Good morning :-)



Now on antibiotics - oh what a joy!


What is Christmas?
Helen Steiner Rice

It’s more than a day at the end of the year
More than a season of joy and good cheer –
Christmas is really God’s pattern for living
To be followed all year by unselfish giving.
For in giving to others and in being kind
Man find true joy and peace of mind –
And peace on earth will come to stay
When we live Christmas every day.

Thanks Gwyn - still coughing and spluttering and could do with some more energy, but plodding on. <3

Sorry to read that you have been unwell, Cynthia, but it's good to read that you are on the mend <3
I hope you soon feel much better.

Thank you for all your meaningful posts throughout the year.... always thought -provoking and often amusing too :-)

Good morning and Happy Boxing Day :-)

I've been suffering with the dreaded lurgy for a few days but beginning to feel a lot better now. Hope everyone else is okay. <3


"Let’s use the spirit upon which Boxing Day was founded to remember those that are less fortunate and who also may be in need of some Christmas cheer."

This brings to mind that it is also St. Stephen's Day - the day when Good King Wenceslas set forth to help the needy.

And for those who didn't have any crackers yesterday.......... ??

What happened to the man who stole an Advent Calendar?
He got 25 days!

What is the best Christmas present in the world?
A broken drum, you just can't beat it!

Happy Christmas everyone......... <3



Almighty God,
you have given us your only-begotten Son
to take our nature upon him
and as at this time to be born of a pure virgin:
grant that we, who have been born again
and made your children by adoption and grace,
may daily be renewed by your Holy Spirit;
through Jesus Christ your Son our Lord,
who is alive and reigns with you,
in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
one God, now and for ever. Amen.

We have been in Yorkshire at our son’s since Thursday. At the moment there are 12 of us here and 3 or 4 more are arriving later today. This has made me think of those who don’t have a close, loving family and who may be feeling lonely and unloved and I am praying that they may be given peace and comfort.

I doubt if I will come online tomorrow so I’ll take the opportunity to wish those who post and anyone who looks in a very happy and blessed Christmas <3

Good morning :-)

It's Christmas Eve and the last day of our Advent calendar.

Thank you Vera, I'm glad you're enjoying the calendar and yes, it's bitter cold at the moment. There's a certain magic in frost patterns. Hope everyone is staying safe and warm. <3
