There you are! How are you Fin? You made me hungry with your talk of meatballs and macaroni. Yum!

Hi! I have nothing to complain about so i guess i am fine then

I just slept for about 15 hours. I didn't know i had sleep decifit. Or maybe i didn't have sleep decifit, it was just too exhausting to eat and eat and eat. Coffee tastes good now.

How are you, then? Christmas mood going on already?

You should have driven into the "Not Allowed" zone and got a pic with the cammo dudes !

Hope you see plenty of meteorites !

And don't spill hot chocolate on your jammies !

a reply to: zazzafrazz

Oh that sounds fun! Wish I could join you! You must look adorable in your jammies and Wookie slippers. LOL

I couldn't get the pages to load earlier and then I closed out and couldn't get on the site at all. But It's working now thank God!

a reply to: Finspiracy

Wow, I guess you needed your rest!

Yes, I have the Christmas spirit going on.

How is your Mom and your friend and his little girl and the kitties?

a reply to: Timely

Hi Dave! That hot chocolate sounds great doesn't it? We'll have to make our own here in the shed I guess. With pixie sprinkles of course.

I know you're out in the bushes lurking. I see you.

Awww, thank you! So pretty and magical!

So, what do the boys want for Christmas, anything special? And what about your 'first' wife? LOL

Dougie is at the cusp of not believing in Santa anymore... He had asked me about it last year because some School friends had told him that it wasn't real - "How could Santa possibly get round all those houses in one night???"
(I told him that the Santa Magic only works if you believe in it!) So, this year he's hedging his bets!
He's leaving a note for Santa with his Christmas "wish list" on it, BUT he's asked Santa (nicely) if he wouldn't mind signing the note to prove that he exists!!!!! LOL It was very sweet.

The boys haven't asked for much, mostly rugby related stuff like Rugby Shirts etc
We actually sent Callum on a Rugby Training Camp to Italy earlier in the year. It was a great experience for him, but very expensive, so he had agreed at the time that the trip would be an early Christmas present!

My first wife never really asks for anything - obviously she has everything that a woman could possibly want already!!! (Ahem!) but I do have a couple of surprises in store!

a reply to: Gordi The Drummer

Dougie's note cracked me up. LOL
Clever. Did he get that from his Mom?
Wow, how awesome that Callum got to train in Italy. What a wonderful experience for him!

I'm guessing one of the gifts for Chrissie is a castle in Accasia. Just reassure her that she'll get used to all the crazy people living there.

It is 3:54 Am and I haven't slept yet.

a reply to: Gordi The Drummer

Now you've made me curious. Is he going to receive a reply from "Santa"? (And hasn't his older brother told him that Santa doesn't exist? My older brother told me and I was heartbroken!)

"Dear Dougie,

I will forgive you for doubting me, this once. Here's yer present...

Santa"

The tree we had for the last ten years was starting to look pretty tattered.
So I broke down and bought a new one for the next decade.
It looks exactly like the old one but maybe an inch smaller.
It was a lot of work setting up the Christmas tree for the season,
but it's always satisfying to see the beauty of the finished work.

Nice Twigmas tree!

ETA Or should it be Twigmas Twee?

a reply to: Errollorre
Charlie Brown would be proud.

a reply to: LightSpeedDriver

Same here Light! It was one of my Brothers who told me and at first I too was heart broken. Then I thought...wow, Mom and Dad made Christmas magical for us all those years, besides what they already did for us. I have beautiful memories to look back on when I think of my Parents and how much they did, not only at Christmas, but all through the years filled with love.

a reply to: Errollorre

I like the twigmas tree too!

Hello Tom!

Hi XXX! Hope your day is going well.

a reply to: Night Star

Yeah my day has been good for a change thanks.

(Got the gist of what the shed is about now after my little blow out a short time ago )

Quite a good thing to have a thread like this actually and refreshing.

Hope you are doing good too?

Oh and if you are having a stressful day or time of it, here is a little music track for you to listen to (use headphones for full audio effect) should bliss you out if you are sitting by a warm fire taking a nice deep breath and slouching, you have to slouch for optimal relaxation haha...

a reply to: XXXN3O

I am well thank you except for the lack of energy. Did you ride your dragon today?

Ride my dragon? Erm, see where I come from that can mean all sorts of strange stuff lol.

Lack of energy, try seafood - Since I tried Basa fish a few weeks back my sleeping pattern has been good so adding it once per month to what I eat. (no verifiable facts to back it up but thought id mention as my diet is very strict, if you want a recipe give me a shout)

I love cats, have a wee Bengal cat myself, but this cat does kinda freak me out
