Happy Christmas!

December 20, 2011 by Araminta

“I heard the bells on Christmas Day
Their old, familiar carols play,
And wild and sweet
The words repeat
Of peace on earth, good-will to men!”

- Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

  Merry Christmas, dear Bilby.
  
  I have been away from the mad world of blogs for a long time but I often think about you and Araminta. Smiles!

    What a lovely surprise, Shermeen! I think about you too, and other lovely people who have disappeared from the other place.
    
    Thank you for your Christmas greetings. Very best wishes for the New Year to you and your family. It’s good to see you.

I think WordPress has heightened its security. No worries. i’ve had the same thing on my page.
Renewed Christmas greetings to you both and may 2012 bring you peace, joy and happiness.
And maybe a trip on das Boot…

Good morning Araminta. The link on Brendano’s blog has drawn me here.
I wish you a very happy Christmas and hope you have a great time with your family, especially your grandchild. I too remember that this will be your first Christmas without your dear mum, but then you will have the joy of the new arrival’s company. God bless you.

How lovely to see you, Shermeen, and it is so kind of you to think of us.

Seasons Greetings, and God bless you and your family. It is a blessing that the little one will be here. He’s walking and talking now; he was a bit too young to appreciate it last year!

Do take care; keep in touch, and my best wishes to you for a happy and peaceful New Year.

I’d better return to my cooking now!

I tell you what, Araminta.

You stop making mischief on my blogs and I’ll leave yours alone.

Hello Badger.

I’ve just rescued your comment from spam, and I’m somewhat confused.

What are you on about?

You publish posts addressed to me and you tell me to back off? How bizarre. I was under the impression that MyT is a public site, of which I am a member.

You can always of course ignore me, that is an option. I’m quite good at ignoring people, but just occasionally I feel you seem to be at a bit of a loss, so I communicate. It may not be what you want but tough.

PS. Respect, dear chap is a two way street, and I see precious little from you!
