Not all dept are like that.

My daughter had a dental appointment with the consultant which was at 9am, we were seen by consultant and then X rays then back to consultant for diagnosis and plan of treatment, and we're out by 10am.

Daughter was miffed it wasn't half a day off school!🤣🤣🤣

I'm listenig to the radio. Nat King Cole is still roasting his chestnuts on an open fire after all these years. You'd think they'd be burnt to cinders by now.

Just looked up the Tobermory cat on Wikipedia.
There it states that two ginger cats lived at the distillery. This is fiction.
In fact we did have two cats called Muttley and Jacob. Muttley had only one front leg having been caught in a gin trap and lost one leg while Jacob only had one eye following an altercation with another cat.
They sat together on the wall in front of our house on nice days and were much admired by the tourists.
The one eyed cat was called Nelson in the distillery by the ex navy workers we had and both were good working cats as they frequented the distillery and probably got fed there as well as at home.
Neither were ginger tho’ we later had half shares in a ginger cat after we moved house.

I'll verify this on Kittypedia later.

I'd unwrap your present to yourself right now if I were you. You could enjoy the run up to the day with a good device and then simply take pleasure from your children's company seated around the turkey.

there is a problem with that,we are eating the turkey not invoting ot to xmas dinner,it is the xmas dinner.😁

You could always go to your nearest laundromat instead...

I would, but they don't appear to be on tour at the moment

Aaaaaah, and breathe........

Busy afternoon erranding in town. Art shop, Wilko, Aldi (rare for me) and Tesco. Anyways, all the gifts for assorted furry and feathers friends bought, picked up the stuff I couldn't get on Sunday because it was out of stock, picked up some puppy training pads to put down in front of the upstairs litter tray to catch any off target hits and managed to pick up a job lot of sausage rolls and a dressed crab on yellow sticker.

Had a lovely supper of cauliflower soup followed by steamed salmon, spaghetti with homemade basil & walnut pesto and buttered spring greens.

Finally sitting down and chilling out.
