Son has sent a video of 23 in his Christmas Play. Bless him, he did really well singing and with all the actions. Time certainly seems to be flying by at a pace now. Enjoy all the TV quizzing LB tonight, will tune in to OC. Busy.,glad you managed to get your GD her present without the long journey. Topbird, nice to see you. You sound as busy as ever. Have you got any plans for your next break away? Amazing what you've dug up in your garden over the years, just shows how resilient some plants are growing on top of some the stuff.
I still keep hoping to find some treasure @Biglad - but it's just rubbish. My first house, however, was an early-Victorian fisherman's cottage and I still have some of the beautiful stoneware jars, old glass bottles and other bits and pieces I dug out of THAT garden. Much more rewarding!
Good to see Christmas Uni Chall starts again this week. Can usually answer a few more and they tend not to be quite so fast on the buzzers as the young studes.
Heaven is ... sitting in the garden with a G&T and a cat while watching the sun go down
OH is taking Spikey 128 up to sons house tomorrow, ready for 23 when he finishes school. Hopefully he will get a lovely surprise. I have a day of indoor jobs to catch up on. Signing out for today, night all. Hope all those in the quiet corner are alright.
Good morning all. Very busy day yesterday and it’s not looking any better the rest of the week. Our delivery driver fell on Thursday and broke her shoulder so is off for a few weeks and we have our old pharmacist who retired in September back doing deliveries but not every day so we have a backlog of deliveries which is causing a lot of problems to add to the usual seasonal madness! It’s going to be a long week! I may offer to do extra hours to help out.
Off today and it’s a busy one I have lots of wrapping to do plus some Christmas baking and then babysitting this evening for youngest daughter.
@Ladybird4 hope all goes smoothly at the dentist today.
Debs, sorry to hear that you have again very busy time at work. Hope your delivery lady will soon recover.
LB, have a great time at dentist, I know I would. 😁
It's another glorious morning, calm and sunny. Yesterday we even didn't need to turn the heating on. It should stay like that till New year, finger crossed. I'm finishing my tea and it's time to go. It's always little bit easier and quite festive on the last week before winter break.
I was sorry to read about your delivery driver Debs - awful thing to happen to her just before Christmas.
Hazel, I bet 23 will be over the moon when he finds Spikey 128 waiting for him when he gets back from school today.
T'Bird, I enjoyed Uni Chall last night but oh my goodness doesn't Amol Rajan rattle through the questions? Only Connect often remains an absolute mystery to me and Victoria Coren Mitchell is so NOT funny! Irritates me intensely. I still like to watch it though.
Cacoethes: An irresistible urge to do something inadvisable
Good morning Ante, you weren't there when I was typing my post. I'll try hard to enjoy the Dentist! It absolutely hammered down last night and I would like some nice, dry weather for a change - very jealous of your 'glorious morning'!

Same here, @Ladybird4 But yesterday was dry for us, so I ought not complain. Hope all goes well at the dentist. I don't envy you.

Who knew that our gardens were formerly landfill sites @Topbird
