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.

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

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 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.

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.

Stephen, I hope you will not be offended, but would you mind if I make a donation to SENSE, a charity for the deaf ,blind,and the Cerebal Palsy charity, I support them locally,in both of their charity shops. My friends son has Cerebal Palsy,and he is such a lovely lad,and is a credit to his parents, you could not wish to meet a happier boy.

Right we are all at yours for Christmas Eve, is it bring a bottle.
I love Mince pies, but not Mince Meat pies.
Make sure the path is clear of snow though please.

I wonder if Maddie has got back from her christmas shopping, or if she got swept away by the students march.
Maddie do we have to send for Stephen and the boys to rescue you. They have got the training to do it. They will be in disguise,so you might not recognise them, but if one ask you about your THONGS you will know it is, ahem , excuse me, but I think his name is Stephen.

I am expecting you all to make a personal visit on Christmas Eve loaded with pressies.

Will make sure there is loads of room for the Streeeettttccchhhed Limo Sleigh and the dozen or so reindeers to park up safely.

As you will be visiting Scotland you know how generous we Scots are...

I will have a Mince Meat Pie and a Sherry ready for you all to share.PMSL

Ladies......an apology.........a really sincere one.

Christmas Cards.........please don't send me any.....make a small donation to the RNLI or Cancer UK or a Charity of your choice..

All our friends (all two of them) know this is what we prefer and make a donation accordingly.

Hope you don't take offence at this.

Best wishes,

Stephen

Mo
I have replied to your email and told you what GR said . it still will not work only when it feel like,it. there are people about today that are like that lol
anyway I sent you my eamil address no good messing about like I have been.
Marilyn your up. and your thinking ahead.? . when I had large dinner parties at Christmas (that was when I lived in Ealing) I use to decorate a basket put it in the middle of the table and make cotton wool snowballs in each snowball I put a small present only a nic nac not the real presently could be a keyring . Earings. small presents and a little holly label on each one. it was a novel idea and people like it. the thing is I could use the snowballs time and time again.saved money Lol it looked nice set in the middle of the table as I sprinkled glitter on it.

My daughter carried on this .my son in Law Steve made a sledge of wood and little reindeers pulling it the snowballs fit in the sledge
I still look forward to the little present I get from that. I dont think I will every grow up.at Chrstmas time

I too have had sun today. this afternoon it was like a spring day I went into my bedroom at the back of the flat , and looked out of the window to see two yellow roses on the bush outside the window.In all this cold
weather how can they bloom in this cold snowy weather ?

Marlyn,

The sunshine has been fantastic. A really lovely day.

Clear sky....low temperatures.

Get some Holly for Mrs Stephen when you're out and about.
