Mornin~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I have home made soup, made on the hob, in a pan ;-)

Good morning all :-)

Well, I don't think I have ever had soup for breakfast before but it is VERY tasty :-S :-D :-D

Thank you Ginns <3

Left over from last night Dea, potato, lentil and onion

Just finished cleaning the bay windows, having something to eat and then attempting to put up the tree!

I had a beautiful recipe for Courgette Soup which I got from the owner of a family Restaurant in Chinchon, Spain. I don't even like courgettes but this was delicious.

I must see if I can find where I put it. :-S

Pass it on Dea, if you find it...........most things are good when 'souped' up!

Just finished the tree, what a mare. it is 7'6 and each branch is inserted separately :-0

Looks lovely with all the Victorian glass on it :-)

Flicking through the channels on tv and stopped at diagnosis murder

We couldn't turn it off, haven't laughed to much in ages

Ham ham ham!

Just got back from the 'Santa Cruise' - the children had a lovely time :-D :-D

Ooo I remember you booking that. Did you enjoy it Dea

It was lovely Ginns !

A couple of years ago we took them on a similar thing but on an old steam train as their other grandparents used to take them but Grandpa was very ill at the time so we booked it for them and took their Nana along with us.

It was about £26 for each of us and was a total 'rip-off' - the children were cold, bored and hungry and got a rubbish present so we vowed never to do it again.

I don't really mind how much it costs as long as they get some enjoyment out of it!

This trip was £5 each and the people on board were dressed as elves and, of course Santa was there and they were all very friendly and made sure the children had a lovely time and they also had a very nice present.

We had a Pub lunch first and grand-daughter wasn't very well but managed to get through the trip with a big smile on her face.

I expect she has spent the afternoon snuggled up in bed but she is happy.

It must have been lovely for a poorly one to have smiles on her face <3

Well, I expected a 'phone call this morning to say that grand-daughter was off school but instead it was grandson who was up all night coughing and had to stay at home !! :-(

Grand-daughter wanted to go and said she was o.k. but I'm not sure she will last the whole day remembering what she looked like yesterday - we will see later :-0

Roll on the end of term on Friday and they can all have a good rest !!!

Dea Xxx

Its that time of year Dea.....its all going round

Better to have before Christmas though. Hope he is feeling better soon :-)

My Oh has been coughing and spluttering for over a week.

He has kindly shared with me I'm hoping it doesn't develop to match his

I treated myself to a pair of Skecher trainers today :-)

OOOhhh Poor Linds (and OH) !!

Grandson had it 2 weeks ago and then gave it to me and then to grandad - then it passed to his sister and now he has got it back (serve him right !! ;-) :-( :-( )

Hope no-one else gets it before Christmas !!!

Dea Xxx

P.S. _ I REALLY hope he didn't pass it on to Santa yesterday otherwise none of us will get any presents ;-) :-D :-D

Dea Xxx

Silly me !!!!

I have just writen all my cards and printed out the address labels to put on them.

I 'fidled about' for ages trying to get the labels off before I realised I had printed the addresses on the backing sheets - I had to turn all the sheets over and reprint on the other side ;-) :-D :-D :-D

Dea Xxx

I've done that before Dea and getting them lined up with the labels can be a right pain

Linds..........you are all in the wars, you'll be better by the big day :-)

We hit the shops today and have made a huge dent in the list.

M met us and picked boots they didn't have his size but have ordered them online (they did it in the shop) and they will arrive in about 3 days.

I ordered coats for the girls online and also got the new homeowners a Christmas tree which will arrive at the store tomorrow.

I feel as though we are getting somewhere at last.

MIL's 87 tomorrow and we are all going up at night with a cake and her presents.

We heard today that at last they have got her into a home although they missed a place in one by 20 minutes :-(

The third one they tried had a place and hopefully she will be in soon and we can take the girls to visit.

Mornin~~~~~~~~~

Sit down Linds!
