Christmas is coming …
… there’s frost on the Hedgehog Holly …
We’ll receive wonderful wrapped presents …
… we hope they’ll all be special GARDENING GIFTS
Santa needs to know …
… Have you been good ? … or …
… have you been NAUGHTY ?
If you’ve been good …
… you’ll receive a new garden fork and daisy grubber :o)
… but if you’ve been naughty …
… could be you’ll get a second-hand dish-brush :o(
…………………………………………………………..
Pretty package with ribbons …
If you’ve been good …
… you’ll get gorgeous green gardening gloves :o)
… but if you’ve been naughty …
… they might be mouldy old plastic gloves :o(
…………………………………………………………….
No peeping until Christmas …
If you’ve been good …
… lots of lovely seeds to sow in your garden :o)
… but if you’ve been naughty …
… scratchy pan scourers :o(
…………………………………………………………….
A present wrapped in festive paper …
If you’ve been good …
… special non-stick ratchet pruners :o)
… but if you’ve been naughty …
… the wooden spoon :o(((
………………………………………………………………
Hoping Santa will be kind to you all …
Merry Christmas everyone :o)

Merry Christmas TT Conker Truffle and Crocus :o)) xxx
Wasn't it kind of Truffle to stand in for the 'naughty' photos. He must have known how difficult it was for you to find someone appropriate ;o)
15 Dec, 2010
Merry Christmas to you and yours, Terra! Great blog, once again... I always smile :o)
15 Dec, 2010
Thanks everyone for your lovely comments...
I've added a picture of Crocus my special budgie ...
... as some of you know, he has been rather poorly these past couple of weeks, and I've been worried about his health, but I'm hoping he'll perk up in time for Christmas :o)
Sticki and Yorks ... gift-wrapped pan scourers are currently on their way to you ... you can both now leave the naughty step ;o) xxx
Hi Paul ... yes, I have two of the Hedgehog Hollies ... very pretty in all seasons ... xxx
Thank you Sue... Crocus sends you a special chirrup ... xxx
Thanks ... Mavis, Elsiemay, Tulsalady, SBgirl, Littlelegs and KarenSusan ... I'm pleased you enjoyed my blog ... :o) xxx
Sixpence... I reckon you've been naughty AND good ... you deserve both types of gloves ... Lol. xxx
Pamg ... Conker and Crocus have been VERY good ...
... but I must admit the handle of the wooden spoon now has teeth-marks ;o) xxx
Happy Christmas Amy ... there's no doubt that you've been exceptionally good :o))) xxx ...
... and Beattie ... yes ... garden vouchers ... great idea ! xxx
Thanks Holly, Bloomer, Linda, Maureen, Grandmage, Angela, Islander, and Janey ... there seem to be lots of requests for wooden spoons...Lol. :o) xxx
Tony ... Conker loves that Father Christmas ... I don't think he'll give it to you ... ;o) xxx
Thanks Neena for your kind words, and I'm glad it will be such a special Christmas for you ... xxx
Hello Hywel ... yes, after countless auditions, Truffle was first choice for the "naughty" photos.... Lol. xxx
Thank you, Pip... keep smiling :o) xxx
15 Dec, 2010
Love your budgie, he is the same colour as ours! (before he met his demise) :~(
15 Dec, 2010
thank you for letting me off the naughty step Tt, I don't know how long it will last,
15 Dec, 2010
Hi Grandmage ...
Maybe you can find a pic of your budgie to put on GoY ?
Yorks ... go back on the naughty step ...
... for insubordination ... not acceptable behaviour ...Lol. ;o)
15 Dec, 2010
Hi TT will look and see, think maybe though it was before we went digital!!!
15 Dec, 2010
You're right, Tt. Yorkshire still needs to be on the naughty step along with Sticki, for cheating in my 'quiz'. :-((
Thanks for the cheery photos and message. I do hope that Crocus feels better soon.
I also hope you all have a happy time together at Christmas. :-0)))) Poor Truffle - a special stroke for him - I bet he's good most of the time really! LOL.

Oh BARBARA how could you say such a thing, cheating, I am absolutely HEARTBROKEN, and TT insubordination, Oh my Christmas has been ruined, I don't know what Sticki will say, we can't help it if we think alike, what will people think of us, will never be able to show ourselves on GOY again, sob sob sob.
15 Dec, 2010
Hello Barbara ... I'm pleased you like the photos... my dogs have great fun in front of the camera ... both dogs would like to be in ALL of the pictures ..Lol.
Yes, I'm hoping Crocus perks up and feels better ...

