H C I t Christmas Crackers in 1843
Happy Christmas I t Christmas Cards in 1843

Henry Cole invented the Christmas Card in 1843 ....?
Mandy's not around to confirm.

John Callcott Horsley invented the Christmas card in 1843 can't be him

According to wiki, John C Horsley designed for sale the first Christmas Card in 1843, but Henry Cole was a prominent innovator of Christmas Cards in the 1880's ....?

How are you today? hope all is well

C was Invented by W K in the year 1906

Sandy on the news tonight it said we are going to have 35C tomorrow so another hot day ahead. Today was 29 and the first time we have not had to have the aircon on for a change. I have had all the doors and windows open it is so nice to have fresh air going through the house. I did some housework this morning. Changed all the lounge room round again as hubby not happy where the new TV was. Too much glare from the window.
The worst part is taking all my stuff out of the Cabinet to move it. C Ds and video's and tapes etc. took me longer to do that than move things around and clean lol. Think I wore myself out that's why i fell alseep lol

Glad the snow is starting to melt for you I bet you will be glad to see the back of it.

Yes fine, thanks for asking, snow is melting more as it seems to be drizzling now.
I've googled inventions in the yrs 1906 /07 and under the letter C, but can't see anything,lol

Something you have at a certain time of day. I am sure you will have had this at some time in your life but there are so many different varieties these days they are now a bit old hat.

Very famous brand name and has part of the inventors name on it
Edit; ...............All over the world by the way

Coffee fits clue for certain time and so many different varieties,,
but was discovered centuries before.
' I might have had this at some time in my life, and they are a bit old hat now' ? Mmmm?

No not really superstitious, just the magpie one, always get some else to look also if I see a single bird.lol

Not Coffee but you are getting warmer

Think first meal of the day

Hi Sandie,you were correct with the answer to my question
Henry Cole Invented the Christmas Card in 1843
Hi Jackie
Just a quick look in while i have my coffee ,been shopping for clothes today ,got a Valentine wedding reception to go tomorrow ,so picked Silver grey trousers with a long black and grey top ,with our weather i thought trousers would be warmer !

I had a single Magpie in my garden for a long time about 4 months. He would come on my patio every morning and actually take bread out of my hand. Then for some unknown reason he just dissapeared one day and never saw him again. I called him/her Maggie it would sit in the tree outside and I would just say come on Maggie and down it would fly

Cornflakes were invented by Wil Kellogg in the yr 1906....?

Hi Jackie ,Sandie and Mandy,
Hope you are all well today.
