I thought it might be an idea to have one thread where we can all pass on our Christmas wishes to each other. I'll start if that's ok?

Firstly I would like to wish all the very best to the people who make this forum work, you all do a great job often with not enough thanks so have the best Christmas possible.

Secondly I would like to say a huge thank you to those who impart their specialist knowledge you all do a great job so I hope you all have the best possible Christmas.

And then to all of you who take part in the discussions here on Scope I hope you also have a great Christmas.

Cheers
Woodbine

    My very best wishes to you all. I agree; each & every person that joins in is what makes this a great community to belong to. As we all know, this hasn't been a great year, but the one positive I would say is that the community has been not only resilient, but has become stronger through sharing. So, to you all; the Scope team & all members, have a great Christmas. :)

    Merry Christmas to everyone! It has indeed been a very strange year but there's light at the end of that very long tunnel, i'm sure. Lets hope for a much better 2021!
    I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.
    If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help.

    It may not be the Christmas we all wanted but we have to deal with it. Make the most of what you have and enjoy it to the full as best you can. My wishes go out to all of you and to those that will no doubt find it harder and colder than ones before,

    Well who would believe it but its almost Christmas Eve, I know its going to be a difficult time for many people and those who will be on there own are in my thoughts, remember if you want a chat someone will be here over Christmas so feel free to join us.
    To those of you who are in tier 4 and those about to go into tier 4 lets hope that it's not for too long.
    Being positive I know that next year will be better than this, that we can and will beat this virus and next year we can all have a proper Christmas.
    Take care, stay safe and be ready for 2021

    It feels a bit odd that Christmas Eve has come along already! It goes without saying that it's been a challenging year, but I feel like we've had some great moments here on the community. After all, who can forget the virtual birthday party, the times where folks sneakily tried to count as high as possible without one of the community team noticing, or @WestHam06's fantastic footy competition?
    We also welcomed two new arrivals, @poppy123456's first grandchild and @Ami2301's little avenger!

    I know Christmas promises to be very different for many this year, but it's been great seeing such community Christmas spirit.
    Merry Christmas everyone!

    I agree with @Adrian_Scope that there have been some great moments on the community this year and I feel really privileged to have been able to feel a small part of them. :) I hope everyone has the best Christmas they possibly can.

    Hi all! I just wanted to pop on to wish you all a merry Christmas for tomorrow if you're celebrating :)

    It's certainly been a challenging year, but joining Scope and getting to know you all a bit better has definitely been my 2020 highlight. 

    I'll be here on Boxing Day to chat to you all about what you've been up to, and hopefully carry some of the festive fun through to the New Year!
