Default Christmas IS coming.

In spite of all the depressing headlines and sad news around, Christmas IS coming.This morning I saw two real turtle doves perched in a real pear tree.There was no sign of the partridge though!
So to all forum members, wherever you are, my best wishes to you all for a very merry Christmas, and Happy and Peaceful New Year.

Well I haven't put a single thing in the suitcases yet, but I have got the little one a brand new ID card, printed out the car hire thing, organised all the presents which have all arrived either at dad's or here. Done the dinner with Nonni and swapped gifts.

Will have to do some dreaded food shopping in the UK to take my share of the Christmas dinner. Wish my sisters would get my bit and I could just pay them, but they hate the supermarkets too.

Merry Christmas from me to all of you xxx

thanks same to you and yours.

I've started to get Christmas cards from people I didn't bother to write one to, so it must be nearly time.

Default Re: Christmas IS coming.

Just wanted to wish everybody a Very Merry Christmas and thank you all for your support throughout the year - you're a great bunch and I dunno what I'd have done without you. I've got at least twenty round here for Christmas dinner so as from tomorrow I'm going to be up to my eyeballs in work ..... so take care and have a great time and I'll be back in the NEW Year!

Happy Christmas one and all

NEVER buy a kitchen appliance as a present -you are going to pay for it, believe me.
