      It's too early in the year and day to hunt for new threads so thanks for the link. :blue thumb:

      Aloha everyone,

      I've taken a break from prepping food :phew: and giving my back a rest. :)

      Keep well and have a great day :biggrin:

      Aloha!

          Good Morning Wakey-wakers

          Thank you @fat controller for the sparkly new thread for the new year. :dbgrtmb:
          @moyra - lovely picture (and sentiment); thank you! :spinning:

          @shiney - Hope you enjoy your guests today and I just know the food will be the top notch :thumbsup: Be gentle with your back :grphg:

          This afternoon the decorations will be taken down and carefully packed away for next year. I'll be packing the scented candles alongside the decorations with the hope that when the boxes are opened next year they will smell of "Christmas" from the start :wub2:

          Wishing good health vibes to those who need them and miles of smiles to all :) :) :)

            What a terrible day it has been, Have walked Amber three times and got soaked each time. I hope everyone else has survived this awful weather, mustn't complain things are so much worse elsewhere. Have a good evening.
            God bless. :wub2:

              Good Morning everyone, is it today we can all get back to normal. I know 12th night isn't for another couple of days but I think most people are returning to work today.

              Have a good day everyone its a horrible Monday again! Stay warm and dry, and above all safe and well.
              God Bless. :wub2:

                Aloha everyone,

                It's starting off as a bright morning :blue thumb: but it's a bit on the nippy side.

                I've been going backwards and forwards to the summerhouse taking back all the chairs and bits of furniture that we needed for our guests yesterday. The event went well and we've already received emails thanking us for a lovely day.

                Now I have to catch up on all the neglected things. :doh:

                Keep well and have a great day :biggrin:

                Aloha!

                  Good Morning,

                  Back to work today :sad:, I've had such a lovely time being off for most of the Christmas period that I'm feeling very reluctant to go back to work! :noidea: This is of course no good & I must get my rear in gear! I'm sure once I get going I shall be fine :blue thumb:

                  I took the trees & decorations down yesterday, everything is nearly packed & boxed up.

                  Good to see you back @"M" :dbgrtmb:

                  I'm keeping my fingers crossed for some dry weather & maybe some winter sun! :SUNsmile: We had a lot of rain here yesterday.

                  Did anyone hear the birds singing this morning? It was lovely here, we had a blackbird on the hedge singing his heart out, the hens were of course joining in! :imphrt:

                  Best I get a move on, I hope you are all well? Enjoy your day. :grphg:

                    Good day to all WW'ers (that's Wakey-Wakers, not Weight Watchers :heehee: )

                    Glad your day was a success @shiney :thumbsup:

                    If you need a hand back at work @Beckie76 let me know and I'll pop over and give you a hand.

                    The birds have barely taken a break this season. Normally they all go very quiet throughout December and it's a sign of better weather when I hear them come February time. I hope they don't decide to breed early because of the mild weather, just in case it turns rather bitter before too long.

                    Healing vibes to all who need them and miles of smiles for all xxMxx

                      Morning all. Getting up for the school run was a bit of a shock to the system yesterday but I'm back on form today I hope. Operation get my dad out of hospital starts today. I have given them six weeks to sort themselves and him out. Have a great day everyone

                          Good Morning everyone,

                          Seems colder this morning but I think it is dry for the time being. Have a lovely day all, stay warm and dry and above all safe and well.
                          God bless.:wub2:

                            Aloha everyone,

                            It's brightening up out there and will be a nice day.

                            I'm getting through the paperwork and am now into the planning some of the rest of the year. The early part is all organised with a number of events appearing to be running smoothly. Ninety people for the annual dinner and dance in January (running the bookings and sorting the menu I've delegated, successfully, to others :phew:). Our annual quiz is now fully booked for February. I've written the quiz and shall be quizmaster this year but have delegated the preparing of the food :biggrin:

                            I've just organised a couple of shorter summer holidays for us that will come after we've recovered from Open Day. Open Day organising and preparation will take up the next few months. The Flamenco dancers and Zara the singer can't make it this year so I'm working on other entertainers - got some tentative offers. No, @Zigs you can't do one of your dances and @ARMANDII you can't do your beggar act with the busking and the sad eyed dog! :lunapic 130165696578242 5:

                            Keep well and have a great day :biggrin:

                            Aloha!
