If anyone passing Eilleen's shop could pop in and deliver the birth certificate of Annie MOORE, then 2010 could be a Happy New Year for everyone  :-*

When I said the LCM was on in the coming week, my missus said we'd have to go there one year  :o
Today I broke my personal record for most consecutive days alive.

Are you and your maids serving hot mince pies, Eilleen?  If so, then you may see me!  I have a cousin who is insisting on coming up from Berks/Oxfordshire border for the market - I've told her she's mad - must run in the family!  ;D

Geoff  :)

Great Idea that birth certificate, it would feel like all my Christmas's had come at once  ;D

Polly, you bring the mince pie's , I'll stick them in the microwave  :)

We usually only serve up abuse  :D :D :D   Only joking,  it would be great to see you  :)

the only thing is , if any of you do want to pop in the shop and say Hi ,

I shut about 5.00 pm every night , so make sure you come early  :-*  I want no complaint

later .about missing me etc, etc,  :D :D

Start at the first one, and end at the last,

then you'll be ready for more than just a mince pie  :) :)

 :) :) :)

What a pity this offer wasn't on Rootschat 2 years ago.  This was when we had a lovely time at the Market and stayed at the Bailhouse Hotel which I can fully recommend.   Then on our way home, the icing on the cake was visiting my great buddy the lovely Su. What a terrific time we had. 

For the last two years we have been to Manchester Christmas Markets which, again, are truly great. See below

Polly  came to see me  :)  bought me chocolates,  Thank you Polly  :-*
 
I'm now having a day of rest  :) 

The best thing about this years Christmas market was the weather ,

It brought out the best in folk,  they did'nt have to walk round soaked.

I hope that if any Rootchatters came to the market they had a good time  :)

even though only Polly popped in to say hello  ::)
