Narco did you go ice skating at the GC near you? If so is it good?

Yes it was that one. It has become a bit of a ritual in the last few years, a group from Mr N's work all meet together and we have an hour on ice then pig out on hot chocolate etc so it's good fun. I think it is a bit cheaper if you book on line, I can't remember as it was organised a while ago. The skates are quite good, I've got arthritis in one toe which can be a nuisance buying shoes etc, but their skates have plenty of adjustment. I love sitting watching the skaters as well, it is just very Christmassy and happy - and I don't usually do kids!

we made just short of £2K!

Boss has been implored NOT to spin it to £2K - because I'm the one who pays it into the bank!

lol mine is the right; perhaps we can buy shoes between us! I hate that I struggle to wear heels for special occasions - I don't often dress up smartly but it was nice once in a while.

I'm struggling to keep up this week.

I had a bit of a blitz of the kitchen and have done three loads of laundry. Have also posted some pressies and overseas cards.

I wanted to do some wrapping tonight but was too tired so just vegged. Hopefully will have more energy tomorrow as I'm panicking that the house will not look presentable for Christmas at this rate.

Catch up in the morning x
