Judging by the absence of slow moving traffic tonight many have already hopped it for their Christmas holidays. I notice the House of Commons has departed for 17 days off (99 days to Brexit!) and the schools are out as many dear sweet children are filling the shops to their parents delight.
I had the pleasure of an early morning trip to Sainsburys, then filling the washing machine for the last wash before Xmas and forgetting to switch it on, having a lunch date cancelled as the other was sick (before Xmas!) and then going to B&M for bird seed (again) and then switching on the machine while ironing the last few shirts, with another now hanging up drying slowly. Does it ever stop I ask?
On top of this I realise the mouse had returned so I was there again shifting furniture and poking steel wool into holes (which he had pushed aside) and hoping to stop his reappearance. I will know tomorrow if I have succeeded or not. It is at times like this you realise how much stuff there is in the house. At least I managed to get the postman and other deliveries when they arrived, unusual for me, and yet another bottle of whisky has been granted me, 'Highland Park,' same as last years. The previous bottle is not yet finished so I am attempting to do so now, this may not be wise, and I am sufficed with a warm glow at the moment in spite of the open window. I believe all my goods have arrived, no more goodies of any worth to come and my wallet is showing signs of wear and tear. Hopefully I need only by things that matter now, meat, milk, bread....

I dont drink whiskey so I had to look up Highland Park as I'd never heard of it, so enjoy it and have a good Christmas.
Dave, It's not bad and I am not one to complain... I hope your Xmas is also a good one.
