To wake up on Christmas morning to discover that I have a beautiful singing voice. The ability to sing would bring me joy.

A climbing rose. My DML is buying it for me and I can't wait to see the result next summer. We are so pleased to have such a wonderful family joining our family.

I already have my Christmas present wish - a pair of fleecy slippers with a proper sole, because the kitchen floor is always cold!! So a box of books with my name on would be a fantastic extra treat. Good luck to everyone.flowers

Books are always on my wishlist. This year I have set myself a Reading challenge - to read 52 books this year. I have sponsors and give the read books for a small donation. I am raising the money for a small local charity. Happy Christmas xxx
