Morning everyone, MERRY CHRISTMAS to you all, hope you enjoy your day.
Was kept busy last night, 2 mares foaled, so I literally spent Christmas eve in stables.
Thank you for your kind thoughts and messages, makes me realise I'm not alone,
Hi Rita, hope you are feeling better, and keeping warm.
Thanks for the cup of tea Marilyn, it was very welcome.
Stephen, breakfast was delicious, thank you.
Going to have a shower now, after a night with horses I need one, lol.

Take care and stay safe.

Last Christmas day, I put the turkey in the oven before I spent a few leisurely hours at the local hostelry - that’s a posh word for a place better known by us commoners as a ‘pub’.

On returning, I opened the oven door to see how himself was progressing. There he stood on the roasting tray with his wings folded in anger. “Dermot” he said because that's my name - “either light the gas or give me my feathers back - it’s freezing in here”.

I’m off out now. Luckily, someone else is cooking this year!

Morning all, a Merry Christmas to you.
Well it's a dry bright day,but bitterly cold. No snow thank goodness, mind you the last lot has not completely gone yet.

The dining table is set for the six of us,and I must say it looks a picture.
The wine is chilling in the fridge, the non- alchoholic for myself and mummy to be, the rest is for the wine tipplers amongst us.

The rest of the family will be descending on us,at about 5.00p.m yippeee
I love to see the youngsters open their presents.

I will say bye for now everyone, enjoy your day,speak to you as soon as possible. Love to all. Mo xxx

yes Stephen I thought I would have to make my own breakfast this morning.
I didnt go to bed till 1 0clock I had some phone calls from abroad.
Morning Linda and a happy Christmas to you and yours.
It is strange being on my own. , it would not be so bad if the Tv or Radio had some good programmes on but they have so many repeats you could have a heartattck. I hope the producers dont get a bonus for their selection.
anyway hope you all enjoy your Chrstmas Day.
Love to all.

I am just logging in to say hope you have a good evening before santa comes to visit you. there have been enough Santa.s on Tv today for people to think they dont exsist. lol

my phone went a few minutes ago and my friend from Norfolk nearly had a fit. she said" Rita I didnt think you would be there I thought you would be at your daughters" then she heard me speak and knew why I wasnt . she was in Norwich and said there had been a coach crash and asked if I had heard anything on the News I said yes and told her.

Mary our friend who goes to Scotland every Christmas for three weeks to stay with her daughter and family had flown up there as the roads were un passiable in places so her son in law had booked her a flight instead.
Shirley said she had seen her off .

It was nice to hear her she was my best friend in Norfolk we went everywhere together.
It is still cold here I think we might have another lot of snow in the next few days. I was hoping I would get over this and beable to go shopping.

Pauline I posted those photos off. that should give you a good laugh.they went two days ago.
