A post regulars have been waiting for, I can confirm he as been.
No photos of "he's been" I'm afraid but I can confirm he as done North Derbyshire.

Is this another GTS post?
Normal is getting dressed in clothes that you buy for work and driving through traffic in a
car that you are still paying for - in order to get to the job you need to pay for the clothes
and the car, and the house you leave vacant all day so you can afford to live in it.

Believing in Santa is one thing, but GTS?

Now Christmas can start.
Certain traditions must be upheld.

Jon, I've just been telling the missus it's not Christmas officially until you've posted pics 
Is your camera broken ?

Love is like a snowmobile, speeding across the frozen tundra.
Which suddenly flips, pinning you underneath.
At night the ice-weasels come...

If I told you the story of this evening you would understand why no pics.
We lost the father in law during the summer of this year, rather than have mum in law home alone the Mrs fetched her over around 6pm to stay the night
and tomorrow.
As they where getting out the car the mum in laws dog slipped the lead and off she went, I thought they where a long time coming in I was busy getting
plates our ready for the Chinese they had bought with them.
Went out to see mum in law at gate Mrs no where to be seen, trotted off spotted dog running down middle of road, (A617 main feeder to M1) to cut a
long chase short £178 vets bill and one put to sleep dog.
Could have been worse had someone swerved to miss the dog and hit another car maybe ? Don't know what our thoughts/feelings would have been.
Somehow tomorrow have to make Christmas Christmas for an 8 year old amongst all this, wish me luck.

Good luck - I'm sure you'll muddle through with flair. Had similar just over 2 years ago when the mother-in-law passed away on the eve of
my daughter's 9th birthday....difficult times

Funny thing that, he lives in northern Canada, yet he gets there before us, and his summer home is 1 km down the road from my house.

If it looks wrong it probably is wrong.

I'm sure the Fin's would have something to say if they heard ..... perhaps going on strike for a year or two for deliveries to North
America. Without the Fin's help Santa would have to cave in and that would be that.
Jon - sorry to hear your news. Hopefully you can find a way to have some cheer this Christmas.
