without sounding sorry for myself i will be glad to see the New Year in and get rid of December, cos its been a hard month for us. The stress and scurry of Christmas aside we have had the effects of the horrendous weather which ripped all my guttering off,cracked my paths and finally flattened my old back fence. My wifes mother is very poorly with cancer and hasn't been given long to live, mt mother has the dreaded flu and we had to get the poor dog put down....oh and i am working New Years Eve

Apart from that everything is hunky dory

We did have a nice Christmas and the New Year can only improve our fortunes....i hope
