...but not for long - back into hiding tomorrow!

Morning all. Lots of church cleaning going on! (and not by me 😮 ...I used to be on a rota when I ran the rainbows though) Sunny day, Ive finished until 7th Jan😂 now 😁 Party yesterday, and staff meail out last night. I've decided I need to make an effort to decorate the tree now, it's been up over a week sitting sad and bare... although that said, we have new** neigbours three doors down and they have lit up the missive oak tree in their garden so I recon I could have got away with not having a tree this year as we can see it from our living room!😂 ** I say 'new neigbours' , but the funny thing is they were our neighbours three doors down when we were in our first house almost 45 years ago! cx

Oh my goodness- what madness 😳 Glad it went well though.

Yes, we felt our trip was more 'frivolous' just meeting family and freinds for some Christams markets etc. I hope he finally get here safetly. It seems a lot windy-er here now! Watching SCD and have heard a few pots and things going over outside.

Hello, I'm still here! 😄 We decided to bail out and have rebooked for January. Weather forcast very bad, and we were visiting family along with a few Christmas Markets, many of the markets now cancelled due to the forcasted high winds and rain, one family has Norovirus, Andy has a chest infection - so figured it was best not to go. I do now however feel like I've got an 'extra weekend' thrown into the mix. Very relaxing with nothing planned, I may make a few cards I think. The downside is I now have to decorate my own Christmas tree as the plan was for my GD to do it as a 'surprise' for us while we were away. Still a bit early for me to be honest but it's now up and looking rather strange undecorated at the moment 😂 Please note- I like to talk about, and plan Christmas early, but I'm not one to put a tree up in November 😂😂😂!!! I spotted Trekker -from old - posting somewhere else on the forum and I've suggested visiting this thread for a catch up. Mind you- it she starts at page one it will take to the new year to get to this page! Still very quite here and I hope everyone is ok. Have a good weekend, and I hope it's not too 'wild and windy' for all (can't believe I'm writing that sitting here insunshine and clear blue skies at the moment!) Cx

Feel bad not answering, but we don't really have any sleepers, but for the odd one or two that do fall asleep (or not well waiting for a pick-up) we provide the sheets then washed when used. We keep them folded in sets, and each kept in it's own small calico shopping bag- the whole set/bag then gets washed when used. Stored flat on a self in our cupboard. .... anyway that aside- pop pver to the Friday thread and join in with us oldies!

Hi everyone! ....and welcome back Gezabel 😁 I've been away for my Christmas break with the family. Had to laugh as at one of the activities - toy making- GD made (a kit form) reindeer but they didn't have any brown paint... the 12 year old 'elf' running the activity was amazed that I knew exactly how to make the 'best reindeer brown she had ever seen' I didn't let on why I was so good at it 😂!!! Sunnyday- I would have loved to attended your wreath making workshop, but I'm off to Wales on Thursday... Kent would have been so much closer and i think it would have been fun! I'm watching strictly and really admire Chris and his amazing skills at picking the dancing up, also I have warmed to Pete. I didnt really like him at first but he has impoved so much- whilst the other remaining celebs where already pretty good to start with. Have a good weekend all.

Hi everyone! Very cold here! We did have some snow Tuesday morning I was stuck in traffic driving through the forest and it really was quite beautiful watching the big flakes falling all around me........ then 30 mins later all gone - my kind of snow ❄️ Time flying past and I'm away next week, then only two more weeks at work!😮😮😮 Not sure where this term has gone. Only just heard of 'Bert' I do hope he's kind 🙃 cx

Not sure what happended........ but it just occured to me that I have to get my stuff ready for work tomorrow! 😂

Oh dear, it's Sunday not Friday! Not sure where that week went then!😳

Our local Boots has stopped doing them, and so have Asda - which was my 'go to' walk-in. (£13)

Morning 😊 Week one done....or is it week two? My brain has truned to mush already!!😂 Hope the jabs go ok and no side affects... sadly I'm far to young to have any yet! (miffed as Andy has the Dr's ringing/messaging him to book appointments, while I'm left to seek out my own methods of vacinnations!! 🤔) Time does fly doesn't it Sunnday 😮 My grandaughter will soon be 5 ! xx

Yes! Most definitely, I'm now ready for it. x

Afternoon folks 😊 1st November 😮 Back to work Monday, and even with the run up to Christmas- usually my favorite term... I'm really not looking foward to going back 🙁 Sunnyday, your day sounded lovely. We had no Halloween visitors! In the 30+ years we've lived here we've had a grand total of about 6 children- and they were friends of ours 😂... it's just a bit too dark and creepy down our lane 👻👻 xx

Happy Birthday Froglet! 🍰🎂 ☕🥂 Have a wonderful craft, cake, and love filled day!
