wreck I bet Lapland was amazing! I’ve never been abroad but I’d love to go somewhere with snow at Christmas.

Mrs Austin is quite popular, they’re 2 boys called Austin my Dnephews class!. I’m not a huge fan of the others though, but my DD’s names are in the top 100, I’m not very creative😂

Emrys that’s beautiful!

EmrysAtticus · 12/10/2019 17:58

Just realised I haven't done the edging 😭

Mrs they've had the tv on all day but after they stopped moaning there's been no arguing!

Til it was the absolute best! I would go again in a heartbeat if I could afford it.

WreckTangled · 12/10/2019 18:19

The church in that photo is the one from the Coca Cola advert!

TilandPop · 12/10/2019 18:20

WreckTangled · 12/10/2019 18:30

Mrsmadevans · 12/10/2019 18:30

wreck it looks amazing!. I’d love to go.

mrs I’m not a big fan of it myself really!

NerosFiddle · 12/10/2019 20:55

TIL I'm in Liverpool.

I'm having a great time so far. Will try and catch up properly tomorrow. Have a good Saturday night everyone.

EmrysAtticus · 13/10/2019 06:03

Me too. People are starting to come good now, aren't they? Has Anton ever had a score that high before too?! 😁 Loved it!

Morning. Waiting to see if football is still on. There was a bit of moaning this morning about YouTube but we've got highway rat on now. I've got three loads of washing to fold 😭

Chocolateteabag · 13/10/2019 08:44

Morning!
Had a lovely day making gingerbread with DS2 and his little friend while DS1 was out on an all day activity birthday party for his BF
Then ironed while watching downloads of Fixer Upper (season 3 - I need 4/5 to hurry up and be shown) so not Christmassy but still vv good day

Now have rugby, another birthday party (DS2's turn) then going to friends for Sunday lunch, then I have a play rehearsal! Very glad yesterday was chilled!

wreck we had lots of snow in N Yorks from mid Nov onwards in 2010 - as I was house bound with DS1 for weeks! I like seeing snow but only when I don't need to go out in it, otherwise it gives me huge anxiety attacks

Managed to miss strictly last night by having a bath for ages (proper wrinkly fingers)

Mrsmadevans · 13/10/2019 10:06

Morning 😁
Fluffy they are getting good aren't they? I love it . Anton is my favourite ❤️ . I vote for the ones l like at risk because the others will never be sent home in a dance off. David was much better than last week but l think he will go .
Chocolate your day with the little ones sounds wonderful 🤗❤️
Wreck keep it up 💪👍 they will soon forget about YT 😊
I love you folding the washing good girl , no ironing unless absolutely necessary and then only collars and cuffs 🤣
Sorry Woolly 🤗💐
Am off to Cyfartha park after the game to pick up an order from Wilkinson's . Have a great day everyone 😀

CrazyBaubles · 13/10/2019 10:46

Thank you for the Isle of Man ideas. Id never heard of a Manx cat but I think I'll build something around that.

Just a quick hello from me. It's really cold here (not wheels kind of cold though). I'm going to the range soon with my parents - supposed to be helping mum pick out some bits but really I'm hoping for a Christmas section Xmas Smile

NoWordForFluffy · 13/10/2019 10:50

I know who's out, Mrs (I'm on a spoiler Facebook page and can't stand watching any more Tess than is necessary!).

It's wet here, drying soon though, I think.

Fluffy l am not allowed to look at the spoilers lol. DH and Dd2 would see it as a betrayal 🤣🤣🤣.
It's like a running joke in our 🏠 house 😂
Crazy that sounds adorable basing it around the Manx 🐈 cat😁. Have a lovely time with your family and take pics if you can for us LTR 😁
Will go to Trago to see the Christmas display, will take pics if it is good 😊😊
Honestly ppl must think we are nuts 😂

Mrsmadevans · 13/10/2019 11:38

Wheelie is obviously absolutely exhausted from the Fayre rides. Hope you had a wonderful time m'dear 🤗

TilandPop · 13/10/2019 11:38

neros I hope you have a great time!

chocolate god what a busy day for you! I want to try and make a ginger bread house from scratch this year rather than buying the pack.

Has anyone heard off Dave? I hope her DGM’s alright.

It’s cold and cloudy today, it rained over night so it’s damp but not too bad. DD’s are going down for a nap soon so I will give the house a clean as it’s a mess. Then we’re off to DM’s for our roast. We were looking at videos of me from when I was little and DD1 is my image, it was crazy!.

Mrsmadevans · 13/10/2019 11:43

I am afraid Dave has matched the troll MO , Til. Lives and dies us for a few days and then skeddadles off because of an illness, birth, death or some other crisis. I wait to be corrected and will willingly apologise to Dave if they come back.

TilandPop · 13/10/2019 11:45

Oh that’s so sad mrs she seemed lovely!. I hope we’re wrong.

Mrsmadevans · 13/10/2019 11:45

It's lovely to see the family videos ❤️ enjoy the little ones they grow up so fast.
Best shift 🤗 have a great day everyone 😀

Mrsmadevans · 13/10/2019 11:47

I know Til , it's horrible because you believe in them then they let us down. Everyone here is so lovely and protective of each other it's a shame they don't stay with us as themselves. Come back Dave all is forgiven 🤗
