Woa-oh, we're halfway there...Countdown to Christmas 2021 (thread 4)

[NoWordForFluffy]

Here is thread 4 this year. With an appearance from Mr Bon Jovi himself!

And the small ones...

Oh for goodness sake. Sorry for the repeat.

Lovely trees, peach! We 'only' have 2 trees as well. The kids got a bigger tree last year so have extra fun with their decorating! 🎄🎅🏻🎄

Who'd have thought you'd become a smuggler post-Brexit though?!

Love the Kelpies Fluffy that is near-ish my DParents house but I've never been to see them ( the Kelpies that is , not The Parents !)

On the M80 there's a statue of a woman or mermaid with six arms or something (I'm driving though so never get a good look )

From what I remember of Kelpies they are evil little buggers who will try and kill you by dragging you underwater and the only way to scupper them is shout out their real name .

I took DS and DD for their vaccines (2nd dose ) so they're happy to get that sorted out .
Bought some shoes which I'm wearng right now ( I hate buying shoes ) they are so nice and comfy .
Doing some tidying up and washing , the glamour .

MaleCat brought a Red Admiral in , placed it on the carpet with an "aren't I fabulous " look.
It was still alive and flying so I caught and released it .

peach I'm debating whether I should try a Cjristmas Tree this year . The past two years out Female Cat has sabotaged it . First Christas with us the tree lasted less than four days .
When I went to visit our Cats-to-Be I asked if they were ok with wires .
They are fine with TV cables , charger cables , computer leads . In their fosterhome they were fine with vivarium wires .
But Christmas Tree lights are a step too far for madam !

Yay Christmas trees!

This morning we went to a games place, you paid for an hour and got to use all of he old school arcade machines as much as you liked. It was pretty good fun. Then we watched cruella and after that went to the pub for a few drinks.

We're home. Whoop!

Shitty drive as it was chocka with BH traffic round the Lakes on the M6. But, we made it OK and we've eaten dinner.

I've watered my chilli plants and the lemon tree and noted that the grass needs mowing again! Can't wait to sleep in my own bed later!

Ah peach you're making me give up my resident Nordie position 😂. Welcome on board.

Back from Center parcs. We absolutely loved it but we spent so much money, I can't even look at my bank account.

Morning!

It's so nice to be in my own bed. The bed in the cottage was small and very, very uncomfortable. It was also nice to sit and cross stitch without being overwhelmed with the smell of dog!

We have Sainsbury's coming soon and I'm also popping into town to get the bonus points items we want on DH's card plus also looking for Christmas magazines while I'm in town.

The kids have a week's worth of Minecraft to catch up on, I think! 🤣

I type slowly, 70! 🤣
