    Picking the mumma up and bringing her down to mine, taking her to church in the PM, haven't been for like 25 years, then ply her with booze after that.

    cooking for her for the first time on Xmas day, no pressure

    Still, I am sure it will be fine

    Xmas is about your family, that's good enough for me.

    Happy Christmas fellow Lifers

    1. Get up at Five to try and write an article in the two hours before the kids wake up
    2. Kids wake up at 5.05 to completely ruin that idea.

    All on track so far :-(

    Up, made breakfast, got to go and grab the final bits of food shopping, get my haircut.

    Take the boys later to the Christmas House on Hayes Lane, the eldest wants to then go to a Carol Service.

    Wrap up final presents later and then start to enjoy it all!

    Her name is Scarlett rose , thank you sadie thats a very kind thought,


    The poor little thing has suffered with urine infections from a very young age, this one has really hurt her, they found she had a dilated kidney on a scan yesterday and they have found the bug that's hurting her so a change in medicine and the pain should ease in 48 hrs or so,


    Then off the the blinding great ormond street to sort the kidney problem or find out where the blockage is and we will be on the homeward stretch

    She will be out tonight but back on boxing day unless I can convince them to leave it till the evening or the day after


    Not as simple as we first hoped and she has a bit further to go than just changing anti biotics



    Not ideal but satisfactory enough for now

    This is exactly how the day panned out. Found 3 dead mice. Not a very good Christmas for them!
