Evening everyone. No snow here either, but plenty of hoar frost. Had problems getting the car door open this morning.

Another hectic day, but some of it enjoyable being pampered with feet and hair treatments!! Then back to the drudge of shopping!! At long last finished the pressies and been to the supermarket and done the food shopping apart from last minutes bits.

Thank you for your Christmas wishes Derek. I hope you have a lovely Christmas and happy and healthy New Year. If you would like to move a little further north I can keep you really busy in South Yorkshire with my fh!!

I don't want to escape the padded cell!! I am quite happy there. It is a very suitable place for me lol!!

Hi RMS, no frollicking for me LOL. I will sit here in the warm thanks. I am having quite a lot of trouble with the internet tonight so doubt if I will be on here long. My server is apparantly having problems according to the website. Bloomin heck a little bit of snow and the world stops !!!

The chaos at Heathrow is disgusting and is the laughing stock of the international community. What an embarrassment!

All those poor stranded passengers who daren't move away from the airport because nobody is telling them when their flight 'might' take off.

At the moment I am ashamed to be British.

Morning all - Condolences to Frog and the family. It's always a shock when one of your own age group passes unexpectedly. Makes one realise that one should live for the day.

We had some more overnight, but it looks as if there is a thaw at the moment. I was very brave yesterday and went outside to the compost heap, lol. Totally agree about Heathrow, supposedly one of, if not the most, busiest airports in the world. They said they had spent Half a million £ on equipment, but obviously not enough! It seems to be de-icing machinery for the planes that is in short supply.

Hope 'they' sort out the servor problem LG. Who is your provider? Our speed has dropped again, but is usable, so I don't know whether to complain again and get them to reset at the exchange, or let it be.

Hardly recognised you YG! Very nice - lol

Yes, YG, you look lovely, thought we had a new girl.

Sorry to hear of froggy's bad news Maz, it is a shock to the system when it's someone near your own age.

We haven't had any extra snow either but it's forecast for tomorrow. It was -14°C this morning.

Please pass my condolences to Froggy, Maz. It is very sad at any time, but particularly so at ths time of year.

Hey girls, thank you for the compliments!! I've only had a pedicure and my hair done! No colour yet, still thinking about it and of course I said I wanted a trim and was scalped!!

Two and half days to go at work. I am really ready for the break!

oo er look at you YG glamorous thanks for your messages the whole management team are in shock but with 60 residents to think about they will tick over but i think there will be some cuts in the workforce and also froggy may have to find somewhere ele to live however he will have plenty of time i think
he will have a chance of a council house probably but the reason he was offered this place was to help financially for a couple of years give him a chance to turn around
