Good morning from a grey Surrey. Had a wonderful time yesterday. It was quite mild and no rain for our visit to the Windsor Illuminations. Lovely to be out with the girls.
This morning I am off to brunch with my friends and then I might start wrapping some presents, unless I get distracted by patchwork.
Happy Monday everyone and stay safe xx

Good morning all from a dull and cloudy Norfolk but reasonably pleasant outside 11C. Need to put all my stuff away today but will see if the local care home would like some of the shawls, scarves and hats for their residents. I really need to cut down on my numbers or stop knitting and the latter will not happen. Nothing else planned for the day so will, of course, carry on knitting. Have a good day, stay safe. xx
I'm sure the residents will love your donations.

Gosh, that must be chilly, lying in that snow!!! xxxx
Husky sled dogs do it all the time. They dig a hole in the snow and wrap their tails over their nose.
It's probably warmer laying on the snow than standing in the wind.

He was right about that card being special. But he could do something else special. It HAS been 50 years.

I woke up hearing a snow plow go through before I could open my eyes... yes the dreaded snow is back!
And so is my herd.. snoozing at the end of the driveway. Counted seventeen, some are hiding behind the bushes. xoxox

Awesome. That looks like a healthy herd. They do look comfortable there.
Your yard looks like mine should.

That must mean the keys are the same, like they are for John Deere tractors? I took the wrong coat home from work one time, finding the poor owners car keys in the pocket. The poor girl was stranded and stressed after a long night shift... I felt bad. 
I once opened a duplicate car to mine with my remote. I jumped into the driver's seat then realized it was the wrong car and popped back out and locked it again with my remote. That's not supposed to happen.

That was good of the train. Here they would stick everyone on a bus when the train is cancelled.
Our Christmas plans have all been cancelled due to the omicron. We will probably do a porch visit to share a cup of coffee or tea, but we won't be gathering all together until the weather is warm and we can all be together safely outside. So we will have Christmas in July (probably with barbequed turkey
)Enjoy your Christmas lunch.

I know exactly how you feel about covid, just when you think it might be a bit safe to venture out in comes a new variant and new restrictions being brought in. The way this one is spreading so fast I can see trouble ahead. xx
Our epidemiologist expert says it won't be over until everyone in the world can be vaccinated. He predicted another 2 years.
We are still waiting approval for our plant based vaccine. Canada has already said that all the product will be going out of the country because we have enough vaccine in freezers for every one here.

I may have said this before but have you thought about selling on KP? xxxx

The keys on that bike (1992) could lock the ignition or you could turn the bike off and on without a key if it was not locked. That day neither of the guys locked their bikes. Now the ignitions are the same, but you have to have a fob on you to start the bike even if it is unlocked.

And when that yarn runs out, you can always order more and have it delivered. The one delivery that never seems to fail is yarn.

Morning. Hoping you get your chore accomplished. Lovely to receive the cards, but a chore to write them.
Mum just finished with her cards. She puts letters and pictures in her envelopes and they cost $5 to post because they are overweight.
My aunt in Iowa won't get her's until at least a week after Christmas. I'm sure she'll enjoy the letter and pictures.
