I have been to town to post my Christmas cards, and to buy some more stamps. Dam it's cold here. . Stamps are expensive now. £8.00 for 12. Can't remember the last time i bought some.

Cost of postage is really expensive now. I only tend to post stuff 2nd class also now due to the individual cost.
No birthday cards to post?

Not long back, did my short loop to Hatton, 52 miles, it was a lovely ride, a tad chilly and the breeze was a bit strong, but it was dry and there wasn't much ice about, and it had cleared by the time I came out the cafe

Bloomin cold here and getting colder by the hour.

More info wanted. What are they? Hand made or machine (they look hand made).
My last loaf died. It was a granary. I followed the Panasonic instructions even though the quantities seemed wrong. It did partly rise but was like lead ..... but the birds are enjoying it

Tonight I shall be laying in a ditch in Binley Woods waiting for a SAR dog to find me.

Very cold today with wind but no rain. Played golf (against my better judgement) and was glad when we finished.
Mrs D is out for christmas lunch with friends. I am now sat in conservatory enjoying a whisky.

I usually play golf against an opponent, but I'm old fashioned like that.
