Morning, Dull n Dark here this morning with drizzle, but at least it's shortest day and the healing starts again tomorrow, working back to light evenings.
Just pluttering about the house today, walked dog earlier and after lunch may have a snooze..

Re: Over 50's Club Scotland (part 3)

Good morning everybody. Dry here at the moment. Went into town yesterday for a few things, and it wasn't to bad. Still have to put the cards up and a few more decorations. Thanks May for the welcome back, don't think I'll be going anywhere soon.

Morning, Very foggy here today I had to put the flashing light collar on the dog or I'd have lost him. Not sign of it lifting either so I guess we've got it for the day. House clean for me this afternoon as I've been lazing too much last week.
Have a nice day everyone..

That's a devil of a Santa Roxy

Here's Our wee annual Christmas poem,

A Scottish Fairy

I am a wee little fairy
On tap o’ the Christmas tree
It’s no’ a job I fancy
Well how would you like tae be me

A' tarted up wi’ tinsel
It’s enough to mak ye boak
An a couple of jaggy branches
Rammed up the back o’ your frock.

An these wee lights a’ roon me
I canna get my sleep
An’ there’s the yearly visit
Fae Santa – big fat creep.

On Christmas Day I’m stuck up here
While you’re a' wiring in
An’ naebody says, Hey you up there
Could you go a slug o’gin?

The Christmas Tree’s a bonny sight
As the firelight softly flickers
But think o’ me – I’m stuck up here
Wi’ needles in my knickers.

Good evening everybody. Was out early today taking presents to my friends. Got a few more presents whe I was out and I'm finished. May love your wee poem about the fairy. My poor fairy only has one wing but I've had her to long to throw her out.

Re: Over 50's Club Scotland (part 3)

A great poem, May!

Thanks Mags,but I can't take the credit for it and I don't know who the Author is,but They have a fab' sense of humour whoever They are/were.

Re: Over 50's Club Scotland (part 3)

My curiosity prompted me to check this out, as usual. The link below may throw some light on who the author is, seems it's been posted a lot in various places on the internet:

Clicking on the link at the base of the above page may perhaps be of interest to those in Scotland as it's to do with a group specialising in Gaelic work songs.
