Hi Everyone, Well it's time I put out the rat traps to see if I can catch this bloke who is reported to be lurking around the neighbourhood, breaking into people's houses via their chimneys and leaving his garbage behind.

Would you like to know what I did today. Well first of all I received two very nice e-cards. One was a little strange, but I do somehow recognize the characters. I have also discovered that since the upgrade my computer has no sound. Doesn't seem the same without sound, let me tell you. IT guru is visiting for lunch tomorrow, guess what he will be doing.

But I digress. What have I done today. An essay by Aunty Sherlock.
Dear Diary. Since this morning I have, checked my email, had breakfast, unwrapped the plum pudding, who hoo it worked,
made part of a salad, done a fitness class, taken the blonde one to do her Christmas shopping (and she was suffering from Russian beverage intake, poor dear), cooked the pork, cleaned out the pantry, cleaned out the fridge, put up the Christmas cards, helped OH put up the awning out from the verandah, wiped over the kitchen cupboards, had a peanut butter sandwich for lunch, went to greengrocers where they had everything on special, moved everything from the verandah including OHs spare shoes which were full of cobwebs, hosed down verandah, chairs, table, (no not the shoes, but I was tempted) to remove leaves, dog hair (Spot again), spiders, spider webs, and other associated accumulations, put a cover over OHs this tool bench and assorted tools paint cans oil can and other manly type objects of importance which are on the verandah and can not be moved, bench, because we are having a three and a five year old visit tomorrow, think I had a meat pie for tea, found the foldable tables in the shed, at the back, next to the Christmas tree and tree decorations, cleaned the tables and put them up, put the cushions back on the chairs I had cleaned, decorated the apricot tree with Christmas decorations, put the Christmas tree back in the shed, unpacked the fruit and veg, cleaned the fruit stand and put the fruit in it, sighed each time I walked past the kitchen sink which sort of has our tea dishes and clean out the pantry plastic containers, all washed but waiting to be dried and put away, and there is no confounded way I am going to ask, was told not to do too much, because I'll be tired, there will be plenty of time tomorrow, took a family phone call, and sat down and started to type this.

Any part of this you do not understand, and if you are brave enough, please feel free to ask questions!!

Ooh I do like the idea of the silver contrast for the wedding outfit. Very classy Maz!!

Pleased to see the boakins, the nessiemodo dragons, Kenny, Neckie, Glenn, Sweetpea, and the others have arrived safely in Canada. I wouldn't worry too much about the run in with the authorities. As soon as the boakins start talking about how they helped England win the Ashes from Australia the Canadians will know exactly what they are talking about and should let them into the country.

Hi Angie, thank you for your Chrissy wishes. They are returned with some sunshine and warm weather to brighten your day.

By the way. Does anyone over there want to discuss global warming. Ooops just checking!!!

Australian themed Christmas cards are few and far between. Haven't found one I'd like to share and I'm sure not sending anymore snow and ice. I'll say it with words.

However you celebrate your Christmas I hope you have a wonderful time Enjoy the traditions, the celebrations, the festivities and being with those closest to you be they family or friends.

My Christmas wish is that you be surrounded by the warmth and happiness of this special day, and that the New Year is everything you wish to make you happy and contented.

I am now off to bed. Just need to check out the roof first. Heard a loud clatter a few minutes ago, some swearing and I thought I heard, "Bl**%y Australians, thought they were supposed to have chimney's on their roofs."

Catchya later on.


PS. The speed of this site is as slow as waiting for Santa. Must be lots of cyber traffic.

My day has been a little less energetic than Aunty's day, I can describe it in one line.

Sat with my feet up and watched DVD's all day.

MERRY CHRISTMAS to you all and a HAPPY HEALTHY NEW YEAR.

HAPPY CHRISTMAS AUNTY!!!!!!

I hope you have a wonderful day.

RMS - don't worry, the military guard will be very pleased to let the CPs go by the time they have had them there for a few hours and don't forget, Sweet Pea is there, so I don't hold out the chances of the guards holding them long!!

I'm sure they will arrive at your place in time for Christmas dinner. They don't have very big appetites! NOT!!

Good morning all. Santa has been. OH and I swapped presents like a couple of old pensioners. Spot undid his presents from Santa with great enthusiasm. There is now torn paper strewn from one side of the lounge to the oher. We have had a quiet word to him about allowing intruders into the house without barking. You still have a few more hours to go. I hope Santa has lots of pressies left by the time he reaches you.

Merry Christmas to you all. Hope all them that aren't well recover quickly and all those who are recovering are much weller. Potatoes and pumpkin peeled. Off to do the final bits before the family arrives. Wouldn't it be fun to do this every month instead of just once a year!!

Ducks and runs away very quickly!!!...................................~~~~~~~~~~~~
