He finally realised how old and decrepid I am! An electrically heated hot water bottle. And an extra long hot water bottle. A sort of padded memory foam cushion to put between my knees in bed to keep my back and knees in line when lying on my side. And 7 different tins of shortbread biscuits. (I think I might have said sometime ago that you can't go wrong with shortbread biscuits ... ). Only music thingy is a double CD of Merry Hell who ww really enjoyed when we saw them in October in Portugal. Oh and a nice fleecy jumper with a guitar on the front. Next year I guess it will be a mobility scooter, raised toilet seat, walking frame and other mobility aids. Hey ho!! FFJ

I’m including my birthday as often presents are merged but I got chocolate, some whiskies including an excellent one my son found in Edinburgh. He doesn’t drink whisky but asked me what I like, found a specialist shop and told them what I like.
Plus as my birthday was “significant” my Milsom was a birthday gift to myself

Had some Christmas money off Da so I might use it to get my mandolin set up, finally... Tired of it being a no play wall hanger

It may seem hard to believe, but we haven't even started opening presents yet. Sorry, Santa.

Hope to make a start today...
