    @66Mustang I'm working while 4 and its my nephews 16th birthday so I'll be speaking to him later (/having him grunt down the phone at me).  I can't believe how quickly he's grown up  :o

    I hope your post doesn't arrive too late!

    Hope you have a good day after yesterday evening @66Mustang :)
    I'm still waiting for the plumber to hopefully find my gas leak. Typing here with cold fingers! He was supposed to be here 8.45am today, so am not a happy bunny. :(

    @chiarieds Oh heck, that's no good :(  Have a nice warm drink!  I hope the plumber arrives soon.

    Yuck, so I just checked Argos for stock of the Xbox Series X and they're out of stock! Eh? They got new stock yesterday! I know the demand is ridiculously high but come on!

    I think it's probably because of everyone buying things in the Black Friday sales @MrAllen1976 :o, and the demand is very high as you say. Sorry that you weren't able to get one. Do you know when they might restock?

    I'd never heard of that so I just looked it up @Eliz31abeth. It looks really cool! I'm glad it quietens your racing thoughts too. If you have any pictures please do upload them to our KaleidoScope thread if you want :) You might get some inspiration there too.

    How is everyone doing on this quite nippy day?  Does anyone have any exciting plans?

    I might begin to wrap some presents after work just so I can say I've made a start :)

    Might pop down to the Flat later and bring my Xbox back here so I can play Cyber Punk 2077, and take my Xbox Series S back there for now until I can get a Series X next year.

    Euromillions is £175 Million again tonight, might pop in the Co Op and buy some tickets.

    @Cher_Scope good luck :) I don’t have any plans for today but I hope to get out for a drive if I can.

    @MrAllen1976 Wow £175 million is an obscene amount to win. Good luck.

    @66Mustang Enjoy the drive if you do!

    @MrAllen1976 I might have a flutter if that's up for grabs.

    What would you do with £175 million @MrAllen1976 @Cher_Scope? :o That's a heck of a lot.

    If I won £175 million I’d help out my family and then spend many years helping out local charities, what fun. I’d definitely buy a new car and a detached house but I wouldn’t spend much on those things.

    @Tori_Scope Put some in a trust fund for my Nephew and Niece that they can't have till they're 18, explore various World Countries such as Australia and the US (Are Aussie women really as hot as some of the ones in the Soaps?) and attend various Comic Cons such as San Diego and New York, also if fans are allowed at the event, attend next year's WWE Wrestle Mania.

    I'd also make a large donation to the NAS (National Autistic Society UK) and also the Alzheimer's Society.

    I'd obviously donate some to Scope :) , buy a house, a small tropical island and pay for a private Will Young concert.  Nothing too flash you see :D 

    Good work @janer1967 I didn't make a start on my wrapping.  I need some of your mojo!  

    How you all doing today?

    I am OK today, I’ve been out for a drive, making sure to do some dual carriageway (the A1) and then I’ve been bored so I’ve just opened my first beer. Quite early for it but it is the weekend... :)

    What about you?

    It’s been quite a dark day here today so the heating is on and I’m feeling quite ? sleepy . Good to be in the warm though.
