Temperature seems to have dropped today - it's chilly! Have duly battled with the duvet and put the winter weight one on the bed and managed to resist the urge to collapse underneath it afterwards...
'Tis the time of year when I start getting organised for the rapidly looming festive season. Christmas Cake is in the oven, cherries are soaking in brandy, chicken liver pate made and stuck in freezer and present list started! Christmas cards were smugly finished by Easter this year :P
I think I shall be chosing presents from www.oxfamunwrapped.com again this year - it was a resounding success for last Christmas and no one gets stuck with clutter that they didn't want. Plus I get the warm fuzzies knowing that 200 trees, a goat and children's textbooks are out there, where they're most needed, working their magic because of little old me.
