Merry Christmas to one and all

Well it's almost that most wondrous time of the year again.
Now I did have a great post to put here but well if hasn't gone and left the building just now, I guess I should really write them down when I think of them and post THAT day!

To all my friends far and wide, blogger and non-blogger alike Merry Christmas. The following are in no particular order.

To Moogie smile, keep the chin up, it will get better, those angelic children will become angelic once more it will just take a little while, have a great christmas and may you be always able to find the exact thing you need at the moment you need it.

To Barb, dear barb I think your finally there where you've always wanted to be, may birddog continue to serve you well and may midnight and nino finally realize that you love them both in equal measure but in different ways. May you never stop writing on your blog as it's always a pleasure to read even when you ranting about something I can normally see why. May the bean always be perfect

To Melonie may the work you do have continue to have an impact on the lives it crosses and may it reward you in a way you didn't think possible. I hope that all the kids continue to know that you love them all dearly even when they've done something really bad / stupid and they are banish to their room.

To Shy, may things all work out and may your son continue to surprise you in a nice way of course. Keep the faith it's hard going but just keep the faith and know that no matter how many miles away you are, I'm always thinking about you at some point in the day.

To Katt, hmm what can I say other than this dear friend smile, even in the face of adversity smile and keep on smiling, never give up on your ideas people will come round to them it just may take some time.

To Marie, we touched base but once this year and that was enough to keep me smiling fo r the rest of the day, thank you for being a friend and introducing me to erm some "band" called "Snow Patrol" I never can thank you enough for that.

To Jean-Luc, may 2009 be as exciting as 2008 on you blog with all its twists and turns. Oh and try and keep my away from the Klingon Bloodwine and Romulan Ale and keep me away from all Ferengi, lest I remind them of a few of the nastier "Rules of Acquisition".. Live long and prosper.

To my Free-DC team mates, you guys Rock each and everyone of you. Just a few special mentions to Bok - thanks man for letting me loose on the stats and giving me something else to do for the team. I'll keep polishing 'em up I promise. IB, ye old Target Butt you may not understand all this new fangled DB stuff but you still manage to get there in the end. AMDave, those charts of yours get any more shiny and well erm we'll have the #1 slot of DC project stats on the planet, oh wait we already DO :D.. HelixVonSmelix, dude to you major kudos to you and that machine will rock when I get another PSU, the one in my main machine went funny. Also to Team Seti-USA I take my hat of to you guys, I know I don't visit the forum much but I've been busy making the shiny, shinier :)...

To Junebugg, You keep me smiling with your jokes and funny e-mails don't stop sending them, just know that most of them make me crack a smile. Let's hope 2009 is a little less windy in 'bama.

To Hannah, It is amazing how people meet up in blogspace, how close they can end up no matter how far away they are. I do hope everything works out for you next year since we both know this year wasn't very good one for both of us.

To Laura, dear sweet Laura, bet ya though I had forgotten you there didn't ya, not a chance. I know we've both been busy this year and keeping in touch has been some what fragmented I'll try my best to sort that. Smile and give that dear sweet mum of yours a hug from me for simply bringing the world a wonderful, beautiful young lady.

And Finally this list wouldn't be complete without my mentioning my adopted lil sis.
To Jen, I know it hurts, it hurts a lot, I'm now writing this though misty eyes as I remember things. Just know this even although I am not exactly nearby just know I do think about you and your mum, I'm glad I know you, you and Laura are some of a select few who can manage to cheer me up no matter what and I can only try and do the same for you.

So to one and all have a Merry Christmas and remember a smile costs nothing and hugs are on the house.

Hugs to you all.
