Decorations are down..
« on: Jan 02, 2019, 02:47:05 PM »



Am I too early.? 
I have taken my decorations down..
I wound brown paper around the tree .. I left all the glitter and bells on the tree... Managed to get it upstairs on my own.. Who needs a man.!!

Ours (we only have a small artificial tree) never went up.

It's not come out of the loft for the past four years.

When love was part of my life I always disliked being 'needed'. 'Wanted' is a much better term so perhaps the question might be "Who wants a man?.." ;D  ..(Form an orderly queue at the Co-op.)

Sometimes life gets in the way a partner does end up being needed.

Sadly taking them down early means bad luck. If you don't take them down on twelfth night you must leave them up all year, and eat Christmas dinner weekly, to avoid bad luck!

Me too. Ours all came down yesterday. Well all apart from a star stuck on the wall that had been missed and went in the bin today.

Almost nine years old grandaughter, Mia. Came for a while, yesterday....

We were trimming/ light free, within the hour......  ;)

I chuckled at your mention of Mia, Dave, remembering her triumphant performance in the running race. I assume she now lectures you on pressure to power ratios.. ;D

Shooting game......




Nothing much girly, about that little girly......  ;)

 Oh, Happy New Year to Chris and yourself. Hope it's a good one.

Hope all goes well, with your procedure.
