@66Mustang
I always find it sad taking the tree down, but on to a new year let’s hope it’s a good one for all of us.
Are you upto anything today. 😊

66Mustang

That's true @Lou67

We are going to brave the rain and go to Tesco I think.

Morning all, did you all have an enjoyable New Year? 2024 feel any different yet?

Jimm_Alumni

I feel kinda bad now that I missed everyone saying happy new year, next year I'll try to pop in!

Teigr

I've started deChristmassing the house @Lou67,but I won't be taking either of the trees down today.

Albus_Scope

I've just been informed the xmas tree is being taken down today. Boo hiss. 

Rosie_Scope

Taking our tree down tomorrow! I've already de-Christmassed small bits, but the big stuff will all be done tomorrow once everyone's out of the house

Lou67

@Teigr
I do miss the sparkle off the lights once it’s down, I usually wait till the 5th so not sure what’s made me do it today lol 

@Albus_Scope
If I had a big house with a spare room I would leave it up all year 🤭

Teigr

I might take down the sitting room tree tomorrow;we don't spend much time in there,but I will miss switching on the lights on the dining room tree every morning.

Teigr

See you later @Ada,I hope you're having better weather than us.

Afternoon @ada and everyone heavy rain here too @teigr for next 7 hours 

Rosie_Scope

I think there's horrible wet weather almost everywhere today! Nasty stuff. 

Which podcasts are you listening to at the moment @Ada?

66Mustang

Afternoon @Ada how are you?

I just drove to the shop and back in this weather, the motorway had very poor visibility, I was driving at 55-60mph

Sandy_123

I'm not even attempting going out @66Mustang
My son asked me to go for a coffee and I said no, so he sent a pic of a sad face lol. 

66Mustang

@Sandy_123

Ha ha that's nice of him to offer though, if he wants to go out maybe he could go get the coffees and bring them home he would get some brownie points for that I bet

Sandy_123

Now, that I would like.  
My grandson has changed a setting in phone, that flashes a light every time I get notification, so annoying 

66Mustang

I listen to a radio show called Count Arthur Strong every night to get me to sleep.

There are 36 episodes 30 mins long each and I listen to a few each night.

I know them off by heart now, I just love them and keep listening to them again and again  

66Mustang

@Ada yeah I understand that. I find it hard listening to new things in case there is content in there that will trigger my mental health problems, I prefer to just listen to things I have listened to before. Same with TV shows and films. Safer but boring I guess ha ha.
