    You've got a busy time coming up Cumbria, it sounds fun :).

    Work politics are horrible :(. I hope it gets sorted soon.

    You're done well to buy a Christmas present already :T. My mum buys them throughout the year but sometimes she can't find them at Christmas :rotfl:.

    I am going to be buying just token wrap up gifts and giving money as away most of December in Oz, so need to be organised.

    I hope you have a lovely big fleece in your Lakeland wardrobe - to say it has been cold the last few days would be the biggest understatement. It is flipping freezing - there was a little snow lying at the weekend but now it's just cold. It doesn't even look that pretty.
    Here's hoping it becomes more springlike before you get up here.
