No offence....Stephen,

I got some thongs ......but I don't wear them, so uncomfortable .

Should throw them out really. but they are good for no lines on linen trousers .

Well no holly with berries on, so I got to go further afield and find some tomorrow.


I got the grand kids coming in 30mins ....I'm so excited mind you so are they as we have bought them some clothes from USA.

Hi all.

Stephen, my choice of charity is Marie Curie, both my parents and my sister died of cancer and we wouldn't have coped without those wonderful nurses, my donation will go to them. I'll still send you an e-card though because it doesn't cost anything.

Mo, your card hasn't arrived but it may just be held up with the weather. I don't live far off Sunderland so they should still be able to find me.

Hi Pauline,
Did Brent enjoy his day at the centre. I bet it was quiet at your house,with no music blaring out.
Has your snow cleared yet. I know one thing, it's veryyy cold here tonight, even though we have got the fire going,and the central heating on,it's taking a lot to warm the house up.
I wonder if Shelly has got stuck to the loo, with it being so cold in her house,as she has not been posting very much lately.

Hi Pauline,

I told Stephen I'm trying to get rid of last years cards ...so not costing me a penny ..LOL


I have just finished my dinner.

Shelly where have you been all day ?
I bet your boys go sneaking into your bedroom while your not there , I used to when my parents where out we found all the hiding places, and have a good feel to guess what our presents were .....Oh Memories

Rita, we've still got snow, it won't go away.

I went out today to get stocked up with tins and jars just in-case we get more snow.

After loading it all in the boot, I was dragging the trolley through the snow to get it back to the trolley park and it tipped over and I fell on top of it. I was pleased I fell on the trolley and not in the snow.

Marilyn,

Stingy.....NO you're not.....that's good recycling.

My wife and I have been reusing the same Cards every year since we married 42 years ago.......we have had to change the envelopes though....they were looking grubby. The colours and the ink have started to fade a bit. We have thought about putting them on ebay as a collectors item.

WHAT A FIBBER !!!!!!! ROFL

Stephen,
A christmas card from 1968! wow!
Anyone whos still got snow. Sorry! looking at the weather forecast it was jolly cold in Carlisle.

Finding presents,

NO PROBLEM.............I didn't ever get any.

We were so poor we couldn't even afford to smile.

Luxury for us was having an extra spoon to pass around to sup our thin watery soup.

The nearest we had to Turkey was the wee Sparrow we would catch, if we were lucky.

Our sweet was a lick at a sticky lolly.

Everything served up with a huge helping of LOVE.

You can't beat that for a Christmas Dinner

Patricia,

SNOW......I've enough to start a ski school.

My drifts are over 6ft high. On the level I have nearly four feet now.

The shops are running out of general food stuffs. No bread. No Milk.

Petrol is in short supply .

Schools are shut

Doctors on emergemcy calls only.

Many dental practices shut.

Temperatures at -15C. are general.

Yep ! We have a wee bit of snow in Scotland. And that's in the areas of largest populations, Edinburgh, Glasgow.

Scotlands busiest Motorway was closed for two days.

Remote areas are even worse off. Many roads have been blocked for over a week..
