  12. Snow day today for my kids (one from work, one from school!)

    1. chaliepud

      chaliepud

      No snow here yet so older two have gone on the bus to school, just hope they let them out early as the bus has to negotiate a steep dangerous road and has failed before meaning the kids have to walk across the country park to get home!!

       

    2. Booknutt

      Booknutt

      I've asked the Angels to keep an eye on them, Chalie. Think positive, and you'll help them.

    3. chaliepud

      chaliepud

      They were fine, we've spent an exhausting 2 hrs sledging, now home for bangers and mash!

    1. Janet

      Janet

      *First medal in this discipline...

       

      I do feel sorry for the Ukrainian team.

    2. Karsa Orlong

      Karsa Orlong

      Tbh, I felt kind of sorry for the Japanese guy in the first place - he was trying to do his routine when all the cheering was going on - must've been very distracting.

  19. Oh great, snow. Walking to work is going to be fun at this time of morning. :-/

    1. Maureen

      Maureen

      Gosh, that's an early start Janet!

    2. Genevieve

      Genevieve

      Yes dear one, I know what you mean. But alas for me I walk, I trip , I fall. I get up and walk, I trip and I fall. Even the birds are smirking behind my back along with the two blind guys on our street. I have no dignity left. The very best new year to you. :)

  20. Happy Advent 1 everyone - bring on the Christmas Carols and songs and films and books! :D

    2. Janet

      Janet
