Here's to eventual enlightenment

The danger when people start to believe their own publicity is that they often fall off their own ego.

At least travelling under the guise of the Pa Snip Enterprise gives me an excuse for appearing to be on another planet

Thank you Alan....it may be hard at times but, but there is always something to look forward to, and this being one of them.

Not that i mind the darkness, but it's not that good for growing things. :)
Kind Regards, Old Herbaceous.

Do not put off thanking people when they have helped you, as they may not be there to thank later.

I'm with you Diane! Summer's coming! Hope it's nice & extended like last years, hopefully if Spring plays it's part & arrives correctly then it will be a very short winter.

It always helps if we get up to Christmas without the weather getting too bad.

Best greetings to all of you.
We lit four candles to day, for the fourth Advent Sunday and to welcome the shortening of the nights!

I always count down grey December days down until we reach this point. I know nothing much changes i mediately but it marks an important psychological milestone in the right direction and gives us something to look forward to. Mind you, the worst winter weather is probably yet to come!

Oh thank goodness....the darkest days are behind us, though we won't notice for a month or so. The thought brings feelings of relief and delight to those of us who suffer from S.A.D.
Happy with my lot
