    They're always banned at here :blue thumb:

    Kids usually prefer to be sat on their own and carry on their own conversations.

      I hated it when out on a date and they started checking their mobile phones. It was understandable if they had kids, but if not I found it off putting and quite rude.

      I hope you have a wonderful Christmas @Beckie76 , and go steady on that wine :) :dancing:

          @NorthantsGeezer, the mobile phone checking/using saga drives me potty! :gaah: when I'm out I switch my phone on to silent so obviously it only vibrates, that way it doesn't disturb me, if someone needs to contact me urgently they can send a text,message me on messenger, email or leave a voicemail or leave me a message at home! I will respond once I'm free!

          Now on to the subject of wine I'm a bit confussed wine & steady in the same sentence.....is that really a good idea!!! :lunapic 130165696578242 5: :ccheers::ccheers:

          Joking aside I hope you have a nice time too :dbgrtmb::reindeer lights:

            The books I ordered as Christmas presents for my grandkids were on the porch when we got back from the pub last night. There's a worry gone, just stuff with money and wrap and done :hapydancsmil:

            Got work to do but will finish quickly and then decorate my gingerbread men. Tomorrow being the 15th, is the earliest date that I decorate the inside. Usually I just decorate the stairs - down by the treads so that the hand rail is free to use. The side of the stairway faces the front hallway and is in the middle of the house and when decorated is quite eye catching. Will turn on the greenhouse lighting to red and green colours.

            Am thinking about getting a small turkey as well as the big one and smoking it in the wood oven. Just to try it..:)

                    That's what I thought until driving into Oxford city centre last Thursday and ending up with bollards blocking my way and a pedestrian area behind them, had to pay £1.50 to park and walk rest of the way, a real financial disaster.

                    Ah yes, that cheapskate should have bought you a Dyson.

                        Somehow, I've got this funny feeling that Mrs Scrungee might be giving me 5 packets of 'expensive' Thompson and Morgan seeds for Xmas.
