[Mi-Amigo]

Thank you @MI5 and @Cleoriff 

So we all now know what`s on your wishlists to Santa this year 

[MI5]

She has been on mine for a number of years, along with Nigella, Baby Spice, Oti Mabuse and Emma Watson, but alas, I am too naughty

[Cleoriff]

Well I would wish for JD first and Brad a close second...but as I'll get neither, I'll stick with Ray (who is NOT happy I had the smart meter shoved in the porch in his absence...)

[pgn]

Incoming, @Mi-Amigo --->

[jonsie]

very interesting questions @Mi-Amigo which I hope to get round to later

Well you could have shoved it somewhere else

Apparently I'm the only one round here without a smart meter so I can look forward to getting one sometime in 2021...
