cheeks were like roses, his nose like a cherry!
His droll little mouth was drawn up like a bow,
And the beard on his chin was as white as the snow;
The stump of a pipe he held tight in his teeth,
And the smoke, it encircled his head like a wreath;
He had a broad face and a little round belly
That shook when he laughed, like a bowl full of jelly.
He was chubby and plump, a right jolly old elf,
And I laughed when I saw him, in spite of myself;
A wink of his eye and a twist of his head
Soon gave me to know I had nothing to dread;
He spoke not a word, but went straight to his work,
And filled all the stockings; then turned with a jerk,
And laying his finger aside of his nose,
And giving a nod, up the chimney he rose;
He sprang to his sleigh, to his team gave a whistle,
And away they all flew like the down of a thistle.
But I heard him exclaim, ere he drove out of sight—
“Happy Christmas to all, and to all a good night!”

A fantastic story we read it before bedtime on Christmas Eve every year as part of our family tradition.

Our roads are not flooded.... but it is dark, wet and miserable.

Thanks god, the dog had a sleep over at her friends yesterday (to avoid the fireworks) she is too exhausted to go walking... :D:D So OH is putting a film on and we are going to snuggle up (Nerfy... that behave!).

Hope your journey home is safe x

We were lucky, never seen any fireworks or heard any where we are, and our dog is not bothered by them at all.

Enjoy your film.

Afternoon,

I've never used checkoutsmart because I don't, and won't, have a PayPal account. I see they will now pay direct to your bank account. From what I have picked up, they are allied to one of the cashback sites, Quidco I think, and we are not allowed to use the same offer on both.

have been using it since early 2014 and have been withdrawing via BACS since then...
MSM (MSL) pays (paid) via Paypal only
