Re: Happy Tuesday Folk
Good day folks.I'm ashamed to say I'm not even dressed yet - still sitting here in my recliner in my robe.
The wife is off to collect her friend from Aberdeen airport from being on holiday to America, I just hope she remembered to buy me the duty free cigarettes I asked her to. If not, all hell will break loose
She'd better come pretty quickly as I'm down to my last pack and not going to pay £7.50 for a pack at the local shop if I can avoid it.
I really wonder how people can afford to smoke these days, it's so bloody expencive.
Stuff the warnings, all the government needs to do is hike the prices up to £10 a pack and I'd bet a lot of people would find the inspiration to quit, or at least make plenty trips abroad
I do have to go out for the papers though, haven't done that yet.
I suppose I'll do it now.
Hope everybody has a good day.

Got a nice brandy on the rocks and going to open a pack of the Camels my wife's friend brought over from America for me. Haven't had one of those for a long time, and I've got a lot of them now! Thank goodness for Duty Free shops.
The wife is sticking a Frey Bentos pie in the oven for tea and boiling up some tatties to go with it. Mmm.
I am not looking forward to tomorrow - why? Well tomorrow is the day my wife has told me I HAVE TO go out to the shed and take in the Christmas decorations and put up all the lights and flashy things on the roof of the house and the guttering. Oh yes, and I've got to haul the Christmas tree and Santa outdoor "statues" out to the front garden and plug them into the outdoor outlet so everybody can be scared sh*tless when they walk past and the Santa booms "ho ho ho".
Not forgetting I have to put the wreath up on the front door as well.
Meanwhile the wife will do all the indoor decorations with the fire burning and the heating turned up, which I will see through the window when I'm freezing my baubles off moving the Santa statue to my wife's ever so descriptive instructions of "a bit more to the left" and "no wait, a little to the right. OK, now rotate it a bit. No, THE OTHER WAY! That's too much, put it back where it was before... OK, leave it there for now".
And people wonder why my hair is receding.

Re: Happy Tuesday Folk
Good evening all. Been missing for quite a few weeks due to family issues-felt like I've been living on another planet, but now down to earth and will now have to play catch-up not only on here, but also have to get sorted with Christmas cards etc.etc. Tomorrow will be spent in town, battling with the crowds, which I can't say I'm looking forward to, but these things have to be done!Today has been spent sorting out mail that I'd received while I've been away, and then went for a lovely walk round the reservoirs-very cold and frosty, but the scenery was lovely-like a winter wonderland.
