Christmas is coming!

Having survived a Christmas Sleepover with a full Christmas Dinner cooked in a kitchen with NO roasting tins or dishes (thank goodness for tin foil) and done most of my Christmas shopping I feel I have Christmas under control. It is our last Guide meeting this week and we will continue to do Christmas craft including a very brave attempt to teach knitting.

I have also got Carol Services to look forward to with Trefoil Guilds, schools, Divisions and others.

The one thing I am behind with is Christmas cards - I am having some printed and waiting with bated breath to see if they need to be rebranded "New Year" cards. I have plans for how to get them written and posted with minimal delay involving excel spreadsheets, printed labels and lots of family participation.

Yesterday, we held our first commissioners reception which went well. I discovered that the bag packing last weekend went very well - it looks like we could have raised a few thousand pounds - at least £2000 we already know about. We also have a logo now for the Water project (No, it does not have a toilet on it!).

I am in Edinburgh tonight so aiming to catch up with some paperwork. On Friday I am vsiting the venue for our strategy day so things are going along nicely.
