Morning!
Love your 'nonsense' Ann, which of course it isn't. It's topics of conversation that you would share with us if we were in the room with you at the time. But of course we're not, so all the conversation is one sided with no one answering so you think it makes it look like nothing.
I laughed at the CAT a strophic comment about Lucy. lol you chose your words wisely there didn't you Ann.
Can you not borrow a chair to push you in and around the shops Ann? but once you are in the shop and see something you want to look at more closely you could use your stick to get nearer ie beat the christmas shoppers out of the way! . Just kidding lol. If it's something you want then summon Bill to pick it up and pay for it.
I think I shall have a little spell shopping on Sunday as I have just one present left to buy and that is for James who wants a compact digital camera that is simple to operate and will fit into his jeans pocket. I have tried to look for one online but because size is one of the most important features I am going to have to go and see them in the 'flesh' as it were.
I know what you mean about food/treat shopping in advance Ann...we have food monsters that make things disappear from our cupboards as well.
Today is the day I re arrange the lounge and get the christmas decorations up. James said he wants to help decorate the tree so I may leave that bare after I have fit it all together. It is an artificial one (of course, as you don't assemble a real one!) 7' Nordic pine which we have had for about 18 years now. It was £100 and bought from Woollies many years ago and is such an authentic looking thing that is made of three parts. It is so heavy I struggle moving the base never mind all of it together. In between I think I have bought a couple real trees and the year we moved into this house we didn't use it as everything was in storage so I bought a cheaper smaller fully decorated one to put us on as we only moved into the house on the 20th December 2000.
I can't remember if I gave you an update on the compensation claim but basically Robert is going ahead with it as the solicitor answered our queries and put our mind at rest It's going to be a long hard battle but the solicitor is keen and from what I can see he is thorough at his job and won't loosen his teeth from the opposition's bit until he feels Robert has been compensated as fully as possible within monetary allowances.
Anyway I best fly...so many things and so little day. Thanks for asking Ann, my cold is still very much with me but I'm working on round it. A morning in bed with the book I am reading at the moment was tempting but too much to do.
