No Geoff - It's a full on ghost story . Honestly, it's the most scariest film I've ever seen and believe me , I've seen a lot. I didn't flinch when I first saw the Excorsist but this one ! Just glad I didn't watch it before I went to bed. Becks would love it.
Am back. Shattered, but have got all the things for daughter that I wanted & cleared it with OH. Bit more £ than intended, but makes up for her slightly reduced birthday pressie this year.
I do usually try to spend more on birthdays than Christmas for people, but this yr somehow it didnt quite happen. Now must check enough wrapping paper.
I didnt find anything remotely suitable for SIL. So yet another giftcard, but it's valid for 2yrs & if we do find something, unlikely IME, then OH said we can use it!
I had intended to call into a big B&Q on the way back, but with the traffic & lack of energy I just came home. I shall try our local one if nec on Friday.
Bjay- the road to Mway from Malvern via Worcester, I presume, is always bad for flooding. Do think this year has been exceptional though. Shant venture out again, although should redo the birds' fat feeder. J.
Sorry I missed morning registration. I won't get my end of term prize now. It wasn't pluveating for a change so raked some leaves up, but the ground is so soggy I'm doing more harm than good.
I'll have to look out for that film Jean, it sounds good.
Watched 'Last Tango in Halifax' last night and quite enjoyed that.
My daughter has just rung to see if I want to watch one of the 'Twilight' films tonight. the grandchildren have dental appointments so can go straight on from there. Quite honestly I'd rather stay in and watch Hugo in the jungle but don't want to be boring.
Aha. thought Id seen that guy somewhere before , Geoff . Must confess . not really a Harry Potter fan but have seen Deathly Hallows . I think thats what it was called .
I'm overawed with the exuberance of your voracity.
I took this photo out of the bedroom window this morning. It's a windmill being erected if you can't make it out. There's a big crane there ready to lift the blades up. It's about two miles away and the ash tree in front is about fifty yards from the house. We won't see it in the summer unless the ash trees succumb to that disease. Some farmer stands to make a bit of money now.
The Woman in Black starring Daniel Radcliffe as lawyer Arthur Kipps is a remake of a film of the same name starring Adrian Rawlins as the lawyer, made in 1989. Same story though so probably equally as scary!
Jo, take it easy now and have a cuppa and relax!
Becks, well done on the Xmas shopping! I remember when our boys were young enough to be given 'pre-loved' presents and not know the difference! Saved a fortune. We managed to get a Little Tykes car one year for £1. That same year the two older ones got bikes and all the presents were in our neighbours garage to stop the boys finding them. OH went to get them on Xmas eve once the boys were asleep and he came back 3 hours later very much worse for wear and promptly fell asleep on the sofa!
Oh that brings back momories Lottie. We used to have the presents for the kids across the road from our first house. Bikes stored on the bottom of stairs landing -an open plan house & gardens. The 2 youngest lads kept either kicking their ball to under the window & then trying to see in, or knocking with some silly excuse & craning their heads to try & see!
Becks- dont forget Father Christmas must use different wrapping paper to you or sis or Granny..... oops, learnt my lesson there. J.
Those are the Christmas' we remember Lottie that didn't seem so funny at the time, but have a good laugh about it afterwards.
We didn't have much money when my son and daughter were little but we bought a second hand chopper bike one Christmas and my son still says it was the best present he ever had. Nowadays there are some lovely toys at boot sales. They seem so expensive in the shops and don't seem to have much play value. There doesn't seem to be adverts on television for the must have toys now. Have they clamped down on them?

Pants back on
and going upstairs now. 
And remember.
Harry Potter played by Daniel Radcliffe who stars in Women In Black-sometimes I think I am just a bit too subtle

Good afternoon all,
