Came downstairs early to see if Santa had left smilies.
He hasn't been.
But it may be that the smilies need to be plugged in when someone is on hand to do the job, so it may have to wait till Monday, or until one of the eleves comes in to work later today. There may be a box of smilies sitting on a desk somewhere in London, right now.
The advent calendar competition is up and running. Forkers do represent the bulk of those posting on here, and there seems to be a prize every day. I'd think there is a good chance that several forkers will be winners.
Bit of a surprise in the jungle last night, and final instalment tonight.
Might buy myself some more Christmas pressies on Amazon today.
These web adverts are getting very smart. Just been on the Daily Mail website, and was greeted by a big advert for Geoff Hamilton's DVD Box Collection (which I mentioned in a post on here yesterday). Someone has been watching me. Santa?
Also noticed a novel stocking filler advertised on the Telegraph website. A garden drinks holder - to hold your glass of champers, Pimms, or gin and tonic, while gardening: http://www.plantsupports.co.uk/c/drink_holders
They also have a mug holder for those who prefer cocoa.
Have had errands to do this morning, next job to take dogs for walk then belly dancing in a shopping square at 1 - have to sort out thermals to wear under costume! I expect our shimmying will be exceptionally good today ;- )
Can't get excited about buying Christmas pressies. OH offered to buy me slippers yesterday :- ( . I must offer him my list.

Yep Inka - topical. Now they say it may rain over the weekend!
Night Dean. Very excited about competitions. Wouldn't it be great if a Forker won
I never win anything
Nor me.
OH is always saying that (re: cartoon)

First day of advent
-it has gone 10-been up since 7-where is everybody?-still snuggling under the duvet?
Have entered the competition-got all my bits crossed again-hope I got the question right
Defrosted the bird bath-chickens in the garden trying to peck frozen grass
Gary has a stalker

Waiting for the signal to start the advent calendar guessing games-Becks should be here with her part
Wave, wave. I'm here.

Here you are Gary
How the heck did you get them.
Don't send them to me.
It's the elves at GW who ought to have them, then they can stick them on the widgetty-bar-thingy, for us all to use.
Something has obviously gone wrong with the addressing or sorting.
You just can't get the staff.
