Ok Joy :-S ;-)

Belle my cousin bought Fly and Gypsy a pressie :-D one lasted 5 minutes the other about half an hour before they were in the bin :-0

I can imagine Ralphie, Belle. He must have you giggling. :-D

Right, film over and I'm going to see to my ablutions and attire :-S :-D

Have to really think what day of the week it is .....Xmas always puts me out of kilter :-0

Bit gloomy here today :-(

Morning Fly <3 :-D

Just been watching Ralphie looking to find places to hide his Christmas stash ;-) :-D

Good morning Belle. :-)

Footy, strange happenings but that's life, I think. I just get on with it as I think most folk do. :-)

Hiya Belle :-D <3

It does OneFoot <3 scary :-(

Morning Everyone~~~~~ <3

Barbs <3 and Fly <3 although we read about these sort of things every day it really brings it home when it happens on your own doorstep :-(

yesterday was the first time ever I did washing on a Boxing Day..... and hung it out :-0 :-0 :-0

Good morning One Foot and Dermot :-) :-)

Good job you didn't go to the mall, Footy.

I hope you both enjoy your day.

It's dry here and the sun is making a good effort; I don't think it will stay that way though as the forecast is for rain later on.

Good morning One Foot, how awful, what is the matter with these maniacs

Enjoy your day hun <3

Morning Dermot :-D :-D :-D

Hi OneFoot :-D <3 lucky you stayed home <3

Hi Dermot :-D <3 our service was at 9.15 ;-)

Morning Dermot ;-) hope all is well with you and yours :-) and that you had a lovely Christmas :-) take care and enjoy your day ;-)

No Fly. In walking distance, I meet three friends every Friday morning and occasionally my sister joins us.

Also in walking distance, I meet a friend I've known for almost 50 years most Tuesday mornings (she's the almost-80 year old who inspires me to keep fit and get moving).

On Sunday morning the Friday three always meet and most times I join them, occasionally with hubby.

The Friday three meet almost every morning so I join them sometimes on Mondays and Thursdays. Also, a group of retired colleagues meet once a month for coffee and about once a month I meet a cousin for lunch and a friend for lunch.

I used to do voluntary work for three bodies but this year I've let one drop and I'm thinking of dropping another so I can give more time to the remaining one as its volunteers are, in the main, as old or older than I am and some are finding it increasingly difficult to get around.

It sounds as though I am always out but I'm not 'cos, believe me, I can sit for England when I feel like it.

:-D

Last week's church Newsletter mentioned:-

'Christmas Eve Midnight Mass with carols from 10:30pm'. :-S

Morning Mersey <3 Barbs <3 Fly <3 JoyLouise <3 I hope you all enjoyed what you were doing on Boxing Day and that you are now looking forward to welcoming in the New Year when it arrives :-) likewise anyone else who pops in today <3

The forecast for my corner of Kent is for a very cloudy day with some outbreaks of rain or drizzle :-) but this will peter out during the afternoon with it becoming mainly dry by the end of the day :-) and with the temperature here hovering at about 55°F :-) it should feel mild again today :-)

And remember nothing in life should be taken for granted :-) we are living in very disturbing and uncertain times and the phrase "There but for the grace of God go I" will have been in the thoughts of many following the various violent incidents that have taken place this year :-) well that phrase is certainly in my thoughts at the moment because yesterday armed police were called to an incident in The Intu (Glades) Shopping Centre in Bromley after reports of a man wielding a 2ft long machete and a gang of youths with knives :-( this is large shopping mall in the centre of Bromley just a few miles from me which would have been packed to the gunnels and normally on Boxing Day I would have been in that mall beep beeping around on my mobility scooter ;-) checking out what was on offer in the sales ;-) but due to the miserable weather I decided to stay at home :-)

So whatever you will be doing and wherever you are or wherever you may be going ;-) be vigilant :-) stay safe :-) take care :-) keep warm :-) and enjoy your day ;-) and don't forget to smile :-)

<3 I hope everyone has a nice relaxing and enjoyable Sunday <3