15 Dec, 2010
I don't believe that Truffle has it in him to be naughty, boys are always good!!!
Please Tt, don't make him do the dishes at Christmas!
15 Dec, 2010
Hi Paul...
Truffle has volunteered to LICK all the Christmas dishes...
mmmm... custard ... :o)))
15 Dec, 2010
See, he is a good boy. Told you, no such thing as a bad BOY!!
15 Dec, 2010

Spritz ~ i didnt cheat.
15 Dec, 2010
Hi everyone, I have just joint grows on you today and must say how much I have enjoyed my first day here and how much I have enjoyed reading blogs, I am so pleased I have found this site, My name is Valeria and I live in England, I do look forward to finding my way around this site and making new friends, thank you.
15 Dec, 2010
What ?? How strange,as I know a VALERIE who is from England,and lives over the hill from me...!!!
15 Dec, 2010
I only just moved to England and I don't live near you, I don't know who are are, and my name is Valeria not Valerie,you got me muddled up with some one else, these things do happen,
15 Dec, 2010
Ok,Valeria,whatever...sorry,but was just going to thank you for the lovely christmas card..but I won't bother...seeing as I have got the wrong person..!!
15 Dec, 2010
I'm in cognito, don't give me away
15 Dec, 2010
mmm very cloak and dagger...I won't tell a soul,your secret is safe with me,Valeria...:o)) by the way,I'm in Huddersfield,and don't know where Cognito is..sounds a bit Mexican,or Italian to me..
15 Dec, 2010
Welcome to Goy Valeria, and welcome to England. Where have you moved from, Looneyland. LOL. :o))
15 Dec, 2010
I have not moved from Looneyland Llegs, but thank you for your welcome, I have never heard of Huddersfield, I have moved here from Christmas Island, it was to cold there for me so moved to warmer climate, I now live just between Scotland and Cornwall,
15 Dec, 2010
a very warm welcome valerararraraia cognito [are you sure this is a name and not a disease?]
i hope you like it on GoY
just a little warning that some people [well 1 actually] sometimes cheat on the quizzes but dont worry cos the rest dont
all my screen has gone dark green ~ it must be something you brought from christmas island??
15 Dec, 2010
thank you for your warm welcome, and the warning regarding cheats, I say if one cannot play fairly then one should not play at all, you always get one that tries to spoil things, my screen is also green, must have caught something off you, no that is not my name, I told you I am in cognito,
15 Dec, 2010
perhaps you would like to do a blog with some of your travels from christmas island ~ i would be very interested to read this and to see the pictures.
15 Dec, 2010
given time I will but I am extremely busy with the run up to christmas at the moment.
15 Dec, 2010
Oh poor Truffle, he's ended up with all the grot presents! Millie feels so sorry for him - she says she is willing to share her toys with him (as long as he doesn't touch!). Lovely photo of Crocus but I notice he hasn't any presents either. Poppy would like to send him an egg or two - sitting on 5 for so long is very uncomfortable :)
Great blog, TT, it made me laugh :)
15 Dec, 2010
Hello incognitofromchristmasisland or is it lalaland
Its all this christmas pressure ( thats what the postoffice call it) whatever it is its getting pretty grim Ivote to find the sherry( or whatever) and open the christmas chocs.. its the only cure.....
15 Dec, 2010
HaHa, I found the chocolates and a btle whisky. medicinal purpose only of course. lalalal
15 Dec, 2010
I thought I was having another senior moment-- thankfully I read that Crocus's photo had been added --Phew!
I thought I'd caught Incognito's lala
15 Dec, 2010
single malt my dear and lindor chocs of course.....
15 Dec, 2010
Hi Gee ...
Thanks.. I'm pleased you like the blog :o)
Truffle will do a swap with Millie... dish-brush for one of your gardening shoes ? pan scourer for a shredded envelope ?
Crocus has his stocking hanging up for Santa... so I reckon on Christmas morning, he'll get lots of millet ... because he's been a VERY good budgie all year...:o)))
Conker says he'd like a few of Poppy's moulted feathers for one of his collages ... he'll swap for an egg box ... designed for six eggs... five and a spare ;o)
15 Dec, 2010
hmmm! valahalararea, as you have only just joined this site you may not know that any photos you put on must be your own ~ you are not allowed to any others.
well, im sure everyone will be looking forward to seeing your wonderful island home!
15 Dec, 2010
Ssssh, TT, don't tell everyone Millie has turned into a bit of a delinquent! I keep telling her that Father Christmas won't call but my grandchildren have decided that this is going to be her first 'real' Christmas and they have bought her loads :)
15 Dec, 2010
Must admit I would be feeling the same as your grandchildren, Gee ... wanting to give Millie an extra-special first Christmas... she'll have a field day with all that wrapping paper :o)))
15 Dec, 2010
Definitely NO parcels under the Christmas tree before Christmas, TT, toooooo risky :)
15 Dec, 2010
..Lol... with Truffle around ...
no parcels below work-top height !
Can't wait to hear how Millie decides to redesign your Christmas tree...:o)))
15 Dec, 2010
great blog TT & lovely photos as usual..i hope you paid your models the going rate as they did a grand job for you..
Happy Christmas to you & yours..:o))
15 Dec, 2010

