I’m with you on that one Carrie! I love Christmas! I just wish it would snow now, it’s foggy here today, not very christmassy, but there’s still time!
So when are you putting up your christams tree? 😀 -
Yay Im not alone :lol1: We are putting the tree up at the weekend, Stephani is so excited already bless her, its the kids that make it more special aswell. There are a few houses locally that have covered their houses with lights and they have been like that since mid November :lol1: When is yours going up Marcella?
I wish it would snow aswell ….. its quite a nice day here, cold but the sun is out …. I shouldnt complain really!
Carrie 😀

Ho, ho, ho – and stuff…
I’ll post a picture of the house later on this afternoon (once the lights have been swithced on) – hopefully that will bring about a bit of Christmas cheer 😀

The tree will go up when I get round to braving it into the loft!!! EVERYTHING is thrown up there! Probably next weekend I would think. I’ve got an 11 year old daughter, Emily, she’ll be keen to put it up! The Advent calender was opened this morning too, although this year she chose a very non christmassy one! A football one! I won’t say which Glasgow team calender is gracing her wall, I’m bound to upset someone!
Although perhaps the fact that it’s an ADVENT calender may give a clue!!!!Marcella.

agree with you Steve. :thumbdown:

Is this what’s known as getting Carrie’d away? 😀
Christmas time is great for the kids, office parties and the wearing of oversized jumpers to make Auntie happy, but I still don’t like it 🙁 I asked Father Christmas for a Lotus last year, I got aftershave… not exactly the same thing 😕
Cheers, Dewi

~Christmas is coming, the goose is getting fat~
….and so will I after I bake all those cookies!
Christmas in America has lost all meaning,
from fighting the madding crowd at Wal-Mart
to the multitude of Christmas lights in every yard, on every house,
to the constant barrage of toy ads on TV, tirning our kids into greedy liitle brats.
I like a quiet Christmas,
not all commercialized.I have 2 kids with December birthdays, so the tree stays down till afterwards.
I don’t feel like going into my attic to dig the decorations out either!
Love….Jill -
Maybe the reason you didn’t get the Lotus Dewi is because you were a naughty boy!!! He’ll cross off his list if you’re bad!

:lol1: :poke:
Marcella is right perhaps it is because you were a bad boy!!?? 😮 :lol1: You probably wont be getting one this year either then 😉 :lol1:

well carrie to be honest i never noticed
-
we got to be talking startreck here carrie
-
:lol1:

We can’t see your ears Carrie! 😕 Maybe you should upload a series of photographs from different angles to display your ‘pointed ears’. This way we could give a reasoned opinion to your similarities to Science Officer Spock or whether you should have had a part as an extra in the Lord of the Rings 😀
Cheers, Dewi
-
You bunch of nutters!!! :lol1:
My hair hides them well dont you think!!?? 😛
Carrie 😀

Here ya go – Merry Christmas
There’s just one more wreath to go up, and that’s on the front door!
Mark

well we all have our problems Carrie …i mean check out my nose …theres rumours it was first used for the prototype for concorde.That picture was taken in Brisbane …..you may think its a bit dull but in reality id managed to block out the sun in Queensland…it made all the papers people were phoning in about a parcial eclipse!!!!
-
:point: Brian your nose looks fine but then again pictures can be decieving 😉
Mark, wow, your house looks great, I especially like the tree, it looks fab!!!! I have just shown my two year old Stephani and her comments were “oooh pretty, thats brilliant” :lol1:
Carrie 😀
-
Blimey Mark! 😮 I hope you’re not on a flight path!!! I was half expecting you to have sprayed the entire house and garden with fake snow after seeing what you did for halloween, but with all those lights, there’ll be no missing your house in a hurry! 😀
Cheers, Dewi
-
Dewi,
Sorry to say were are on not one, but two flight paths – Blackpool and Warton :lol1:
We have toned things down a little this year. For Christmas last year we imported some inflatables from the USA – Santa in a sleigh being pulled by two reindeer and a polar bear wearing a purple jumper, but some of the little snot rags round here decided to use them as bouncy castles so we took them down.
You can see last year’s picture here on the BBC website
So this year there is no low level stuff which is a shame, but I guess not every little darling is an angel.
Please don’t start me off with snow machines – I’d love one, if anybody has one I could borrow for a day or two please let me know 😉
Mark

Mark, I am gonna print out the pic of your house,
and use my magic Hologram projector to shine it on my house!
Then everyone in the neighborhood will think I’ve been real busy.
I’ll also save a fortune on my electric bill.
Love…..Jill -
Hi Jill,
The electric isn’t that bad, from Dec 1st to the 6th Jan the lights will consume approx £18’s worth.
Must hook up the dynamo to the exercise bike – yeah as if :lol1:
Mark
-
that just looks terrific mark!! 😛 😛
great to see you make a big effort 😀
my attempt at lighting my house, is a string of white lights, all along the front 🙄Nik
-
Our household will be lucky to get a christmas tree, let alone any lights 🙄 I could always use some foam board shavings to simulate snow though, might impress Mini me 😀
Cheers, Dewi

You said you’d never tell! 😳 😳 I only did it for the money and like a good boy, I didn’t inhale! 🙄
Nice one though Carrie, but an 18″ tree? :lol1: Ah well, size isn’t everything as small ppl say :lol1: :lol1: :lol1:
Cheers, Dewi

saturday night, im sitting here playing this game while drinking some wine.. and bam, i scared the living daylights out my wee girl with a scream of joy! 😛 YES… i shouted.. then i thought… you sad bugger 😮 :lol1: :lol1: :lol1:

:lol1: :lol1: :lol1: Sad man! :lol1: :lol1: :lol1:
Admittedly I was amazed when I got the 325, but I resisted the urge to scream “YES!!!”, I sort of mumbled “Deserves a beer!” :lol1:
Cheers, Dewi
-
this is frustrating, ive had 343.3…. 3 times now. surely thats not the highest it can go? ide have thought you could have hit the reindeer… 😕
-
Can match it, but I don’t think you can beat it 😕 1 – 0 to Robert and its not even Christmas Day! 😉
Cheers, Dewi
-
Another game to play, nothing at all to do with Christmas but I thought instead of creating a new post just for this I will add it where I put the last game …. Are you getting my drift? 😮 Anyway …….
-
Well, you’ve finally done it! You’ve found a game that I’m absolute pants at! 🙁 Scored a massive 336 after 5 attempts and I bumped the car more often playing as a bloke than as a babe 😕 Must be a bug in the programming I reckon 😳
Gimme something I can swing at, shoot, throw or catch, I’ll be fine. Parking, you only have to look at my car to see how bad I am at that irl! 😳
Cheers, Dewi
-
ouch Im even worse at that parking game than I am at parking in real life!!
and thats saying something!
-
Least it wasn’t a transit van :lol1:
Cheers, Dewi
-
argh dont remind me!
-
I’d do it better if it was a transit…….but I like the game!
Regards

-
Carrie – I got 436 then he self destructed – ooops
Mark
