Noel Edmonds Had Me On My Knees..


....in floods of blubbering tears. Yes I didn't think the man had it in him. On my knees I tell you. I had recorded his Christmas Present t.v. show on SKY (its repeated all through this season) and decided, while finishing off wrapping pressies I'll watch that.

The whole experience of having presents on the floor, me on my knees paper scissors and cello tape everywhere.....very flustering. As the programme unfolded with Noels seasonal do gooding I was in tears. Don't know what the feck I've wrapped and who's getting what. My bah humbug attitude has turned into "Ah I'll add some money to the Xmas cards too!"(I have a thing with money and envelopes you know). While in the process of playing God with family members I've reflected on who in the family have been saints and sinners. OHHH please, how do I shake the Noel Edmonds spell off.

All those adults and kids receiving special gift for heroic acts of bravery such as;ADHD Alzheimer's kid following phone instructions to help his mum before ambulance arrives. The father and son battling cancer or, the woman who's father had a brain hemorrhage she visited every day with a 150 miles daily hospital journey. While still managing to tend to the chickens in her back garden and husband who is due to die any day of a terminal illness. I KID YOU NOT. I'm not going to tell you the surprises they received. You will have to watch it.

Fortunately Laura Lee text me before I crumpled further. The text simply asked"How are you Missus feeling OK". All I can say is bless her. Obviously I tried to keep the text brief and basically text back. Noel Edmonds, I'm a wretch!!! Ha Ha.

To think its only Monday as I ponder the rest of the week ahead for myself and everyone at this time.

This bastard Noel has got me thinking about everyone. I was blubbering when I read Rhia's Xmas message blog yesterday and was so touched by her kind words. There are so many names and thoughts that come to mind as I think about everyone at Xmas. So needless to say folks..... Have a wonderful Xmas. I appreciate many a fight can occur when too much family are together in one room but hopefully it is nothing that needs police or ambulance assistance! For those having pyjama day or on their own...how lucky you are to have such peace and my idea of bliss.

Whatever you all decide to do over Christmas. I send you all my warmest wishes.
