Back form Christmas shopping, didn't get much done, but did manage to buy myself 2 new pairs trousers and a few more bits and bobs, well a girl has to treat herself sometimes.
I like to start Christmas shopping about now when the shops are not so busy, can't be doing with pushing my way round town when the world and his wife are about.
Hope you OH is feeling better Lottie, what an awful thing to happen
My daughter is a keen gardener with not much money, so when I divide plants or take cuttings we always makes sure she gets some, she has got a fairly big garden that has not had much done to it, so the more plants she can ' aquire' the better.
Our first car was a Ford Popular, must have been about 1962/3, I think the dealer saw us coming. It looked alright from the outside but the engine was, shall we say k*******d, it had no heater, so when we used it to go any distance in the winter, we used to wrap our son up in a blanket with a hot water bottle. Those were the days. NOT.
Ham and Pork Pie salad tonight for tea I think, can't be bothered to cook, might do a jacket potato to go with it.
It's nearly dark, don't like this month, roll on Spring.

PS --- Is Geoff flicking the duster around in anticipation of the Estate Agent and prospective buyers visit
Bjay. It's a lovely part of the country,. We have had several holidays in that area, and have visited the Malvern show twice. Love it
I try to be orgainised on the Christmas front but whatever I plan always seems to go to pot, but this year------.At least we now know what hours daughter has to work over Christmas and can plan accordingly.
No doubt we shall get a full report from Geoffrey later in the day, hope the prospective buyers are ok, we had some very peculiar people round when we sold my Mums bungalow a couple of years ago, makes you wonder who's normal apart from us

You gave away your marigolds in a competition!! I gave you those marigolds.
Oops-I forget to send them-keep it quiet

I just had to look up where Malvern Hills is Bjay.
It's not that far then is it. Is that when you are getting your tree as well?

Chris, your first car sounds like every car I've ever owned!!

And I think he may be putting his clothes back on, and bursting his balloons!
On a good run it can take about 50mins, we have known it 1hr 30mins. We chose Malvern Hills so that if needed we can get up to Staffs quite quickly.
Won't get tree till December, By then hope to be able to exchange pressies as well, I'm always the least organised as far as that goes
My first car was squashed by a large lorry when lorry skidded on ice.
Nope-take us as they find us-I did say the house is what I like to call -"lived in"
-should I get dressed then?
Have just put the bins out-not even 4 o'clock and Chris you are right it is gloomy
Was the Ford Popular black?
I now fancy pork pie and crisps

Just had a random thought-as you do-I wonder what happened to smallswan?
Bjay-I trust you were not in the car at the time?
30 minutes to the big visit
