We have a 🌲 planted way down mother in-laws garden from years and years ago. If inclined one could climb it. It must be at least forty feet high now. Hard to think it once stood in our house.

Well that's almost all of my Christmas wrapping done.

If your rubbish at wrapping as I am, a little tip, try and buy gifts that come in boxes :thumbup:

Hope she like her red brick :D

Not yet. I’m hoping they’ll use a dark brown stain and do the garage side door all over.

I ain't been out since last Wednesday but I'm wondering whether they've been round and glued me door so I can't get out.

Wet out but mild here again. Currently 10deg.

Christmas morning will be a bit of a shocker though. 0deg first thing up until 9am feeling like -5 :o . The rest of the day won’t be much better with a high of 3deg feeling like -1.

Time to get the woolly vest out.

Time for you to light the wood burner instead of just looking at it 😉

We light it every evening. :thumbup:

Hope they don’t get banned. I’ve got a whole beech tree trunk logged up waiting to be cut up into smaller logs. Anyway, we only burn it at night so no one will ever know ;)
