    Jean I am sure you will all have a greay Christmas once all the streaa of last few months has lifted and your family is settled.

    Returned from my supermarket trip. OH lost his cool before we had lsft vegetablesimage

    I reminded him he had promised I could look so then he valmed down, Just moaned about never being able to find me.!

    OH has a Kindle equivalent - it keeps him very happy

    Worrying though when litle ones have coughing fits. Hope she is wide awake and full of bounce now.

    Erm, Bjay, have you been on the wine again! imageimageimage Yes, she seems ok, but not eating much. She's normally non stop. Bloomin kids!

    Morning jean!

    Bjay, I think the streaa of your supermarket trip has had an effect on your typing!
    I am imagining your OH as he valms down :- D

    I like my wheelbarrows in British Racing Green.

    Have bought my OH a subscription to his favourite photography mag.  for Christmas but will have to think of a few small things to wrap up. If I can buy them online so much the better.

  • Poor Jess and Becks.

    There's a lovely site  called 'North Pole' that has lots of Christmas activities she might like.

    Also one for Geoff. You can go to the NORAD site. It looks out for hostiles invading American airspace. This time of year it tracks Santa's progress across the globe. Just be careful they don't think you are hacking into their computors.

    Best of luck with your daughter's move. It's a busy time of the year to cope with a move as well.

    Whoops. I forget to proof read!

    Should read 'great' not 'grey', what a terrible mistake Sorryimage

    Surely you get the idea of everything else. And I know there is a spell check.

    My family all moan about my texts because I never check them

    After a lot of moaning I just sent big son texts without predictive text so he just had the first letter on the key. He's intelligent so I let him work the message out!

    Rain has started image

    Morning all those who have apeared today -have had more traumas with IT-seems sorted again nowimage

    Becks-poor Jess-is she still off to nursery this afternoon?-tell her to pack in the fagsimage

    Can we have wheelbarrow racing on Boxing Day?-just after the ritual slaying of one Gary Hobsonimage

  • OH already has a Kindle, what I need to know is how I go about buying a book to go on it?

    Got a bit of a headache today, think I'll go and have a lie down - oh, I can't - no sofas here!

    I think Kindles are sold at prices which are lower than the cost of manufacture, so Amazon make a loss on the sale.

    But they recoup that loss through the cost of book sales that buyers subsequently make. The cost of buying books on Kindle isn't much cheaper than buying paper copies.

    I'm surprised that Kindles aren't used by school children. When I was at school we had to lug a sachel full of books around. It would have been so much more convenient to have the whole lot in a little tablet.

    Printed school books are very costly, about £20-£40 each.

    Hooray we are going to have festive facesimage

    No sofas??

    Last year as I was so fed up of people commenting that we had  no rain here I asked for a rain gauge for Christmas!  I read it every day. Oddly since I had it we no longer have drought

    Sorry everyone.
