Good morning N.A.E.T folks .... 
Thank goodness it's only Monday, that gives me more than six days to get ready for next Monday ... 
.. there's a lot to do and the quilting platoon is threatening to "drop in" without warning .. 
, so it's all systems go just in case they do (actually, I hope they do, it will be a most splendid diversion for a few hours)
Hey Jo .. xxxxx .. no, not shifting back to the homeland, just planning on being there for a white christmas and the "Festival of Trees". That's where every store/shop has a christmas tree in the window (and more inside) sparkling with their own chosen theme and prizes are given for those voted to be the best. It's gorgeous and street after street is lit up magnificently. Even walking around in well below zero to look at them is well worth it, I really miss that display. At the same time, it's snowing, a magical scenario.
Speaking of christmas (don't mean to scare anyone at 11 months to go), I'm designing something very different this year and it will take a long time. It means many late nights because it mustn't get it the way of anything serious I have to do during the year. If only there were more hours in the day .. 
Have an excellent week everyone xx
Hope you don't get too snowed under with all the work ahead, Tas hahahahaha
I love the thought of getting 'snowed' under Stawks! ...
