    Back home much sooner than expected, balcony with a cold beer and mosquitos. Miss the mutt as he was always guaranteed to be awake and ready to chat.

    Cheers folks and sorry for being so morbid about it all. It's not like me. But the little thing was so connected to Ms G. El Cato has her place in this small part of the internet now. Some day Ms G may find it. Anyway onwards and upwards. Nearly Christmas.

    Does anyone else think it's quite apt that the Full Moon on Wednesday is called the Cold Moon? With the frosty weather we're due to get 🥶🥶❄️❄️

    Really?! What years are you talking about? You're the same age as my late Uncle and younger then his wife. He was a Rocker ( he stole her from a mod) .

    Our skinny 7.5 foot tree is finally up! 😁🎄🎄

    Okay, it may not be a huge real tree, but space limitations mean that the skinny pop-up tree is perfect for our place.

    First batch of Christmas cards posted off too! 😊👍👍

    Should be some sight if we get the clear skies usually associated with the cold snap.. Keeping our home warm is stressy

    It feels cold enough lately so not looking forward to what's forecast, especially driving in the mornings.

    My cold plan goes into gear tomorrow. How to keep the gaff toasty during icy weather and on a set budget! A couple of years ago it never crossed my mind. Gonna ease back on the fire and concentrate on oil. Emergency committee meeting in the morning. 😱

    My worst fears have materialised. Grumpy finally gets home tomorrow after three months of hospitalisation and it's s the eve of a full moon. Guess who goes nuts the night before a full moon?

    Fascinating. I was maybe peripherally aware but living in rural Lancashire.. The first such scenes were the Beatles.. In that era I was at university etc. Just googled and that scene was South UK... and few even then had TV..

    The moon last night was magnificent. Skyscapes out here are breathtaking. My place is small so easy to keep snug as long as the coal and turf arrive. Solid fuel stove in the main room/kitchen..

    oh dear... When I was living in West Cork an old neighbour went ****** Set fire to the bushed behind the house.. Took the gate off its hinges and left "calling cards" ... Then attacked the dog, an elderly collie. We called the Gardai and they opined it was the full moon,, Said a lot of folk go like that... that they get very busy... Stay safe... thinking of thee.

    Right kids to school, fire lit and then bring the boss to the doctors. Trapped nerve or something in her neck she’s in agony.

    Back in Ireland. Gallivanting over until January, well apart from Thursday night when I head to Belfast to see my favorite band, The Fontaines DC.

    Currently waiting at the bus station to collect my eldest and busting with excitement to see him.

    My mum and dad collected me at the airport today, something they rarely do. Mammy made me her best-in-the-world veggie lasagna and we had a few games of Rummikub.

    I almost forget I hate coming back to Ireland!

    Went for a couple of pints. While rambling home with a Chinese takeaway under the arm on a cold crisp night I had the moon and Christmas lights guiding me.
