I hope your doughnuts didn't come from a recipe by Mrs Craddock Maggi, because you know what they turned out like! ;)

Indeed, Anthony-  they did not, and I do..... and I will be VERY annoyed if you explain this to anyone, other than in a private message, should they request it  :-[

A very merry Christmas and a happy and prosperous New Year to all Form friends across the world. What a wonderful institution this Forum is.

Thanks to Ian, Maggi and Fred for continuing to spend their time making it so. Thanks as ever to Ian for the time he freely spends making the Bulb Log the best resource on the Internet, and thanks too to Paul for his time and commitment to the Wisley Log-great stuff.

We're told that 2009 will be a difficult and painful year but with so many marvellous friends, flowers and the magnificent Forum, how can that possibly be?

To the Moderators and Administrator and everyone who posts and lurks, I wish you all a very Merry Christmas and the happiest of New Years

With love to all,
Lesley

Best wishes for Christmas and Hannukah to all on the Forum,
As I'm about to take a break from work it'll also be from the computer!
So unless I get a chance before then,
A happy New year to all!

He is not looking particularly pleased at being photographed, Fermi.  Not pleased at all.  :-\

Anthony,

I can picture you glued to the screen watching the progress of Santa ever westwards until he reached bonny Scotland. Get to bed early and be good!

Merry Silly Season from Australia, where it is currently (for me at least) 6:42 on Christmas morning.

Have a great one everyone!  And a brilliant New Year.  8)
Cheers.
