It's snowing here in Bristol and settling. Nothing was forecast for snow. I am off to the Peak District soon and am hoping for snow up there over the Christmas period. Cannot wait for a nice, relaxing break with my husband, son and son's godparents. Everyone say, awwww, I have a Boxing Day birthday. Husband and son buys me separate presents (they have been warned) but family always gave me joint birthday and christmas presents - usually pyjamas and slippers. My Aunt Minnie always gave me 2/6p for my birthday so I could buy a book. |

Well Fred, Have you been to PC World? Top of the list to get your computer back is buy them one for Christmas - budget allowing. Our son procrastinated (is that the word) that he couldn't get online with the old PC we had given him. Daddy (with bottomless pocket - as our son believes) provides son with cheap laptop within 24 hours. Cheeky little monkey he is, he decides to ask Dad for a few?? quid within 48 hours - he got it too!! From what I can work out Dad has paid for son's presents to us, family and his friends too. Would like to know how our son gets away with it as I have to beg for a few bob more. |

Dear Christine The Ladybird books are the range I used to buy. I thought they were great until siblings kicked in and wrote/ruined all of them. Got my revenge and bought our son all of the 'Classics' range when he was about 3 years old. Husband now reads them when he hasn't got a library book out. |

Yes and also have snow along the road in Zummerzet. Melting in the roads now though. We are whizzing down to Dorset to clear our caravan for the winter, so hope there's no ice on the roads! See you all tonight, Mandy :) |
