    Too soon! Much too soon!

    I've just received my first Christmas card.

    I haven't even bought any yet, let alone sent them.

    That's OK - being prepared is OK. It's just sending them out this early that I can't understand.

    And in any case, if I send cards out too early I know I will get a card from someone with a change of address in it, and I have to decide whether to send them another one or not!

    I used to send loads of cards but gave up altogether about 3yrs ago, couldn’t see the point anymore of sending them to people who I never seen or heard from for years.

    The problem with Christmas for me is that we do not celebrate it - it is just a normal working day. So while the rest of the internet are celebrating with family it gets very quiet for me.

    You can always talk to me over Christmas Malka. :094: In Hungary they celebrate Christmas on Christmas Eve and they don't have a Boxing Day like they do in the UK. All rather puzzling to me :017::017: because I'm the only one in the village who celebrates on Christmas Day! :rolleyes:

    Well I suppose they have to celebrate Christmas on different days in different countries, because otherwise how would Santa manage to get round everywhere.

    Dunno what you're going on about Malka. What do you mean, there really is a Santa? Course there is - if someone has told you he isn't they're pulling your leg. And if you don't get nuffink from him, it's cos you must have been a naughty girl.

    Yes there's a Santa I always see Santa's helpers in town, because the real Santa is making sure his sleigh is in good working order.

    'n'anycays "p'tata" be de woid fer de sweet fings. Patata be dere name 'ere. De reg'l'r wuns be "tapuah adama" - odd 'cos de woid fer happls be "tapuah etz".

    See "tapuah" means happl an' if u sez "tapuah adama" it be happls in de groun' but if u sez "tapuah etz" it be ona tree, see?

    Will someone contact Tina and tell her to recapture that gnome and keep him under control.

    Kindly remember that I have a tiny little Chihuahua and I dare not let him out into the garden while that gnome is roaming free to commit atrocities.
