Unfortunately not because i work in a carehome and its part of my working week@karen8967 Have you had any time off this holiday?
Morning folks, hope you are all well and looking forward to New year, any poorly ones, sending a big get well hug <3
I have to stay in today, as one of my windows won't lock, so it is un-secure. It is an emergency repair so someone will be out in the next 24 hrs, which could mean during the night, depending on how busy they areNot keen on that, as it's just me and my daughter here, but the window must be secured. I have tied a large shoe lace to the broken handle and tied it to the other one.

I used to go over to Lismore for hogmanay. Loads of dancing, singing and a trip round the island on an old fire engine.Yeah, Diakat, xmas up here is a bit, meh, whatever, but we really go to town on Hogmanay!

Ha @Scott-C, They say visitors are like fish, they go off after a couple of days.Hi, all, hope you all had a good one!
Spent some time with the folks, but, jeesh, it was a relief seeing them get on the train - there's only so much time any person can spend listening to two 80 yr olds telling you about the roofing problems their next door neighbour is having, and how some person called Isa, who I have never ever met and have absolutely no interest in, is going to be in hospital next week. Etc. Etc.
This just about sums it up for me:

Even escaping to the pub for a while wasn't that great - swamped with 'festive drinkers":

Things are settling down on that front for a few days before the main event arrives - xmas is just a wee pretendy holiday, Hogmanay is the proper one!
