Burtha I think they're all still sat inside stuffing their faces with sweeties and cake. I am shocked, you wouldn't catch me doing anything that unhealthy.

I am shocked, you wouldn't catch me doing anything that unhealthy.I wouldn''t worry burtha I did post at some point but seem to have totally lost the plot the sleep fairies seem to have decamped , Hope all are well fear not Miss Mendacity has arrived to reassure us she is good and healthy. I always think it strange how some people have very short memories. Remembering the great no Jelly Babies panic but of course she'll deny any knowledge as per usual . maybe it was the elves .Are there elves north of the border?pollyx

I have a whole box of chocolates. Until now I have always, in the interests of a healthy diet, hurriedly passed said chocolates on to a deserving cause. My kids loved the concept of a healthy diet for their mum, they benefited hugely.
Not this year.
At my age I've given up being healthy.
I'm getting through those chocolates like one possessed.
Sorry mar. You are no longer in with a chance,
Yum!I believe that friends are quiet angels

It's ok. I don't really like chocolate.4

Hello Fencers, I hope you all enjoyed your xmas break. Sorry I haven't posted lately but I have been reading along. I've been busy with family this xmas, trying to make up for last year I suppose. Wasn't sure it would even happen after DD and SiL both went down with Covid 2 weeks before xmas, strangely DGS didn't catch it. Anyway I just wanted to send you all my good wishes.

More fun and games here, after DD had tested positive the week before Christmas. She's tested negative now for 6 days but gets tired quickly. DH started with toothache just before Christmas and thought he'd be ok until he could get to the dentist this week. Wrong! Ended up at the emergency dental dept at the local hospital last night. He's in so much pain and his face is very swollen, but has started on antibiotics and hopefully has turned the corner.2025 Fashion on the ration

He's getting there, @burtha. His face is still swollen, but the dentist took the tooth out yesterday and massaged some of the 'infection' out. 😝 He's still on 'baby food' though.2025 Fashion on the ration
