Your TicTacToe Challenge Cards

Good Sunday Morning Ladies,

I can hardly believe that we are now in November, we have 7 weeks and 5 days to Christmas, although I have to say that I am struggling to get excited with everything else going on, it truly shocked me when I heard that the estimated 85.000 deaths they had predicted for Winter would be exceeded, that's just unbelievable.  But then you saw them interviewing people in Nottingham about being locked down, you can see why we have the problems we do, one chap said that he was frustrated that the pub and Betting shop were closed in Notts so he travelled over the border to Derbyshire to use theirs, thats exactly why we have the problems we do!  Why don't people understand, then you have people that think its all a government conspiracy, for what??? What do they think they would get out of making this whole thing up??  Does this frustrate any of you?? I mean I understand that people are entitled to their own opinion but I just don't get it!  Rant over, Soap Box not stowed, I left it out as I am sure that one of you will want to use it !!!

Now let's lighten the mood, bring cheer to our hearts and smiles to our faces............