16 Dec, 2010
Happy Christmas Cristina, to you and yours :o) x
16 Dec, 2010
Well, I think I've been good, so insisted that Santa give me my pressy in advance, lol!!! A nice new camera for taking plant and birdie pics!!!!! Poor Truffle, having to display all the naughty rewards - but he looks so good with it! Conker looking adorable, as ever. So nice to see Crocus joining in, too. Merry Cgristmas to you all, from us! XXXX
16 Dec, 2010
So that's me for the mouldy rubber gloves and the pot scourers then. Lovely pics TT.
17 Dec, 2010
Hi David...
you must have been very well-behaved for Santa to buy you a camera ... lovely !!!
... Merry Christmas to you, J and E ... xxxxx
Thanks, Bob ...
mouldy gloves and pan scourers now gift-wrapped on on their way to you ...
... but I'm sure Sylvia has been VERY good ;o)
17 Dec, 2010
Ah! That's only her opinion TT. Merry Christmas to you all, Conker, Truffle and Crocus, all looking very handsome. I look forward to the pan scoures and gloves could be useful if I EVER have to wash up.
17 Dec, 2010
Lol. Merry Christmas Bob, Sylvia and sleepy Mrs. Tommy ...
I hope Santa brings Mrs. Tommy lots of lovely yellow flowers .. :o)
love from TT, Conker, Truffle and Crocus ...
17 Dec, 2010
Great pictures TT, I've been good honest:-))) like the look of the pruners, Fudge hasn't been so good though he's already had the christmas tree over searching for chocolate decorations,lol, gave himself away, his head was covered in glitter, did the same thing last year I certainly wouldn't be silly enough to put them on again.
Hope you Conker, Truffle and Crocus have a great christmas xx
17 Dec, 2010
Hi Kathy...
ooh... naughty Fudge ...Lol...
I'm sure you've been good though... maybe Santa will bring you some special pruners :o)
Have a lovely Christmas ...
... TT, Conker, Truffle and Crocus xxx
17 Dec, 2010
Hello Homebird ...
I'm pleased this blog gave you a giggle ...
I bet you've been VERY good all year ... Lol ...
... have a wonderful Christmas :o) x
18 Dec, 2010
TT...you've done it again! An original and funny blog...your pooches are so co-operative and they really enjoy "helping" you with your photos. I'm sure Santa will be filling their stockings to the brim! I hope Crocus is fit and well for the Christmas celebrations and enjoys his extra treat of millet.
Have a lovey Christmas....hope all your wishes and dreams come true :) x
18 Dec, 2010
Hi Whistonlass ...
It is so LOVELY to have you back on GoY ...
... we missed you very much ...
Yes, I'm very delighted that Crocus budgie has perked up.
For a couple of weeks I was very concerned about his health ...
For these blog photos, Conker and Truffle were acting "in character" ... Lol ... so not difficult for them ... he he he ...
Millet and bonios are both the ideal shape to fit nicely into Christmas stockings, so we are all set here...
I hope you all have a wonderful time ...
... including your four grandchildren ... :o))) xxx
18 Dec, 2010
Wonderful TT, I can see the Oscars now..Best Actor Conker, Best Supporting Actor (under rated award) Truffle, best director Crocus, best filmaker Terratoonie!! Thanks for providing some of the best pics and blogs I have ever enjoyed!
