Today everything we...Good evening Sandra everyone, <br />Today everything went well, left John to have his treatment and took myself into Sutton for an hour. His disturbed night had been because he also has Labyrinthitis, he gets dizzy spells and sometimes nausea as well. It exhausts him.<br />Sandra, hope you are able to sort out 6th form for the girls. Our girls stayed on in their Senior School. Tierney has also stayed on (she goes to the same school her Mum and Aunt attended) and our Grandsons in Essex also did the same, at least they know the teachers and staff. Cuts down that settling in problem - as long as the school cover the subjects the girls want to study at 6th form, it can make the transition smoother.<br /><br />It was lovely to see Sheila pop in today, hope her crossing was smooth.<br /><br />May not be in much over the weekend, we are going to Essex. Grandson home from Uni. it was his Birthday this week he is now 20 (where have the years gone?) I still remember cuddling him as a new born. Couldn't do that now. He is 6ft plus. He play's Rugby and has a black belt in Judo. When he cuddles us now it's like a cuddle with Huggie Bear. Love him to bits.<br /><br />Time to say Night Night, hope everyone has a good night, Sleep tight.<br />Love and crafty hugs, Brenda xxxBrenda https://www.blogger.com/profile/14121800821999942200noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8956760013891051450.post-17264040608093205752015-11-27T21:32:32.181+00:002015-11-27T21:32:32.181+00:00Hi Saba, the Christmas market in Nuremberg sound w...Hi Saba, the Christmas market in Nuremberg sound wonderful.

I asked what about the other problems too? I was told Oh bring it back! I have phoned Trading Standards they gave me instructions what to put in a letter and told me to post it by recorded delivery so there was a trace for it. So Curry PC World have now 14 days to respond, so watch this space! Needless to say I an one unhappy duckling at the moment.<br />I do hope the two Graces had a lovely day chatting and a little crafting too just for good measure. I am quite sure it will all work out at school Sandra but the powers that be set the guidelines and they have to be followed unfortunately. It is so frustrating for teachers too especially if they know a directive is wrong. <br />Hazel delighted to know Tammy's puppy is settling so well, it just goes to show what a little patience and care will do and help from mum too, what would they do without us?<br />Who else thinks Saba's market sounds wonderful, oh and all the lovely smells too, divine!<br />Cheryl so pleased you are having a restful day snuggling ou enjoy it.<br />Sheila hope the crossing is smooth and uneventful, safe journey home.<br />Christmas cards are calling so have a lovely evening everyone.<br />Margaret xxxMargaret corgi ownerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07044940577122022288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8956760013891051450.post-31076272095023017232015-11-27T19:39:02.478+00:002015-11-27T19:39:02.478+00:00Oh Saba your market sound absolutely wonderful wh...Oh Saba your market sound absolutely wonderful what a lovely start to the festivities I love markets wish I was coming with you.

Anne your ...Hello Ladies,<br />Sorry I'm late again.<br />Anne your cards are absolutely beautiful, I love how you have used the snowflake border and your little Snow couple are adorable. Beautifully coloured in too. I don't know if you read my comment yesterday, but I managed to get the La Pashe CD on eBay.<br />Norah, Harry is adorable. He has got the most infectious smile, you can't look at him without smiling. You must be so proud and to me he looks very much like his beautiful grandma. <br />I've been into town to try and get started on my Christmas presents. Not very successful though but I did get one or two. It was jam packed. Today is the official opening of the Christkindlesmarkt in Nuremberg. Its beautiful. There are lots of wooden huts which sell traditional Christmas things all made in Germany, mostly hand crafted. At 6pm all the lights go off and the Christkind appears on the balcony of a church in the market square. She wears a golden robe and long blond wig. Everyone falls silent as she reads out a speech and then everyone starts singing Silent night. There are literally thousands of people all packed into the market place and it is very moving. Then all the lights go on in the market huts and it is officially open. There is also Glühwein and Bratwurst. Nuremberg has the most famous Christkindlmarkt and it is shown later on TV. That's where I shall be watching it, I've been a few times but it's just too crowded on the opening day and I prefer to go during the week when it's not packed.<br />Sandra, it's so frustrating for the girls having the exam format changed but I am sure they will be fine. It sounds like they have gone back to the old system which worked well for a lot of years. Hope you enjoyed your day with Pat.<br />Hope you have all had a good day,<br />Love for now<br />Saba xxx<br />Tooth Fairy Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05102182308435269314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8956760013891051450.post-23544691430037577732015-11-27T18:33:17.026+00:002015-11-27T18:33:17.026+00:00Thank you Sheila, have a wonderful time ! xoThank you Sheila, have a wonderful time ! xoNanannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09016663930528165390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8956760013891051450.post-10446859772469725312015-11-27T17:29:42.897+00:002015-11-27T17:29:42.897+00:00Oxford is about an hour away from London so if we&...Oxford is about an hour away from London so if we're not held up should be fine , and then it's about four hours to home, it's a lot of traveling but my friend is 90yrs now so like to see her whenever we can.
