snowberry Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 I was wondering what plans, if any, you have arranged for between the Big Day & New Year? I am due to attend a geocaching 'event' at Imber, the 'lost' village on Salisbury Plain. I think there are about 30-40 of us going up from West Cornwall for the day & then heading straight back. We must be bonkers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluekarin Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 I've never been but my parents go to Imber about once a year and they love it. We will be possibly having some of my hubby's online gaming friends over from Sweden and are going to a christening Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bramble Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 Got my mum coming to stay for a few days running up to New Year, we've got a few "girly things" planned (well I have, but she'll enjoy them too!!!) and I'm hoping that if I leave my sewing machine out in a strategic place, she might offer to give me a few lessons on it whilst she's here ...

Daphne Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 We're off on a fabulous holiday, staying in a very nice hotel that we've been to before, with friends, in Austria. Its a combined indulgence because several important things are happening next year for us so this is a massive present to ourselves I plan for lots of tobogganing, bit of skiing, bit of walking, bit of snowshoeing, lots of shrieking, food and gorgeous wine, bits of card playing, as much time as I can get in the spa with all its lovely local mountainous treats and a big gala dinner involving long frocks on NYE Happy Birthday for NYD DM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olly Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 Three days at Ragdale Hall health spa. It was a two-for one offer, I'm going with my sister - although as we'll have spent Christmas together, we might be a bit fed up with each other by then! And then off to Norfolk for New Year with friends. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craftyhunnypie Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 Spending lots of time with my animals. You never know, I might even climb in the pig ark for piggie snuggles. We will probably have a few little trips out along the coast - or even go on the bus for a change. We'll also have a few walks, meals out , do some crafting & relax. Oh there will bit a bit of work to do also. Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lavenders_Blue Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 A mix of eating, relaxing, dog walking, seeing friends and family and hopefully squeezing in some 'me time' for horse riding and chilling out with a good book or 3.

counturchickens Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 Chill out day Boxing Day, then back to work for 2 days.

counturchickens Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 I know! They've just got a bungalow and want to move in January, I did get them small pressies for Xmas, but I'm sure the decorating will be more appreciated! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eggasperated Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 Sorry counturchickens, misunderstanding - I'll be decorating. It's the only time I can hold OH captive from work long enough to get any done . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valkyrie Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 No plans but I know my OH will get ants in his pants if we don't do something. Probably something that I don't want to do, but I'll just grin and bear it - or delegate to DD - she'll love me for the nomination - NOT!

Lesley Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 Like Fred - I'll have a birthday ... and because the family have to do what I want on my birthday we'll go for a walk on the local hills.......and then find somewhere nice for a Hot Choc.
