Very soon another grandchild. Mind you I think he / she may be very expensive later.

Forgot to thank Gransnet for "Dog Loves Counting."It is a lovely book and reminds me of my daughter's favourite book when she was young called "Dogger".She still remembers it and wants to get it for her own daughter.Thanks Gransnet.

Glad to hear that you get so many free but great gifts everyone! Books from GN sounds so exciting! smilewink Galen we are here, annodomini have given a great advice!! Good jokes can make us smile we are not in a high mood, I have tried jokes, it does work! Well,
Yesterday I get a box of free Dove chocolates when I take part in the sweepstakes held by my colleagues, while everyone who attended the activity would get a piece of litle gift to reward our hard work.
And today I get a free but friendly invitation to pick strawberry planted in the greenhouse from our neighbor (though it is a little far from the place I dwell, I would have a visit), you see, spring is on the way, guess it is a great time to find ourselves great chances to get close to nature. smile
Have a great time everyone! smilewink

What better company could you have, Galen? What we need is some good jokes. Are you there, Greatnan? Oh, it's bed time in NZ!

Galen Fri 15-Mar-13 10:21:40

A stinking cold from DGD! I'm staying in bed today with only you people for company!

A big hug and kiss from DGS1 when visiting my DD yesterday the fact that he was at home being nursed through man flu did not occur to him.

A free book - thankyou Gransnet - has just arrived. 'Dog Loves Counting' looks like a lovely book and will make a perfect gift for my 3 year old newphew smile

A beautiful pink Hellebore from my gorgeous eldest daughter for Mothers day and a free lunch.

A scented candle on the bed when we stayed in a nice hotel this week.

No idea why and as I do not use scented candles at home or away I left it on the dressing table.

A box of wool and knitting needles from freecycle. Which has now been donated onto school for a project they are doing.

Massage for my bad foot from 2 friends (separately!) - I really appreciate their kindness.

A pair of grim tacky "pearl" earrings as a free gift when I sent off for other things from Radio Times!
