Good Morning Early Birds

[LadyCG]

Good morning. Friday at last - and many of us will break up today. I'm hoping they'll release us early :-)

I still have a couple of things to wrap and food to prep. I can't wait to see my parents and give them their gifts.

I hope everyone has a nice relaxing time planned and they're all organised. Does anyone have anything particularly exciting going on today?

Thinking of Emmie and others who are absent and wishing them well. Peace and good will to all.

Good morning Chip, Naomi and Margo.

Sorry to hear you are still poorly. Will you still cook a bit of something on Christmas Day?

Margo, Minty's been a bit under the weather. I'm sure she'll be back when she's up to it. Still no word from Emmie but I'm sure she knows we're rooting for her.

Thanks LCG :-)

Morning all. What miserable day it is here at the moment, dark and rainy. At least I don't have to leave the house until after Christmas, unless it's to go to the pub.

The big tidy up has started this morning, and I'm sure, once the Sergeant Major gets back from his swim, he'll be bossing everyone about with chores.

Where's the gin already...…..

Rocky, it is nearly gin o clock here.

I just dropped a tray of used cat litter down the stairs. It went everyblumminwhere. Whilst I was cleaning it up (and I still have to vacuum) *they* broke into the dining room and pulled nearly everything off the table.

So far, going well........

Morning, RR. How are you?

I'm hoping to get the house done from top to bottom tomorrow but OH is out with his mate tonight so he could be worse than useless tomorrow ... we'll see.

Hiya, LCG. I'm very well, thank you. I hope you and yours are too. I bet you'll have a fab Christmas this year with Miles being the age he is. I really miss those magical moments. Christmas lost it's sparkle when the kids stopping believing in Santa.

Barmaid - that made me laugh. I've a large Roku and tonic waiting for you, if you fancy it....join me, why don't you.

[LadyCG]

You're right, it's magical when they're that age. I just wish he'd stop messing with the Christmas tree.

I hope I get some nice gin this year. I got my mum The Lakes Gin and No 3 Gin.
