Mornin n’alln’all

I wonder what adventures await us all today?

Whatever they are, let’s make the most of them!

The other day, OH caught site of a family of about 5 wild boar on our camera trap in the woods next to our house. Rather exciting!
However - the owner was parked next to it yesterday and told us that they’ve been digging up the crops in an adjacent owners field and the mayor has agreed to a one day boar hunt on his land. ( He’s dead against hunting but can only insist on being present at the time)
Not sure if he’s a veggie but he said he won’t be wanting any meat they offer him….and would we like some?…oh YES please!
There ya go….a kindness being passed forward. Glad I did my kind deed yesterday twice fold now
We best eat more space in the freezer!

Milder here too, so it’s a good day to go and bring some more firewood back from our woodyard and stack up our home supply.

Enjoy your day peeps.
Remember to pass on a smile- I’m sure I saw them earlier with what looked like golden tinsel flapping around. Could have been a flash of sunlight mind

Morning all,not got going yet,just waiting for the place to warm up a little,then the bones might want to move and the brain kick in,Nicos what you saw was the smiles on a mass fly about,they flew over here not long ago,seemed to be very excited,have a nice day all

Good morning all.

I think the smiles got an SOS from Santa that he needed some assistance getting his sleigh ready and sobering up the reindeer this year. All seems on schedule however. I just had a peek at the NORAD santa tracker website and it said to come back on the 24th for live tracking.

I think that I might actually wrap some presents today. If I am in the right frame of mind, and have plenty time, it's a job that I really enjoy.

Amazingly, even though I let Mr GF have another couple of my Lindt chocolate balls last night, and scoffed a few myself, there are still a few left in the box.

Off to make more coffee now.

Good morning all...its a mild 12 degs here.
I hope all the peeps who are in pain or suffering have a better day today.

Off to the church shortly.
It's my daughter in laws birthday today so I will be visiting her later.

Have a good day all,

[Nicos]

Happy Birthday to your DIL bramble!

gf….I’m renowned for my utter rubbish pressie wrapping
Invariably there are cat hairs ( or even lip!) stuck to the torn/ mangled scellotape.
I do tend to manage to cover the whole gift though, which I guess is a bonus

My mom spent hours and hours trying to show me each year when I was younger. Alas mom …sorry about that .

Afternoon all.

I've become a lot more pro-hunting, I'm afraid to say, where boar are concerned. They eat my fruit and veg too. And I'm quite nervous about meeting a boar when I'm out walking the dog or walking up and down the valley (through woodland) to the neighbours in each direction.The idea of meeting five would make me take the car even though it's just a ten-minute walk.

Cloudy here today but not quite as cold. Due to get very chilly and windy again in a few days. Which reminds me, time to get more wood indoors.

Not sure where the smiles might have got that tinsel, Nicos. I hope they've not been raiding someone's tree.

I used to be quite good at wrapping presents but Mr Snoop likes doing it. What with that and not many gifts to wrap, I've rather got out of the habit. That said, I'm not sure I've ever left lip on the sellotape!

Right, better shake a leg. See if I can persuade Missie to come outdoors with me to the woodpile. She's in marauding mode... Terrible.

Have a great rest of the day, everyone.
