• Café Life is the Colony's main hangout, watering hole and meeting point.

    This is a place where you'll meet and make writing friends, and indulge in stratospherically-elevated wit or barometrically low humour.

    Some Colonists pop in religiously every day before or after work. Others we see here less regularly, but all are equally welcome. Two important grounds rules…

    • Don't give offence
    • Don't take offence

    We now allow political discussion, but strongly suggest it takes place in the Steam Room, which is a private sub-forum within Café Life. It’s only accessible to Full Members.

Cheers. same back.

I am just going to light a solstice candle with friends to celebrate the shortest day and return of the light. Then drink loads of wine, eat cinnamon buns and get cosy. My fella's kids (they're in their 20s) will probably come over Boxing Day.

Beautiful idea, Ronnie. We're going to greet the new sun tomorrow; burn the dross and then light the Yule log. Of course, this is in between looking after two very busy little granddaughters!
 
Sorry everyone if you hate the tune. Il Matrimonio hates it, and is grizzling that it's given him an ear worm. I tell him he's lucky it's not Rudolph the Red Nose reindeer, but he doesn't seem too sure. Ho ho ho.

It's Ronny.
 
I put this up every year because I love it so much.

I LOVE the Piano guys (I think I say this every time you post this, lol). I love this Carol of the Bells
Merry Christmas all! Zoomed the Dean of Canterbury yesterday, he’s a lovely chap:

Gorgeously Christmassy report :) :glowing-star:
