I've been writing Christmas cards, half done but I'm not going to have enough for everyone!

I have deliberately shortened my list this year. Every year we send so many yet get very few or even a thank you. I don't give to receive but when we put so much thought and effort into buying and writing it is just nice to get a thank you.

Freude schoner Gotterfunken. (Bright spark of Divinity) Is that like Croydon? (never having been there, myself. it being, like, a few thousand miles away.)

You can never tell with these foreign accents. And you colonials have a harder time.

Here's another performance, from Chicago.

One uni taxi run done.... They came home in their pj's, next one to collect tomorrow... But I suspect the washing machine is going to ask for overtime to get through the pile!

Nice to have them home for Christmas.
Mr. K is collecting Miss K on Monday, then I expect to see more than double the usual amount of washing. She and her housemates have been struggling to get their own washing dry and the local laundrette is expensive.

Yes the opportunity to get mum to wash everything was just too tempting!

I must see this fabled Croydon.
Schiller knew all the good spots.

There still is an airport but it's small. It was used during WWII and I believe it was the London airport for a while.

EDIT: No, I was wrong, the airport closed in 1959.

I bought some dried limes this morning.

We appear to have been raided by the phantom teaspoon nicker, I went to the cutlery drawer earlier on and we only had a couple of teaspoons there, we used to have a dozen or more.

I've studied this phenomenon. They bury themselves under vegetable peelings and attempt to escape via the bin.

Where the Spanish Civil War started.
Major Pollard and Captain Bebb flew from Croydon to the Canary Islands, where they picked up Generalissimo Franco, and took him to Morocco to link up with the Spanish Aftrican Army. The Spanish never suspected a British aircraft.
