Advent, Day 11

Firstly, heartfelt thanks to adafrog for the lovely Christmas card. It has just arrived today. :)

Secondly, the promised press photo of the 6th batch of the GCBF:



From the left:
Spitzbuben (basically almond biscuits with jam filling),
Hazelnut hearts,
Chocolate-walnut Financiers,
Mini orange tartlets,
Marzipan pretzels
and Coconut crescents.

Thirdly, I'm in desperate need for beta readers. The most generous curiouswombat declared herself willing to weed out my creative grammar in two of my Christmas gift fics, but I still have 4 that need a close eye. They are all fairly short, between 1 page and 6 pages, two of them Miss Marple and two of them Tolkien-related (The Hobbit-fics).

Update:
Three of the four fics have been picked up by the lovely thesmallhobbit, so there's only one Miss Marple fic that still needs some loving attention. Any takers? Please? Pretty please?

If anyone could sacrifice an hour or two, I'd be grateful. Usually, I don't mind posting un-betaed stuff, as I use both spellchecker and grammar checker and give the things several re-reads, but these are gifts, and it would be embarrassing if there were any stupid mistakes. Thanks!
