A really HUGE thankyou!

Thanks phoenix I know that it is not all smelling of roses with you at present. Enjoy yourself tomorrow and look after your poorly cat.

phoenix you have an amazing capacity to send good wishes to all and the gift to look on the bright side of life (cue song). It has not been the easiest year for yourself but you always manage to say the right thing to other Gransnetters who are experiencing tough times. I hope you have a very happy and peaceful Christmas and New Year.

I hope 2014 brings a change for the good in every way for you Phoenix, best wishes for Christmas Day

Merry Christmas Phoenix to you and Mr P and here's is to a fantastic 2014, its booked to be your year.

Wishing all Gnetter's a wonderful Christmas and a Happy New Yearxx

Been in my thoughts a lot lately. Yes, let's hope your poorly cat gets better soon- and that your heart may be lighter in 2014.

Joyeux Noël et Bonne Année 2014

Phoenix I knew as soon as I saw the title of the thread it was you
It's us who should be thanking you for all the humour, kindness and generosity of spirit that you bring to Gransnet.
I hope you and MrP enjoy tomorrow, and that 2014 brings you good fortune.
xx

Yes, phoenix I second everything that's already been said. Things must improve for you soon, you deserve some good luck.

I wish you everything you wish yourself, and may 2014 be the year it happens for you both.

phoenix may I also add my best wishes to you for a happy Christmas and for 2014 to be the year when things start to take a turn for the better for you

me too

Phoenix I can only echo what everyone else wishes for you. May things start to go in your favour after the difficult year you've faced, and I hope you don't have any vet calls to upset things, either.

phoenix What a lovely thread as always the master of words,something that never comes to me naturally sometimes.
Wishing you and Mr.P. very best wishes for to-morrow & a fruitful 2014.

As glamma says, phoenix you are the master of words.

2014 will be your year!

You bloody awful lot, you've made me cry now!

Away with you, surely you have stuffing to make and veg to prepare!

I have just taken a moment from the kitchen, giving a swede the boil of it's life (bad memories of "the swede that wouldn't die") and listening to the service from Kings on the radio, one of my personal Christmas traditions. That's enough on it's own to make me well up, without you lot being so damn lovely!

A Christmas "humph" to you all, accompanied by a bit of a sniff and nose blowing. It's the onions, of course, any fool knows that..........

I'm also listening to the service from Kings, love it - me, the big atheist!

A Happy Christmas to you and Mr P, phoenix and a really happy, prosperous and successful 2014. You deserve it.

I have been listening to the Kings college carol service while cleaning windows. I will not be descended upon for christmas before friday so limited food to prepare now.
May all have a peaceful time and be happy.

I want to add a big thank you all round to everyone on Gransnet for your friendship.

Good wishes to you Phoenix.

Happy Christmas Phoenix, give you poorly cat a little kiss from me, and may your 2014 be happy and fulfilled. God bless you. And God bless all the Gransnetter that read this. You lovely lot.

Best wishes for tomorrow Phoenix, and wishing you a MUCH BETTER 2014, hope it will be your year ...you're a very kind postive person and deserve a break.

I hope everyone enjoys the next few days in the best way they are able, and find contentment and peace. x

Have a wonderful day phoenix and I wish you a fantastic 2014 xxxxx

All the very best Phoenix. Because you're worth it

Our Pudding is a very old girl, 15 or more, and sends her very best Christmas wishes to your dear cat. She's got her nose out of joint as our daughter's little dog, Slinky the 13 year old dachs, has been sleeping by my bed whilst his 'mum' was in the UK for 10 days- she'll be so happy tonight that she can jump on my or OH's bed tonight and have us to herself Bless her white paws.

Happy Christmas phoenix I think I get more pleasure from your posts than anyone else's. Hope your cat is getting better - I was at the vet yesterday with our 16 year old, seems to be a relatively minor problem and we should get through Christmas all right.

It's been a c**p year for so many this last year. Only the wonderful summer weather being a redeeming feature. 2014 has a good ring to it. Happy Christmas everyone and a wonderful new year.
