 Goodness Shelley! I'm even more confused now! My understanding about deccies was that they should be taken down BEFORE Twelfth Night, that being the deadline. In our defence, our green bin collection is tomorrow and they will take the tree for recycling. I'm not going to say whether I think that should be 5th or 6th - think I'll sit on the fence there!  |

That's interesting Shelley... Hadn't thought about it, but I guess that makes sense. After all, we've still got the continuation of that one given that the Jewish Shabbat starts when it gets dark on Friday and lasts until it gets dark on Saturday... |

Afternoon all. Nothing much planned for today, did a bit of clearing up this morning. Going to have our roast beef later which we were meant to have yesterday, looking forward to it. Not sure what to do with the leftovers, might make a cottage pie or freeze it to use another time. Sorry to hear about the robins angie  I hate it when they get the birds... |

In our family we've always honoured the Feast of the Epiphany on 6th January as the date to remove all the decorations, not sure if that's 11th, 12th or 13th Night now! |

Hi, all. Thaw is over, sunny, brisk wind, minus 2 (28 F) now, wind chill minus 8! I've ordered enough groceries so that I can avoid going out in the cold as much as possible during the really bitter weather. I normally like to get out of the house several times a week, but am feeling the cold much more ,,, getting old!! So a lie in and pottering plus a bit of tidying up is about all I've done..... Will stay neutral about Twelfth Night; thought it was the 6th. Poor Pip, he's just doing what he's designed to do: catch small prey. I don't like them to catch birds but can't get too upset about it..... nice to have the tree and decs down and get back to normal. Monday's no-cook day in my house: bacon, scrambled eggs and salad for dinner tonight. Hope all the poorly people are feeling a bit better, and sneezing pusses! |

Mmmmm... I guess that we got ours by being off since the 25th right through to today. People welcome to have more time off, just need to use their AL to do so... I decided against this... |

Evening all Back to work today. Having sausage beans and chips tonight and looking forward to that. Not much going on other than my dinner.......... Shame about the birds Angie does he wear a bell, mind you Oz wore a collar with Bell when he was younger and still caught them..... SOrry to hear about the dog fight too. But I think a lot of birds will come off worse againsta JR low to the ground and a decent bite on them too. Maybe the pup overstepped his boundaries, but its unusual for an adult dog to "fight with a pup" Its lots of bluster and noise, and unnerving though. . |

I'm so sad about those robins. Yes, Pip does wear a bell but because he loses his collar so often, he's gone through the 3 extra noisy bells I bought, so I need to get some more of those. |
