Jen, how am I supposed to drink my cough stuff (in a sherry glass) with you making me fall off my perch like that (cough, cough, giggle, splutter)? DD2, Hannah, believes the 750ml bottles are one person, too - especially as neither DH or I particularly like the stuff! We went out for dinner on Christmas Day (to a fairly local Harvester restaurant - we started going out about three years ago, mainly because then I don't have to spend the morning cooking and DH doesn't have to spend the afternoon washing up!) and then to DD1's for the afternoon and evening - it was GD1's first Christmas and it looks as if she might get the hang of unwrapping presents by the time her birthday comes round next month! She'd had lots of noisy toys, and clothes, and was determined to stay awake as long as possible. I'm doing my normal trick, going down with a cold whilst I haven't got to go to work (it was always the same at school, ill during the holidays!). Lace related presents were a pair of bobbins and one of those circular Moravia (?) brooches that you hang lace on the bars across the centre. Haven't got any lace done, but at least I can now get to my pillow (for those on the Gazette forum, we found the living room carpet on Christmas Eve)! I can't say whether it was definitely Demon (our ISP) with problems yesterday - we didn't have time to put the computer on! But, with the news reports of all the sales, and umpteen million spent in on-line shopping sprees, I'm amazed the lot didn't grind to a halt! -- Jane Partridge To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace-chat [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
