Back after an eventful Christmas...

Post: # 137291Post hamster »

The good news: I got engaged over Christmas!

The bad news: We got burgled while we were away over Christmas!

You win some, you lose some, I suppose...

Woo hoo - congratulations!
I hope the burglary didn't take too much shine off the lovely event
Let us be lovely
And let us be kind
Let us be silly and free
It won't make us famous
It won't make us rich
But damn it how happy we'll be!
