    Morning, evening Pat

    what folks don't realise in Oz that the maps done mean the roads are the same as European ones   We once took what I can only describe as a cattle route! Fun tho!

    Pat your bags are lovely.

    no pm s for me I guess Fairy might be right in that we are a wee bit bigger up here

    good tips about PayPal, thank you, always good to be aware

    horrid day here, nasty damp bone creeping coldimage

    Morning all.

    Having a lazy day today, it must be lazy because although I've done all of the ironing, sorted all of my work emails, I'm still in my night attire. This must be the longest I've been out of either work wear or jeans for... years! It feels strangely liberating. Drafty though. The main purpose of todays lazy day however is that his lordship has asked that the dog have a restful day as he's had a busy weekend and is now behaving like a cranky toddler. If he's not careful I'll drive him around in the car until he falls asleep properly!

    Well yesterday I togged up in my thermals, then put another layer of thermals on, then climbed into my (very thin) Santa costume and pushed my friends on a vintage ambulance stretcher for a mile with the British Heart Foundation Santa "Chase The Pud" while they clung on for dear life performing CPR.

    It was hard work: but the amount of attention we got from it with people coming up for photographs and discussing CPR made it all worth it. I hope that many people walked away either wanting to learn CPR or at least being willing to discuss it with each other so that if anything happened they'd know what to do.

    Of course any daft day out can't be passed by without a photograph so here you go....

    Now, anyone for a cup of tea?

    I'm trying to catch up on everyones adventures but keep getting distracted by... ooh is that bulb sales?

     

    So....

    Best wishes to anyone feeling under the weather. I hope you are keeping nice and warm (but not too warm) and remember: mulled cider is FULL of vitamin C which is just what you need when you're under the weather.

    Coffee please.

    Hubby has gone to London again. I think last weeks excursion gave him a cough. He was inside an old brewery, I was in the fresh air at Kew.   The xmas tree is up, I just have to decorate it.

    I had a funny email purporting to be from facebook. I had to send them my real name and a photo. I don't have a facebook account.image

    I have not had an offer for glass. Maybe the East Midlands is too far.image

    My friend returned the spare microwave following her mammoth kitchen refit, and had a trample through the flower bed, so that she could stroke the dandelions. We're all crackers around here.imageimage

    Fidget: ignore the email, the amount of hacking attempts and nasties pretending to be facebook / paypal / amazon / ebay is rediculous. What happened to those African princes that used to send you emails just wanting your bank account. At least they were laughable.

    Dove: aww did I miss out on another fun person to "play with"?

    I've finally found a recipe for gluten free stollen. Unfortunately it means getting dressed to get the ingredients from the supermarket.... I'll think about it!
