Title: The Year turns.
Post by: Richard on December 21, 2017, 10:30:19 AM

Solstice today, the light grows and the darkness shortens.

We brought a tree in and put lights on it to celebrate.  I shall crack open a Barley Wine too.

Before you know it we'll be moaning about the heat.

Yipee, somebody throw an extra log on the fire!

The only thing I really like about Xmas, is that once the dust settles its the middle of January, then February is a short month and then it's spring!  ;D

And then... by the end of March your bank balance will have recovered back to it's usual minus quantity, only to start, in August, it's steady decline towards December & January again.....,.

I informed my bank manager in no uncertain terms  that any more nonsense from him and I'd take my overdraft elsewhere....

pip pip
& happy Christmas & new year to all you bleeders oops... readers  ;D

Days getting longer, no work for 11 days, dago red flowing , tagine in the oven, classic FM on just below the level that'll annoy next door, nothing on the to-do list until Wednesday except buying a Pork pie. All going pretty well IMHO.
