            Thanks for the start nmlc and how scary to hear about your work issues. Stay safe and enjoy your time off. Poppy and Csarina – thinking of you both x Also thinking of Dumpling’s family and friends x Happy Birthday to MrRuby – food sounds lovely 😊 No tree or decorations up here yet. DS2 has not started his advent calendar either (maltesers). Think he’s forgotten…. Liking the gin version Nels  I was up early as got ‘pinged’ yesterday and had to take a PCR. There’s a centre 15 minutes from here. I had to queue for 10 minutes but it was very well organised. Results due tomorrow and no symptoms currently. DH asked for wine and crisps last night in the middle of IACGMOOH ! Dinner last night was sausage casserole and I sliced the onions with my new food processor. So quick and easy. My dexterity is not as good as it once was, so I can see this being worth its’ weight in gold. A bit of ironing to do, so will crack on with that after work. Have a good day everyone, Coxy

            Hi everyone,
 We ended up staying an extra night at L & B's. Esben wasn't very well, just a bit of a cold but he started coughing yesterday so Laura took him for a PCR test so that he could go in to nursery today so we stayed in case he wasn't fit to go. We then had the bombshell this morning that he is positive for Covid so Laura came back from College and Brian cancelled his day at work. We have all had tests and technically if we are negative we don't have to self-isolate but that seems wrong so we will be isolating. Hopefully Esben will stay fairly well, he's been off his food but Laura said he had a big lunch so he is probably on the mend.
 For some reason, completely out of the blue, Esben has started to call me Yaya, we have no idea where it has come from. Apparently it is the greek word for grandma but we don't know any Greek people and can't believe that Esben has any concept of grandparents yet. I think it's quite cute and if he wants to adopt it I'll be happy.
 Hugs to Poppy, Csarina and all the people feeling a bit down about Christmas.
 have a good day.12
