Re the cards, the irony is that for the first time in years I had already bought a big charity pack months ago but of course it is languishing in storage right now 🙄
Pluto, if you haven't found out already the Agatha this year is The A. B. C Murders and quite radically is starring one of my fave actors as Poirot, John Malkovich. BBC 1 at 9pm on Boxing Day.
Did anyone watch The Long Song last night? Marvellous, I thought, can't wait for 9 tonight for the next episode.

Have a wonderful time with Mr and Mrs Travis Glad your tummy is better PK, even if you do have sniffles, hooray for a good sleep and cards is the last thing you should worry about, as already said we're just happy to see you and having Teebs back is an unexpected bonus You sound more chirpy Ditto Hope you're feeling better too Deedee

PK I saw the trailer for The ABC Murders yesterday and it looks very good. I watched The Long Song last night. It was excellent on many different levels. I shall watch part 2 tonight! I was looking forward to Grey's Anatomy but it must be on a season break. Did you watch last week Rainbow? All that elevator drama Cheese and bics was a lovely treat Rainbow Ditto that new car sounds marvellous! Teebs it sounds as if the Peebles trip went well

Hello all. Drizzling here, that rain that soaks you through. Hassles getting Mum to local hospital for audio but we were too late and they wouldn't see us so now they can come and see her. They said there's a long waiting list but sack it, I'm in too much pain to mither. My knees and legs are a joke. Got to get a note from the doc to say she's housebound. We went charity shops instead. No scooter, my van man's son is crook so he's got no help. I hates having this money hanging around, it ain't mine. Daph got a cracking satchel for Tilly for Christmas with horses on it! She'll love that. I'm supposed to be recording The Long Song, hope it worked. We're watching LuLu now, Who Do You Think You Are? She looks so good for an older gel!

Hi folks!
Pluto, I had a good sleep but unlike yesterday I was awake and wanting to get up at 9am 😺
Oh Ditto, but I guess the charity shops made it a cloud with a silver lining.
Got a box of presents from mum this morning and the nurse doing the drugs round opened it then tipped the contents all over me lying on the bed and just continued on her way 🙄 FFS!

All finished at work now until next Thursday Got a box of presents from mum this morning and the nurse doing the drugs round opened it then tipped the contents all over me lying on the bed and just continued on her way 🙄 FFS! FFS indeed! Hope you don't have to wait too long for that appointment Ditto You sound far more organised than me Rainbow! I've eaten way too much of the wrong foods today. We had so much for our shared breakfast that I had it for lunch too and there's still loads of it at work. I do love it all though

Have a great time Rainbow.
Too many leftovers sounds good to me Pluto 😀
Have had yet another parcel today! My big Christmas bag brought by goddaughter's parentals is now getting very full and heavy, and I have wheedled pal Tim, who was coming over tomorrow anyway but from Upton, into going into the city to get the other package, woohoo 😻

Chance would be a fine thing! It's sounding very festive up your way PK I've just had H's male friend messaging me to see if I can babysit tomorrow so he can take her out to dinner. He said he's made her a present too! I'm pretty sure he's really sweet on her but I think he's just a mate to her. Ooh, she just said he's loved her for 5 years!!!! She thinks it's stalkerish though. Shame cos he's a teacher and a nice bloke.

Maybe she's just being cautious to protect her emotions Pluto. Did you get to see the last episode of TLS? What a story and production.
Just watched the Gareth Southgate with Bear Grylls program. Bear is a sadist but Gareth is as fit as a flea and very brave. I am in awe!
I wish drones had never been invented, and have been wary of them for a while. Never anticipated this mess though.
I feel that I ought to finish getting ready for bed now but not ready for sleep yet.

Hey! Rainy and dreary again today, but brightened by Travis' arrival around noon! We headed for his fav seafood restaurant, and then home. His wife flies in tomorrow about noon, too. We've been catching up on all the news, he loves the remodeled bathroom! PK, were the presents to be opened right then or stored away for Christmas day? Not very nice of nurse either way! Were the drones something to do with the Bear Grylls show?? Pluto, nice to have a friend to go out with, maybe she'll realize or develop an affection for the young man! I hope your anxiety dreams left you alone last night so you can sleep! Rainbow, glad the pub evening was a success, third isn't bad! What did you and R and A get up to? Ditto, shame about the late doctor's appointment, but may be a good thing to have them come there! Hope the achy knees are better! Teebs, love the Christmas party pics on FB...she looked so cute in the sparkly dress, bet she loved it! Deedee, hope you're feeling better! Did some more Christmas shopping online, just a couple of gift cards for my niece and nephew, they live in Arkansas. I've been getting lots of the things I ordered on Amazon and QVC arriving, and so far everything looks just as promised on line! Take care all...hugs!

Good morning M, the drones are flying around Gatwick Airport as planned disruption and have grounded all flights in and out for the last few days. It's chaos. It's time to shoot the damn things down, get those responsible and lock them up PK, the final part of The Long Song was so emotional It's making me well up as I am typing. It was an award winning production Well done with the quiz Rainbow. Was it a regular one or a festive one? We had a festive quiz in our team meeting and my team won. We would have done even better if they had gone with my answers on one question too! I might have to catch up with Bear and Gareth. M, how lovely to have Travis home for a while I slept better, probably because I have time to do home stuff now. Got the washing in lol! Teebs, that's a gorgeous school piccie of Riley and Taylor I'm hoping my H is going to be swept off her feet by a knight in shining armour! The friend is a good bet but I don't think he's the one for her sadly. Hope it's a sttressfree day for you Ditto.

morning, it was a festive version of the quiz Pluto, we did really well in some rounds and not so good in others, it's much better one members husband and teenage children come and join us after dinner for the quiz as they have a good breadth of knowledge Wrapping all done and presents ready to deliver. R and A are having money for decorating their new house Hope you can have a few relaxing and fun days now Pluto Have a lovely time with Travis Marilyn Off out with the pub quizzes later to celebrate our friends 60th birthday with a festive afternoon tea Have a good day everyone
