Hi everyone,
Sorry I've been so rubbish about posting again, I'm finding it difficult to get online before the afternoon and then I think that the posting window is closed.
Anyway, I've been following along and am pleased your procedure went ok Gers. Coxy, I hope you feel better soon and also that Mr Fixit does as well. Molly, I'm sorry you've had such a rubbish year, hopefully 2026 will be better.
We had a lovely time with the family and now I'm missing them like crazy. It won't be for long though, Esben was getting upset at the thought of leaving so I pencilled a visit to Bristol in on the calendar which cheered him up. We'll also be going away with the whole family for Steve's 70th at the beginning of Feb.
Lots to look forward to next year besides Steve's birthday - Chris and Crystal will both be 40 and will be adding to their family in the summer. We'll also be looking after Nate once a week instead of bi-weekly as his other Grandma can't do it for a couple of months. As he starts school in September (far too early I think as he only turns 4 at the end of August) we want to make the most of it.
We're going up to Yorkshire in a couple of days, we've got some jobs to do in the house and we'll also be taking the decorations down. I was thinking about taking the decorations down here before we go but we were late putting them up and I am still enjoying them so I think it will wait. I always think about dumpling taking them down on Boxing Day, I don't think I could be bothered.
Please let me know if you read this post and then I know it's worthwhile posting late.
Have a good evening.12 -
I refresh at odd times throughout the day and the day after so it's always read by me
