I'm trying so hard to get into the festive spirit but so far its not happening, by now I've usually got the tree up and all my cards done.

Well I'm off to make a coffee and take some painkillers. May be back with a card but its doubtful with the light being truly pants today lol. Stay warm everyone. xxx
