Hi Mo

We had snow on Saturday but no more yet but it's very cold, was hoping to go to my sisters on Thursday but i think i'll call her and cancel and go after Christmas. Don't fancy the M25 in this weather!

Eveing all
Well managed Tesco this morning. So we have what we've got and what we haven't we'll have to go without.
Hubby should be at work tomorrow Late shift so hoping it thaws a bit and doesn't freeze over. It was dripping earlier but not holding my breath.

Now have FIL coming christmas night, eldest says she pick him up Christmas Day evening a\nd bring him here Though I will be out til hubby finishes work. Then he will be her Boxing Day and taken home next morning. Not my idea but if they want to risk driving him around while hubby works their choice.

Just means I have to try to sort out a second spare bedroom. Not easy with all the rubbish I have!!

Enjoy your evening Think I'd like to join you on the sleigh ride. I have the thermals I bought for our weekend in Bath.

Catch you all later

Hope you and Pete are OK Marilyn Take care

Linda :o) XxX

hello everyone

hope Pete is ok, sending a big ((((hug)))) to Marilyn and Pete.

I won't be able to come with you tomorrow, I'm at work but I'll be with you in spirit, preferably vodka lol

oh Cath feel sorry for you with no heating, we had that a few years ago over new year, the central heating pump went and needed a new part so had a week without hot water and heat, a nieghbour lent us an electric fire and we bought one aswell so one in the living room and the other in my son's room, he was only a baby then

Catherine,

Do you have Insurance that would cover the damage to the Boiler ?

Worth checking that out....it's surprising what gets covered without us realising it.

I have just fitted a new dishwasher compliments of the Insurers. And it was quite old.

Im a proper misery tonight aren't I.Will have to go to bed early and wake up refreshed and raring to go tomorrow.

I am starting to feel Christmassy at last. Grandchildren were singing carols this afternoon and then watched a Christmas film. They always make me smile, bless them.
Going to get my hot water bottle, hot toddy and curl up by fire.

Night to all

Evening all,
I have had a really Sh*%&y day.
In a pre-christmas bout of cleaning fever (LOL) I was scrubbing away at the oven when I realised my knees were getting wet. Called hubby who's a plumber to come home QUICKLY and 1 hour and an inch of water later he arrives and discovers its not a burst pipe but a burst boiler!! Grrrrrrrrr why do these things always happen when the money runs out? Now need a new boiler costing £1500, gulp, and have no central heating. I felt like sticking my head back in the oven.

I am so looking forward to sleigh ride tomorrow night, will bring something warming to drink.

I hope we hear from Marilyn tonight and hope Pete is ok.

Cath xx in a cold house.
