Before I nod off in a food / booze coma, here is our new thread!

We've had a lovely, chilled, day building Lego. I should probably eat more cheese to really finish the day in style though. 🧀🧀🧀

Who knows if people are accepting that first negative result? Not much to be done about it though I suppose.

Snowing quite heavily now

No snow here. Really cold and frosty though.

I'm in jersey which screwed up their handling. I've had 4 hours sleep as he bunked. In with me and spiked a temp and complained of stomach ache and has the shit as well as coughing like mad

Poor sausage. I hope he's better soon.

Oh I thought it was going ok in jersey too. Sorry to hear that, it does sound like he might have it. Hope you all feel better soon

Thanks guys. Really worried about him

I would be too, poor thing.

Sorry to hear about your ds chips. Paracetamol and keeping fluids up.

Afternoon everyone. We have snow. Quite heavy actually, but it probably won't settle as the ground is wet.

Sorry to hear that Babychips is not well Chips hope he feels better soon.

He's been covid swabbed just waiting for the result but may have ti take him to be seen as his breathing isn't brilliant

Do you have the equivalent of 111 there, Chips? Though if you're concerned, I'd say the sooner you get him there the better.

puss you are a very bad influence with the cross stitches - those coo's are beautiful!

I hope baby chips is feeling better.

Sorry I have been MIA as house stuff has kept me busy. It should start calming down soon though.

Thought you'd all appreciate my Dunelm bargain - £1.25 🎄

I forgot to say, I bought my first Christmas presents yesterday: bargain duvet covers from Argos. One for each child.

Those would give ds nightmares he's scared of everything at the moment

Oh no! Our two love fishy things, so should be OK! 🤞

I have been lurking a bit but not posting, I am still with y'all.

Tomorrow is Rudolph Day #1
And Burns Night .

I made some nice soup for tomorrow

No bargain shopping though !

Our melted slushy snow is now frozen solid. Luckily I don't have to leave until gone 11 today so hopefully it'll be a bit better but then. It's meant to be 2° by 11. Still have to get the dc to the bus though.

Morning!

We have a hard frost but no more. Frozen slushy snow is one of the reasons I hate snow. It's so dangerous.

Our max temp is 6° today, feels like 1°. Sunny and breezy so the washing should dry.

Do your kids get a bus to school, Wreck?

Yes they get a mini bus. I think it's meant to be sunny here too, my phone says it feels like -4 at the moment 🥶

It's a tropical fells like 0° here. It was between -3° and -5° all day yesterday. Chilly.

I had a slightly-frozen allotment!

Morning. The snow is frozen as we are at a balmy -4. I have a training course this morning which sounds similar to the last one I did, just longer. Then on a late. Going to do everything from home though, our office is not being manned today due to the weather.

Morning! Happy 1st Rudolph Day of 2021! 10 more to go

Morning everyone. Cold here and quite icy on the ground. Had a Facetime with my daughter last night, always cheers me up. Happy Rudolph's Day to you all. [fsanta]

Hot homemade soup sounds lovely right now 70

I love snow but hate the slush too Fluffy

Afternoon
Nearly all my snow from last week has gone, there's a stubborn bit in the shadow of the shed that won't shift. Neighbours Snowman is still going strong even though it's sunny.⛄
Fluffy, I do worry about your poor garlic. 😟
Happy Rudolf day everyone. 🥂
Lachy, erm, 11?
DH has just dragged his sorry arse gone for a nap in the conservatory - I may need to cover him in a frost proof fleece.😇😂
