Preparations are coming along nicely

The Chistmas markets open in Manchester this coming weekend....
and it is still only November!!!!!!!

In other news....

1. I have a horrible cold and it took me nearly TWO HOURS to get home from work so I am having a (self)pity party.

2. #1boy had a phone call from an agency who want to put his cv forward for an engineering job. He was so pleased he went upstairs to take the call and forgot about the sausages under the grill.

3. The whole house smells of burnt sausages and I had to deep clean the top oven/grill when I got home from work.

4. #2boy was knocked out in the first round of the FIFA championship. He was playing in the 6th game so went to the bar and had three pints while he was waiting. He lost because he was drunk!!!!!

5. Pat (who has been friends with #2boy since primary school) won.
Well done Pat.
Pat was NOT drunk. :-)
