Cally, no I think the gastro fairy went to Bateman's Bay for holidays, last I heard...

Noni, so dark christmas is like a chocolate-crackle/white-chrissy hybrid?

ATM I am reading 100 ways to calm the crying, one of the advice there is to 'surround yourself with positive voices'. Thinking about it, you ladies are my positive voices!Thanks so much. I never regret joining BB
Agnes, what a wonderful thing to say, I feel exactly the same way, thank you everyone for making this such a positive place to be!

And a Very Happy Christmas to all the ladies heading off to be with loved ones! Look forwards to hearing your festive highlights!
