    Good morning from me as well!

    Gem - thank goodness your car passed its MOT! Glad you, Qwerty and Granny Jules had a lovely day.


    We're hoping the damp dull weather this morning doesn't turn into proper rain - OH and a friend are chain saw-ing up logs for the wood burner this morning. Horrible job - noisy and messy and OH likes to have someone to help him. They have all the proper safety equipment and everything, but you can't be too careful!

      Good morning everyone.

      You are right Mimi, it is a busy time, nice to see you here

      Nan2, it's a very good idea to write the renewal date on the calendar!

      This morning we will buy the Christmas tree, then decorate it. I also have several things to do on my never ending list for my mum. She rang me with 2 more when I was with GJ and Qwerty yesterday!
      I will post my Christmas cards today, and maybe wrap some presents, time permitting

          Good morning from a damp and dull Dorset.

          Glad to hear you three ladies had a lovely day, good news about your car Gem . Hope the log sawing goes well Daisy, think of all the lovely logs you'll have. πŸ”₯

          Not sure what we're doing today, have been getting on well with the de-cluttering so maybe more of that.

            Enfys - you could hire yourself out as a de-cluttering expert at this rate. I'd happily be your first challenge!

                  So true. I could get rid of OH's clutter in no time at all, if only he'd let me!!

                  Nana - have a lovely time - don't get too wet and cold. What are you making in your crafting session?

                      Mimi - there's brandy in the homemade mincemeat, and no doubt a few drops more will find their way in!! Hic! (Just testing the brandy hasn't gone off - somebody's got to do it. Hic!)

                                Thinking of you Qwerty! Be good little babies, for Grandma and Grandad tonight!

                                We bought our tree. It was pouring with rain. The tree is so wet it is in its stand in the living room until tomorrow, when hopefully it will be dry enough for us to put lights and decorations on!
                                We fancied a different position for the tree this year (well I did) We moved everything around, but found it doesn't work. We will move it all back tomorrow before decorating the tree, to where it has been the past 5 Christmases
