Today's cars are far too clever for me. Just had a message on the dash, 'blip battery spent'....ah, new battery for the winter me thinks I...it happens!
Rang the garage (car still under warranty) 'that'll be the battery in the key' he says. 'call in next time you're in town and we'll replace it'....car will still open manually if it gives up the ghost completely, apparently.
Last week I went with Lily's other Nana to watch the middle school production of Ebenezer - it was brilliant Lily was in the choir Yesterday Tolly was a Narrator in the infants school play - we didn't get to see it but Paul did a short video that we will be able to see Next week we are going to Georgie's school to watch their Christmas concert- looking forward to it
The story I am going to tell you next may not make you laugh but it gave me the giggles this morning
My Sister's DIL is from Thailand and since she has lived here has a good command of English - little Emily her daughter- is in Nursery school and it was the christmas play yesterday - Emily was an Angel in it. There is a little boy in her class who can sometimes be a bit of a handful and his mummy doesn't speak very good english but does talk to my Sister's DIL. Last week this lady asked about what the children should wear in the play and Emily's mummy tried to explain that they could be anything - - reindeer,shepherd etc.The lady said she understood. As my Sister scanned the row of children in the play there were the 3 little Angels,a star,shepherds and wisemen etc and right the end - A policeman!
OH fell over vacuum, moved it fellover it again maybe I shouldn.t have kept it ready
Big room is christamas apart from tree, hall is christmas + as had extra lights
Dining area is lit but not finished. We have had enough too many heated discussions
This is the first time we have christmased this house, first year we were so cramped no room for a table never mind a tree so hung baubles in window, last year we moved into big room 2 days before Christmas so just had a tree, no time to decorate any where else, so this year trying to fit decorations from old house into new!!!!! Tricky especially as I can't remember what we have

I remember starting handles.
Flo-youv'e changed clothes again !!
-we had a sunny spell for 45 seconds just now
King David is already a Christmas persona I suppose
Starting handles, that would be a good name for a thread, David
Geoff, I'm afraid change of clothes is rather a case of shutting the stable door after the ox and the ass have bolted
Just drawn my curtains!! Not even 4pm yet, but so dark!
Another chunk of ironing done!
