One Study to Rule Them...

I'm living in the library at the moment. I look like Gollum. My eyes are tired, I'm all gray and sickly and I keep seeing hobbits (they may be first years with hairy feet or ug boots I dunno at this stage)...and I won't even tell you about my precious....ah ye gods all I'm waiting for now is Gandalf to appear and shout, 'Thou Shall Not Pass!' in my ear. I swear he'd get some sword to the face...

Santa's little helper

Got a wee santa teddy for my nephew, left it in the shed, tidied away till it gets closer to Christmas. I went in to get it today. no where to be seen...next thing I spot the end of a blonde tail disappearing round the corner. Called out for the hound, he ignored me, then I catch a glimpse of a red/white mess in the dark recesses of his kennel...santa came away pretty uncathed but the bauble at the end of his hat was gone...chewed off..for the next ten minutes I'm running around outside in gale force winds chasing the dog around the garden trying to get santa's bauble back...tis the season...
