I've had another wonderfully lazy day, which did include a short (and misguided) trip to Tescos, along with most of the rest of the population of Northampton, it seemed. I've caught up on my LJ reading, and even managed to leave a few comments here and there. Now I'm cooking some tea for E (B has been invited to a sleepover with her friend who lives in the next street) and having a glass of vintage port, before doing some more of the huge giant crossword we've been working on since the Saturday before Christmas. It's got to the stage where I'm going to have to start looking things up in dictionaries, encyclopedias and google. Then there's some dinner to cook for C and myself and a bottle of something fizzy and alcoholic to open (might as well get some of it drunk before we toast the New Year at midnight).

And before I do any of that, I'd like to wish you all a very Happy New Year. I hope that the good bits of 2009 are very good, the not so good bits are made bearable by friends, family and loved ones, and that at least some of your wishes, hopes and dreams come true.

And the same to you, Karen (and MrCee and the boys too). *toasts you with my port*

(and in the spirit of being cheeky, as I love this layout so much and don't want to change it, if I find some icons would you have time/be willing to redo it for me before you start back at work?)*flutters eyelashes winningly* :D

Yes of course! I've revamped mine and I rather like the layout myself :)

Thank you Karen - I found it difficult to make a choice so came up with two selections - one a purely JM one and one with various different icons. They are both in my Scrapbook

I'll leave the choice up to you. :)

Hope you 2009 is a great one for you - May your dreams come true.

I shall pop over for the port, providing the crossword is packed away!

HAPPY NEW YEAR! The evening's plan sounds like a good one. My dad's here right now and we're having nacho chips and dips and other nibbles, and I have a dry martini and lemonade for some reason....bubbly for later. Best wishes to all.

Thank you Deb, and the same to you. Martini and lemonade - haven't had one of those for years. Hope you had a good evening.

I bought the Martini to make my sister laugh and call me a 'pikey' - but I actually really enjoyed it! :)
