    Coffee time, Nespresso in a Starbucks cup, talk about confused. 14 degrees, making the most of this balcony.

    @Elyvande I was watching some show earlier and people were hugging on first meeting with almost always makes me cringe but today I kinda missed the hugs

    After Covid, I don't think I'll ever shake hands again but I do like a hug.

    It's awkward now when you meet a friend or relative that you only see every so often, standing there thinking..Will I give them a squeeze!

    I think I will put up my Christmas tree tonight while I have some motivation, otherwise it might not make an appearance until a late date.

    To thine own self be true

    @Gremlinertia and @Purple Mountain You are both right. It is the “Will I/won’t I hug” dance about. We have a family funeral in the morning and have just been talking about the “No hugging”. This sounds mad but I miss a good funeral - hugs, kisses, tears, a get together to celebrate a life well lived afterwards.

    I wouldn’t blame you for putting up your tree. Enjoy the cosy feeling with the lights on..

    My thoughts exactly, Auto.

    Thus the reason why my mood is pretty low today.

    Are you ready for the Toy Show tonight, that must put all of you in a good mood.

    on the balcony waiting for the sun to rise before I go to bed, morning people shouldn’t be made work at night :):)

    Work.

    Am I the only person in Ireland who has no interest whatsoever in the late late toy show.

    Toys? Nah, no interest

    Billie Barry kids? Nah, no interest

    Overly confident kids lecturing adults on stuff? Or being way over the top? Nah, no interest.

    People look at me like there's something wrong with me when I say it!

    Good morning. Getting ready to head out to the funeral with Mr E.

    From the posts above it seems as though a lot of us are struggling with various things. Slides coffees, hot chocolates and whatever else your hearts desire across and wishing you all a better day ahead.

    Another one here who avoids the Toy Show. My seven year old grandson finds it odd to have it on at adult's time as he calls it.

    He doesn't see the point of it really.

    Another not a toy show fan here . Even when mine were young they thought it was long drawn out , and boring mainly . Although excited granddaughter 6, looking forward to watching it for the first time tonight ...

    Bet she'll be asleep ten minutes after it starts 😁

    Yeah, hands up.. I don't like the Toy Show myself. I'm gone well past the stage of hyper small people, I'm a grouchy old maid these days.

    I surprised myself today, that I have a creative side apparently. I bought a Christmas wreath today and when I brought it home thought it was quite plain.

    I got scissors and wire out and added fake red berries, pine cones and and little wooden hearts to it and it looks totally transformed.

    Move over, @JupiterKid and @Mam of 4

    That IS a bit odd... in fairness I used to look forward to the novelty of staying up but as I remember I’d be fighting off sleep the last 30 minutes of it...

    wouldnt kill them for one week to have it start 30 minutes early even have the 9 news on Rte 2.

    Sofaside, iPad in hand, TV on in the background and just generally chilling after an hour of the Toy Show followed by a late dinner of omelette (ham, onion, mature cheddar) with steamed asparagus to start.

    Absolutely Arctic conditions out there today. The wind would strip the skin from your face! 😨🥶🥶🥶 Keep warm, Wherers... 🤗🔥🔥
