That's a very kind thought too Ann but I'd be happy with an emailed card :-) |

No, I know you didn't Island. I was just talking about sending cards (well I was in my head) and thought I send to everyone on the thread but I sadly can't send one to you as I don't have an address. No problem it was just a passing thought. <3 |

Lovely to get a card Island, I will post mine tomorrow, I send early most years but especially this year as it is going to be chaotic with all the strikes. I love getting cards as they brighten up the room. |

I know of a few who have put decorations up early I think it is because we all need cheering up. |

That's thoughtful AnnG and will get them in the festive mood after seeing your decorations. It will be nice for your visitors to see too. I have noticed a few trees starting to go up now. The hairdressers had decorated theirs and one of the restaurants has been decorated for a couple of weeks. |

It sounds like your son's job must be quite stressful Vera. It was same when we went on holiday before OH retired. He would still get phone calls and be checking and dealing with emails while we were away (at least there were no zoom meetings then though!). Travelling with him to offices in places like Liverpool and Wales (I would sightsee or shop!) we would have to park up in laybys on the way while he went through all his new emails and dealt with anything urgent. I don't think a lot of people understand what some jobs are like. Even now he gets calls from his schools well outside working hours. They seem think you are on standby for them 24 hours a day. Technology hasn't helped in some ways. |

Ah yes I recognise it now but did somebody else sing it. I don't think it was ever one of my favourites. |

Maybe if I heard the tune I would recognise it although with a young baby from 1961 we were not really into pop music. |
