The girls have gone home.....

...both Kate and Emma are back at work tomorrow.  Charlotte has spent a peaceful, snoozy afternoon curled up in her chair recovering from FRIDAY night, she is obviously way too old to stand the pace. 
     Took the girls into town to catch their buses this morning and had a couple of hours to wander round town, didn't need anything just had a wander, it wasn't particulaly busy but there was so many lovely presents and trimmings around.  Went into Debenhams and although there was some nice things for sale it was obvious that the shop hadn't been cleaned from the previous day!  The floors were dirty, lots of rubbish and fluff rolling around and discarded cans, coffee cups and papers discarded on the display stands!  Down to Selfridges and the difference was very obvious, it was all clean and tidy as well as been bright and cheerful to look around. I wished I could buy my own Christmas presents this year, there was so many things I liked.
     Spent the afternoon sorting papers in the family room, the filing cabinet is overflowing onto the floor.  We now have 3 bags of shreded paper ready to go to recycle, so we have made a good start.
