There's just one more work-day to go before it's Chriiiiistmas! Can't wait - a whole week, to potter around in. I know, I'll be bored by boxing day, but right now - I can't wait!

As for today - look! The sun really is coming back! *g*

Stuck my head around the door of the sometimes-sheepshed where the postie occasionally leaves things, just in case, and found some country life - Landlord's Christmas dinner, perhaps? (under a cut, for townies who prefer their country life to come from Waitrose *g* I like the pics, though, and they are quite English country winter...think Larton, if it helps!)

My Christmas dinner, on the other hand, arrived today from Riverford... *g*

I'm also feeling just about done and ready too - things safely in the post, or decorated, or sitting in the fridge. In celebration I watched Tripod and the Dragon before the Christmas QI, because it always makes me smile. Also, forgot to say the other day, but when I've use my dvd player I remember - I finally ha cked it to region-free, so that I can watch Ladder of Swords and Leaving Normal on my bigger telly-screen, not just my little laptop screen, and my birthday present from my brother (which turned out to be Region 4), The Man from Snowy River. Hurrah! And I don't feel the least bit guilty, cos I've paid for these products over and over again, never mind paying again to match what some big group of corporations decided was another good way to get money out of us, and then forgot about when their next toy came along...

Anyway - that was today... If there's anyone out there, I hope yours was good!

Feeling a bit White-Rabbit-ish, very oh-my-ears-and-whiskers-I'm-late (I owe so many comments, argh! And on some really lovely things, too - especially to you!) because I've been working (very unusually for me) very nearly non-stop since the beginning of the month. As a result of which I seem to be utterly knackered, for some reason, I wonder why :-s.
It's so as to be able to take some time off for a visit from Spawn#1 - who arrives today, hooray!

I do like the look of your feast-in-a-box *g* - I hope it's as tasty as it looks, and that there is something appropriate to wash it down with. I shall definitely raise a glass to you later!

Hold Your Breath, Sunshine
