What made you smile today?

[Candy]

I found one I missed!

Olive and Mabel the Biscuit Scam

Oh! I'd forgotten about that one! I think I saw it during the first lockdown, it's one of my favourites, thankyou for reminding me about it.

 

[Candy]

Pee Ess, the cold is very minor but has been a good excuse to batten down the hatches this stormy night, send apologies to people who I said I'd meet for a couple of drinks in the pub, stay at home, stoke up the fire, eat stew and drink a couple of glasses of really terrible cheap whisky with added lemon juice, cloves, honey and boiling water. Purely medicinal, you understand! ....... Am I just imagining it, or can I hear our Scots contingent gnashing their teeth? If so, I'm sorry!

 

[Cath]

More Olive and Mable

Snowing here.

Snowing here.

Snowed here as well! Stopped now. Yesterday afternoon, there was a dusting of snow on the hills.

 

[Cath]

Here too

 

[Stacia]

I now see there is snow on the hills, it looks very pretty.

I'm still sneezing a lot and GGJ has obviously decided that she needs to up her game in the looking after me department. Now every time I sneeze she tries to climb onto my lap! OK, she's small for a labrador, but all the same.....

She obviously is doing her best to look after you

You have got off very lightly. When I sneeze, Bear jumps on my head. Quite literally. I'm slowly training him to be calmer around sneezes and it's working but he finds them completely fascinating and very, very exciting. Annoyingly I sneeze a lot and OH hardly ever does

 

[Candy]

Yes, that's it, without a doubt, bless her!

Sounds like I'm getting off comparatively lightly then....

 

[Lab_adore]

I can't believe I missed lovely Rory's birthday. Happy very belated birthday dear boy

 

[Emily]

Well... Someone is clearly not a fan of Santa

 

[Jacqui-S]

Oh dear.
That was Sophie when she was a toddler. Traumatised by Brewster Bear among others. Santa was just too scary.
Our first day at Disneyland was a hoot

 

[Selina27]

Well I'm with Jackson, I found the whole idea of Santa very scary as a child - the thought of an old man roaming round the house after dark was to awful to contemplate

 

[Lab_adore]

I love how Nathan is being such a good big brother and trying to soothe poor Jackson

I'm a bit traumatised by (a) Santa in a mask and (b) the kids having to be so far away. Sigh, this is the world we live in at the moment

 

[Loraseal]

Thank goodness I am not the only one who found Santa in a mask traumatising!

 

[SwampDonkey]

After looking round for a while we have found a replacement for Big Bird.
This is our new car yet to get a name.
