    Morning all :)

    Going to be a quiet/slow day here today, after quite a busy couple of days past. Weather is a bit on the grey side, but then it is almost the end of November and only a few days until we get the decorations and lights up for Christmas. And on the even brighter side, it is less than a month until the daylight hours start to get longer again.

    The next few days looks like it is going to be all about lights for me - need to go through all the Christmas lights, untangling, testing and repairing as I go; got a new slim pre-lit Christmas tree to replace our big one (no space for it with the current room layout) and need to fix the under-cupboard lights in the kitchen so we can see better when we are working on our main work surface.

    Have a lovely day everyone and stay warm :)

          I've done a load of leaf blowing today but haven't picked them up. Maybe I should do it :scratch:. On the other hand, maybe I won't :snorky:

              I did pick up a wheelie bin full but gave up after that as Sarafi decided to roll around in the leaves as I was gathering them together. My admonitions started with 'don't do that!' to unprintable - as time went by :snorky:

                            It's a bit bulky and will get quite heavy when the bag is full of leaves. No good for a wrinkly like me :old:
