Thanks Roger!

We are having a later dinner today too. The turkey is riddled with holes from the meat thermometer but is just not co-operating lol

My son surprised me with a bloody big Pikachu - I mean massive. I LOVE it :-)

Wishing peace and joy to everyone.

Outpourings / Merry Christmas!

I hope you all have a wonderful time. The Kettle gathering will consist of eight adults and one very excited two and a half year old. I will be donning my Beau Peep apron (anyone still got one of those?) to prepare the Christmas meal which we eat around 5.30. At around 4.30, I will be joined in the kitchen by a generous gin and tonic. Cheers!
Enjoy yourselves!

I bet she makes you walk to the pillar box to post them too, Roger. Life is so unfair at times!

My wife buys all the Christmas cards, writes a message in each of them, addresses the envelopes and then asks me to sign my name alongside hers. For some reason, when I say "Just go ahead and write my name---nobody will know", it does not go down well.

Outpourings / Christmas Cards

Canada Post has been on strike for about a month now. No one will be getting Christmas Cards from me this year for this reason, instead of not getting Christmas Cards from me due to me being a lazy git.

You saw parts of Canada that I have never seen Nige!

We in northern Alberta are under snowfall warning (up to 50cm) and that is on top of the snow we already had and already cleared out the driveway last week. I have a plan to spend the day tidying up and Christmas decorating. I am one of those oldies that have CDs of Christmas tunes so that of course is the first step in a decorate plan, blasting Bouble.

I am still playing Pokemon, been trying to get a Shiny Wooloo (black sheep) for three months so was happy to catch one last night at the Santa parade. You may think this is odd but there is a whole Facebook group called "Old Ladies Playing Pokemon" so I am not odd by myself.

Hope everyone is starting to feel a bit christmassy

I read a really good book a few years ago, it had a bit with a Sasquatch family and was supposedly based on a true story. "The Long Walk" by Slavomir Rawicz - you might enjoy it too.  It also has a bit with a bear.

I'm confused. You're saying a family of mythical North-American Sasquatch were holidaying in the Gobi Desert, Tibet, or the Himalayas in 1941?

Pleased to see the interest in my post. Have been home now for several weeks.


I was loving the saga! The suspense between your posts was killing me.

The moose saw your post.

I was interested! Although, I'd have been more interested if you'd bumped into Diane riding a moose over a beaver dam.
