    Did someone mention "drinks"?

    I'm here with a bottle of red, half already gone, and OH isn't home yet, I've texted him and told him we need another bottle or two.

    I haven't had time to read the OS board recently, hugs to Anniestar, (I'm not sure whats happened though, although reading about flowers, I think I can guess)..hugs.

    Hugs to everyone else in need,

    P.s Catowen, I only mentioned E-bay because my niece got married and received £1000 in John Lewis vouchers and couldn't find anything she wanted, she sold them on E Bay for £920 and went and bought something for the house from The Pier. (it was just a thought, especially if like most of us you are feeling the pinch with the rise in fuel/food etc).

    Hiya JackieO and crew

    I'm here with my virtual G&T. I'm looking longingly at the bottle of bombay saphire and the champagne is twinkling and teasing me. But I have managed to stick to OJ - I'm a crystal champagne flute of course!!!!!!

    DH is out tonight and though I was going a bit crazy when I told him I was going to an OS party :D He thought it was some kind of fancy dress malarky :roll:

    cheers :beer:

    Meant to mention earlier that colleagues popped in today with their 9 week old twin boy and girl. GB went into overdrive and fed the wee boy! Fantastic! Got the milk stains on the cardi but nothing new! Absolutely gorgeous!

    Congratulations, you must be the first OSer, this year, to use the Christmas smilies :D
    You're only young once, but you can be immature forever :D
