    The only white stuff we have is ice! It's really bad because we don't get the gritter on our road and no one really uses it :( Kids love it though!

    Have a lovely time at DGS nativity :D x

    Enjoy the nativity Cumbria.

    Are you pleased there's no snow? It's been snowing on Dartmoor but I'm not sure if it's settled. I haven't noticed any in my road, shame because I quite like snow :).

    Well today has been a pj day , seem to have succumbed to the cough going around work, amazingly the stomach has been ok ! . We have no snow on the ground , just the odd flurry . Not remotely jealous of your snow down south , it just causes chaos. Nice for kids, photos and Father Christmas.

    The navitity was so cute , just typical 3 and 4 yr olds , DGS loved it and I feel privileged to have seen him. Took parents shopping yesterday , as forecast seemed worse today , when in fact it snowed here yesterday. Shop at Mr A was £33.30 it included some wine for Christmas. £7 in Mr s gluten free stuff.
    Parents been round with homemade soup and medication , eternally grateful to them.

    Have more soup cooking with all the leftover veg in the fridge plus some pasta gluten free from Spain gifted by parents . It's ideal for soup it's so small.
    The ironing mountain is no more , flat looking very Christmassy, but minimal.

    Hoping to start wrapping very soon , we will see.

    Stay warm everyone and enjoy the snow if you are in the South .

    Hello Cumbria Lass, just popping by

    Fab that your doctor is so thorough, I'm sure they'll have it cracked in no time at all.

    You sound all organised and relaxed, I have Christmas prep envy.

    I hope your lovely friend can come back soon
