The world hasn't ended in Australia, and it's tomorrow there, so if we get notice it's going to end here, we can all clear off to Oz :-D

No there aren't Wend. The supposed end of the world/Mayan calendar was at the time of the solstice which was between 11:11 and 11:12 GMT.

Everything is done, and all is ready, with another three days to relax ready for the big day. Only got the Mince Pies to bake, and I do them on Christmas Eve, when l
listen to the Carol Service recorded in Derby Cathedral last week.
Family troops visiting tomorrow to exchange parcels.
Yep, very Happy

All prepared, all shopping done. No more ventures into the supermarket until after Christmas. Bliss!
Oh, wait a minute, Dad has decided he wants to give a present to a carer he'd overlooked. Haven't got a spare in the house, so it's back to the shops tomorrow, Damn!! :-| :-|

hubby will be pleased he moans all winter keeps asking how long til shortest day but today he has been extra grumpy must be the moon phases lol.

Just finished rug making for LIssy so can now deliver that and may even have a few days rest for my hands and arms to recover before Zo starts on at me to start hers that she asked for.

As for the CHristmas thing really not in the mood not even done a normal christmas shop so wont be putting weight on this year. Will look forward to usual lay in on CHristmas morning as mine dont get up early and hopefully will be fit enough to spend day up with them and not like lately in bed but always remember theres others that are worse off than me.
