This is my third Christmas without my husband and I was really thrown by the fact that I missed him much more than in previous years. I think the initial shock of his sudden passing is wearing off. I have three sons and three lovely grandchildren - but without "my bloke" it seemed very very empty and lonely this year. 
ohh yes lol lo ohh that's a good one nannieroz yes Falcon where is she hiding, 
we can fill her in as soon as. nannieroz that is good, I once went to a "Virtual Themes Party" couple of 
at my desktop, when I woke up next morning I almost felt like I had actualy been! to a party lol, it's a bit like a good book, you can become embroiled in it 
and yes I believe Galen is spot on with bow and arrow
well goodnight all, off to my freshly made bed....
mcem hello, not sure if you are an old (cough) original poster but nice to see you...
Oh yes I am sure there's going to be a ball (amongst other things) 
I shall have a mooch at the "Christmas Party Thread" and relive the moments
I must now put my "party head away as I am getting too excited and wait for Galan to send out the invites..open to all I'm sure ..whooohooo......(whoops sorry party head emerged again) tut!
I suppose we should let the thread ease back to it's original theme, as goodness knows what any "new widows" may think if they were to drop in! they will wonder what on earths going on but hope anyone would be able to have a little smile whilst reading the thread.
Until then I shall keep my ears and eyes open for the "announcement" Iv got my party frock ready and now going to do my homework on the theme .... whilst sipping my 
bikergran it is so good to see you getting some way to being your old jokey self again. I am sure you do all your grieving just the same and will for a long time but you are doing yourself (and others) some good by joining in with such good fun topics 
I'm still trying to get the red wine stains out of the armchair after bikergran's post last evening about her knees and matches
DH thought I'd had a choking fit because he'd said something about the Election
Wonderfully crazy ladies on this thread!
mcem thankyou and yes you put it better than me ! but yes that was the point I was trying to make and didn't want/hope that it was detracting from the original post which was Falcons
annsixty yes you are so right, in fact I spent most of the afternoon yesterday in my "other mode" with my mind so heavy on this time last when everything was sort of ticking along not too bad, and then "wham"! we didn't know what was coming, well we did, but! you know!
loopylou it was me that nearly had a fit! I misread the post about the "armchair" I thought well!!! I don't remember sitting in an armchair rubbing my knees together 
then re read the post and realised you meant your! armchair lol
anno ohh yes the Halloween party lol I have a photo on my profile of me at Pendle Hill! hope your coming along to the party anno would love you to meet "Randolph or was it Rudolph must re trace my post and a have a look
Wondering where Falcon is !
You may not have been in a state to remember the Halloween party, biker!
I'm here ladies. I've been planning my clothes for the big event.
Got a long dress, and a long pointy hat with a veil at the back. I was wondering about Chasity Belts which were all the rage in Medieval times but then I remembered we are all mums and Grans so definitely won't be needed.
I'm not sure whether or not to pack the big foam hand you sent me Biker. I think it might squash down.
Who's going to get this party started. I think I read somewhere that Galen was in charge.
Falcon thank goodness your ok..last we heard you were looking for Rick Wakeman on youtube... we thought you may have absconded with him and enticed him to this party! under your long frock!!
and chastity belts! you speak for yourself !!! some loose women going to this party won't mention any names 
Oh glad the Hand arrived, nannier got hers as well, hope you have both tested it as there was a faulty batch!
Yes Galen is in charge, think she went off to the print the invites and sharpen her arrows. I'm pretty sure she will open a thread on the forum for all.
Hey!! Ladies I have been having a look at this Tintergel place!! it looks fan daby dozy...have a google, you know we have a bit of a journey to Cornwall! so take plenty of supplies.I'v decided to have a sidecar fitted tomorrow, so I have room for two more passengers (first come first serve) no squabbling now! in fact if ones sits on anothers knee we could fit 4 in the sidecar
We would have to take the back country roads in case the country police were there, but if we come across any of them, I have plenty of Duck Tape, we will tape them to a tree, leave them some Magic Mushrooms and they will be none the wiser,, must remember to set them free on the way back
Running true to form, I see, biker.
It's the "Vimto" anno goodnight all
bump as requested
already packed with my supplies (still having trouble finding any matches though! could be crucial)
I'm in too (please). Don't worry biker, I'll bring the matches........ don't want your knees to ignite!!!!!
ohh nannier lol
