    Good afternoon, most peeps seem to have their trees up now and well sorted out. Wish I was as organised this year.

    Good idea Wingo about the shoe grippers, must get some, think we will need there here.

    Well done on your Haribo win firefly.

    Safe journey Sheils and glad you had a good time with your DS.

    Good luck everyone.
    BIG THANKS TO ALL WHO POST THE COMPETITIONS

    perenoel.gif Afternoon all

    It's sunny here but a tad on the chilly side - strange
    looking sky - a patchwork of blue, grey, white .... so
    long as it doesn't turn to rain I'll be happy. :grin:

    Sounds as if you all had a wonderful time yesterday
    sheils with lots of goodies. Have a safe journey today.

    lol, that'll keep the LO's happy :dance: :dance:

    :j Yay - well done fire**fly! Lovely win for the LO's! :j :D :T

    You sound lovely and organised rose - have an enjoyable
    relaxing day. Lol at you still adjusting your tree .... I'm doing
    the same but mainly cos of my puddy cat 're-arranging
    things'! :whistle: :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    I'm looking forward to seeing my lovely family throughout
    the festive period (towards the end of this week) :grinheart -
    can always guarantee a fun time is had by all. :j :T

    I expect they'll all be having well deserved lie-ins whereas
    I'm an early bird (always up at 5.00 am) so will pop in
    while they're still sending up the zzzz's to say a little hello to
    you all.

    Crikes - did I just hear correctly on the TV that Storm Barbara
    is going to be 'visiting' the UK end of this week! :eek:

    On that note I'd best get on, got loads of things to do as
    well as catching up with comps etc! :p

    Have a lovely rest of the day all and take care.

    It's certainly chilly enough for storm Barbara Alfie! I don't normally wish for it but as it's Xmas week I hope we have some snow :)
    That will be nice having family over all week :)

    Yay well done on the haribo win fire**fly :j Delicious win! Hope the LO's aren't fighting over it! :D

    I always think I've got stuff in Rose and when I look for it, it's never there! I end up back out buying stuff.

    Sylvia, hope you manage to get your tree up soon :) My mum finally let us put one up yesterday but she had a few tears.

    Hope you get a good win too indie and you get sorted for Xmas :)

    Did you manage to find any decent breaks with your points Sheils? I expect your son has gone back now has he. Hope you're getting sorted for Xmas too :)

    Have you had all the GK's today Leanfun? Hope all is well with you and yours xx

    I manage to talk DH into going to town to get a few more presents I needed while DD2 is in school still. She breaks up dinner time tomorrow so won't get chance when nosey Nora is around! :D I still need a couple of things though so will try and get them Thursday.
    Big thanks to all who contribute to the forums. Be lucky everyone and be safe!

    lol, love the pic :D

    saw indies postings leanfun in IWIW & here & congratulated on
    both :dance:was a great win for her :dance:

    great you managed to get into town wingo & get the
    prezzies, neighbour of ours went to town today & said it was
    madness with all the queues & shoppers hurrying
    everywhere :eek:

    shoe grippers are great sylv,
    couldn't be without mine,
    they certainly give confidence walking even it's only
    a short distance.
    please be a responsible pet owner & spay/neuter your pets, too many strays & not enough homes for them sadly. k2u58ioz4c8e.png

    It wasn't too bad in town today actually than I thought, it was only primark that was busy. I hate going in there anyway!
    It certainly is colder tonight. The minute the living room door opens it's a breeze coming through.

    Morning peeps. Another chilly one here. Looked out my shoe grippers as well ff. Bought them last year as I have slipped and fallen a few times on icy pavements and can't risk doing any more damage to my leg. Just heard on news/weather forecast we are to expect snow/sleet and gusty winds. So glad I do not have to go out today. Hope everyone is well.

    Morning. Dull here today. Don't fancy that storm Alfie.

    Well today is cleaning and putting up decorations. We usually stick to the traditional twelve days of Christmas. DS and GKs coming Friday for Hols. DD1coming for Christmas Day with GS. DD2 and family might come Boxing Day or after so it's going to be hectic. We have put extra freezer on in garage and yesterday finished filling it. Just turkey to pick up and fresh veg to buy.

    Yesterday we went to Homebase Argos to pick up A parcel for DD1. Queue was so long. Ages later we saw two people walk in and going to a very short queue. We both thought what are they doing. Lo above the counter was a very big notice Click and Collect and EBay collections. We were in the wrong queue!

    Take care everyone. Sounds as though you are all prepared with grippers.

    Good Luck everyone.
