I noted a car, simular in colour with shimmer yesterday and went yeah, na, still haven't forgiven my parents for making my room lilac, my entire childhood life :
Lots of bad news on the TV about flooding in the south-west, so am hoping nothing untoward is happening at the cap'n's gaff.
We're okay up here in the north-west, and am going with the cabin boy to the local cancer hospital where her choir will entertain folks at lunchtime tomorrow.
Just had word from the Captain she's utterly devastated as she is locked out of A2K and can't thank everybody individually for your kind birthday wishes. She'll keep on trying to get back on line. Odd I had the same problem down here this morning.
and big hugs and kisses xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
(I keep getting locked out Too excitable methinks!
which actually made me giggle a little... who knew ...... Try Again is such a naughty boy!)
<yes yes, it's taken me this long to get bavk on>

........ with my little broken rib,
Hope your day is perfect....
Thanku FS It has been as poifect as it could be, thanku, and thanku for all your wishes. I do hope your rib mends well, Danny told me all about it... all I can say is, if you're gonna break a rib, then at least it was done having fun! I broke a few whilst coughing when Charlie was weaning A-bear-girl - she had cabbages on her boobs and I was trying not to cough too loudly after settling the girl from the tantrum of not having a boob... I ended up in hospital for 8 days and discovered an allergy to pethidine at the same time! All good times and the best memories. <cough> I hope yours improves very quickly and you'll have a great Christmas and a bit of a rest.

Dreams, wishes, do and continue to come true, they are... true.

Happy Birthday, Izzie!
We are having this at home today (in honor of your birthday, of course).
Thanku jw…. It was stupendous and weirdly, I have some stolen in the kitchen which I mad earlier (dammit my nose just grew)… OK… so I didn’t make it and haven’t had it before the Tesco man one so nice he remembered I had a spider phobia so I didn’t have the heart to make him go back or feel bad that I’d ordered Christmas slices. Stollen it iz, gonna try it tomorrow. Hope you and yours have a super time and that the boys and Katrina, Annie and family will be with you. x

What beautiful photos , you know you can't blow that candle out though don't you ?
heheh, we had two attempts and then burnt the cake, couldn't cut the icing.... it was a disaster of errors and we laughed all the while... I didn't get a birthday cake, Sean forgot and Mom forgot... so we had the Christmas Cake ... it was so hard because the icing was about an inch thick.... yummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmy (so bad ) Scrumbly it was. So worth it. No candles... so we got the sparklers.
Ha, and if you think that's disorganised... guess what... no table for Christmas dinner... may have to eat on the floor... hahahhah... we'll figure something out, have I ever been anything other than last minute.com. ha.... all makes for an exciting and laughable occasion. Gosh, jaw ached from smiling too much, which makes me smile even more. Must go to bed tho... have a million and six things to do tomorrow for my parents... and Crimbo shopping also. GOSH! HA...

thank you all so much for making my day special...

and some subjects I can't touch upon because they're bad for me...
but I'm at the helm
I value you all
you help to make my world a better place.
To those I love, near and far... I love you so....
