I wrote out all my Christmas card yesterday (about seventy of them). I like to write a short message in each one, and for some (those who live far away that I don't see very often) a little news and update.

I don't suffer from rheumatism or arthritis, but goodness me my handwriting has become a bit wobbly!

I don't drink, so it isn't the DT's.

I had to be extra-careful with the addresses on the envelopes, as they must be legible for the Sorting Office.

My only satisfaction was the nice Christmas stickers (Father Christmas, snowmen, holly, presents etc) I buy a sheet of these and put one on each envelope to cheer them up a bit.

I then started on the Christmas 'boxes' for the postman, binmen (we have three teams of these for the different-coloured bins) and window cleaner. Christmas card and a tenner for each. When I looked at them afterwards, it looked as if I'd written Bunmen, Pistman and Wondow Clooner.
Gawd, I reckon it's nearly time for the care home! :)
