Just thought would let everybody know I am sick of Cooking - and sick of wrapping presents - who invented Christmas - no do not answer that - have got sellotape everywhere - and presents climbing up to the ceiling and I have got to deliver them yet - cheer me up - say something nice - jennifer

Jennifer, Had a nasty cold (1st present from my little grand-daughter) - Haven't started Christmas yet !!! Started to write the Chrissy cards but gave up coz I sneezed too much. I THINK Christmas is on Sunday but not quite sure!! ALL my prezzies yet to buy - Don't feel like doing anything!!! Does that make YOU feel any better??? Dea Xxx

Jennifer, Dea, you sound like another couple of volunteers for Olde Crone's party. Tina

Thanks Tina, Can you pick me up on your way through the Midlands?? Dea xxx P.S. - I will be there in spirit if not in body!!! - Mine's a 'large' brandy. Ta very much, Dea x

I've done presents for husband and children, but have not yet bought for in-laws or mother. I've done no food shopping, though husband has bought crackers and beer!!! No cards that need posting have been written yet. I am chillin!

What's all the panic? Shops don't close until Saturday tea time and a lot are open again on Boxing Day. How much food does one family actually need for one day???? Jay

I have Thursday off - housework and final shopping - Friday off - HAIRDRESSERS - then at work every day until 31st December, then four days off - back for two - then leave - start new job Monday after - hip hip hooray - no more cooking for fifty -going back to care - yippee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Anyone need a chefs job - mine is going begging -????????????????????

No Panic whatsoever Janet. There is a WHOLE week left yet. Nomatter what happens - come Christmas Day it will all work out allright - it always does. !!!!!!!!!.. I don't yet know how but it WILL. Have faith, Dea x

Hope you all have a very merry Christmas and a Mad New Year, boxing day, just another day, work as usual, but hey! finish at 2.30 p.m. time to hit the shops, I can hear my husband groan!!!!!!!!!!!! spend some of this money I will be earning by working all Christmas-no seriously-I work in a Care Home and if I do not cook them a special Christmas Dinner - who will? then after that Son and daughter in law putting the works on - it ain't all bad - MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYBODY - HOPE OLD CRONE'S PARTY is a smash hit - love Jennifer i
