01:57 pm: With love, Overnighter
Even though our lives have moved on, we share a bond that can't be easily severed. The news of the death of one of our community, someone I laughed with and shared RL time with, as well as loved her (sometimes hilariously shocking) fics, who gave up much of her last few years to care for her family, has saddened and upset me. Rest in Peace dear overnighter.

10:34 pm: A giant FAIL from Fox News.....
http://www.investigativeproject.org/4730/emerson-with-judge-pirro-no-go-islamic-zones#

With reporting and 'experts' like this, no wonder the tour guide on my trip round Savannah in 2008 had to have me shout from the back of the bus at him when he announced that there were entire cities in the UK that were Muslim and operated under Shariah law! *shakes head in despair at such ignorance*

04:39 pm: Merry Chrismukkah!
Merry Chrismukkah to all my flist! Drop by here and have a festive virtual mince pie and glass of mulled wine. Say Hi to other flisters and tell us all what you are up to...



Mrmel, mastermel, missmel and myself will be joined by brothermel and have quite a quiet time after mrmel has finished his last work duty at approximately 12 noon on Christmas Day. The last few days have been manic as usual. Every year I promise myself I'll be more organised but it never seems to happen. Plus two of the family are sick and therefore no help :(.

I have watched the first episode of Gotham and quite enjoyed it , though it's not really my choice of genre and I haven't been enthused enough to watch any more. And BMc is looking his age, and, dare I say it, rather boring?

It seems an age since Cheeks, Em and Silver met earlier in the summer and haven't seen El at all I don't think.

I'm working officially 3 days a week, but end up doing more like 4 or 5, but I love where I'm working, and my colleagues are such fun. The kids are needier than in my previous school, but that suits me, as I feel I can make a difference.

I miss the flist, but seriously wonder where I found all the time to chat. post and write!

Anyway, Seasons Greetings to all. Stop a while and chat...

01:38 pm: Mulled Wine and Mince Pie Evening!
It's a long time since my flist were in contact on a regular basis so I figured it would be nice to invite everyone to "drop in" to a virtual festive event! In England we hold many a mince pie and mulled wine evening in the lead up to Christmas so I've decided to host one on LJ and hopefully get the chance to say Hi to long absent flisters and wish you all "Happy Chrismukkah" ...

02:37 pm: The OC

I just have to catch a snatch of Coldplay's Fix You and there's drunk Kiki, broke Cal and Ryan brooding over Trey and suddenly all is right in my world....

06:41 pm: St Jude

My hatches are battened and the rabbit is inside for the night. The chickens will have to fend for themselves but should be fully protected in their borrowed Egglu (thanks Cheeks). Nothing to do now except snuggle in front of Downton and await the wind and rain.
