Well, if it HAS to be warm I'd rather live close to a beach!

I was suffering with arthritis in my right knee yesterday and it was difficult to get around, but it's a bit warmer outside and the arthritis isn't bothering me so much, despite the rain.

[Margaret, Sherlockian Sheila]

Morning all. Won't be around much today. It's our work's Christmas lunch. Leaving the office at 10.30am... gods know what time I will get home. :D

[Andy]

No exposé's on the copier again please!!! Enjoy

[Margaret, Sherlockian Sheila]

LMAO. We're going to a vineyard. Not a copier to be seen. :D

[Bobby]

The wee wife and I don't get out to movies much....no time with my traveling but we did go see "Creed" last week at a theatre where they brought meals and wine to your seats!! Very cool....and the movie?? We both really liked it and the wee one is not the boxing fan I am, but this film isn't really about boxing. Check it out!! (an aside) It's better if you saw the first Rocky before viewing this one.

P.S. Friday night staff party was really the sort of fun we all love. We had it at our own premises with food ordered in. We had a prize for the best costume - neck up. So simple. Then we had games which were easy but fun. I had a wig with cat woman mask. One lady came as Miss Piggy which was really good. The winner was a Queen. Neferiti look alike.

Problem was, we got a Maxi Taxi to get everyone home safely. Except when we go to our house I fell getting out of the cab. I misjudged the height of the cab in the dark (no, I was not drunk). I ended up on my bum. How I have a support brace on my right knee and by doctors orders, I am supposed to be on crutches which I didn't get as I couldn't think of anything more uncomfortable.

Problem solved, my darling husband turned one of his golf clubs upside down and said "use this". I hate to admit it, but a golf club is the perfect walking stick. I believe he selected the sand wedge (I know nothing about golf) but this stick was the perfect height and the "wedge" fit my hand perfectly. The handle was w rapped in a way that does no damage to our timber floor. I will never get a walking stick. This iron also works as a weapon!

Merry Christmas! Happy Thursday! The weekend's almost here! Happy Holidays! I bought a bottle of wine with a picture of Santa and his reindeer on it back in August. I'm pulling the cork out and having a go at it tonight while the girls are watching the Santa Tracker.

Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas from a very foggy, damp New England!!

We each got one: James Aitcheson's KNIGHT OF THE HAWK (I think... Book 3 of the trilogy)
& I received C.J. Sansom's DISSOLUTION, with recommendations to read the series. I'm looking forward to both!!

[happy]

I'll second the recomendation on Sansom's Shardlake series - excellent read and some decent mysteries along the way :)
