Happy Christmas Eve everyone Having a quick rest between preparations, hope you’re all having a good day and aren’t too stressed. Mum has dozed off after having her eye drops, they always seem to have that effect on her 😀 and Donald is in the bedroom watching so it’s nice to have a quiet few moments I think we’re off delivering presents later to the family so it might have to be takeout for tea

Enjoy the quiet moments Teebs. We're on the mulled wine now. Terrible tonight and I can't think of a film that would appeal to me, Howie and my sister so we might play Monopoly! It's the Here and Now edition and you get millions It's cute with metal markers like a mobile phone and a roller boot. Hope every one is ok.

Evening all. I'm waiting for my LurkyCat, I don't want him waiting outside too long in this cold, it's going white already. I've not been able to get warm all day. I hope it's white all over tomorrow and Christmassy. Hear hear, it is the best day of the year, Lister was right. We're watching You've Been Framed Christmas mishaps. S'funny. Mum says she knows what she'd do with most of the little darlings. Loving reading about all the festive plans, mine went belly-up for the main part, I thought Christmas Eve was a normal day, I remember always working on C Eve and then going from Trafford Park into Manchester doing Christmas shopping at Lewis's. Got to the wash-house this morning and everything was in darkness. I switched the lights on, stuck my washing in, poured Comfort etc and then 'they' never switched on the machines! Sod it, it can all stay there till we're all back to normal. I'd had a shower, then forgotten mobile phone so had to go for the bus, waited ages for the 245 with wet hair, miserable as all get out, but then turned out a nice day, shop in Aldi with son and to his for curry and chips (so common) then back to bungalow to find the doc had let himself in and woke Mum up, she was a tad surprised! My brother hadn't got there yet, with me leaving early and there was no need, I could have had a lie in and waited for the doc. What a cock-up. I had to nap. Rumer Godden always used to nap, siesta is normal in some parts of the world, I must have been foreign in a former life. I think I was Chinese. P thank you for the link, I will check it out asap. I've never fancied mulled wine, is it nice? I like sherry. Teebs it makes sense to rest, I usually manage a ten minute stint before resting for twenty minutes. R I can't believe you're ironing! Daph's cleaning the house, y'all are saints, I'm ignoring all the tinsel bits on the carpet and calling it Christmassy. PK I went to see Twelfth Night at the Lowry I think it was, but I can't remember any of it now! I've just finished reading my Shakespeare book, it was really good, felt a bit sorry for him not having anybody to carry on his coat of arms and stuff. Shame. M will you be going to midnight mass? I miss not going, but Mum can't get out now.

Jung’s Ditto that’s some day you’ve had you’re bound to be done in We managed to get the presents delivered, but crivens it was cold we had to defrost the car before we left, thank goodness it was all in town 😃 I’m watching the Yorkshire Vet, I really enjoy it but there is a poor little puppy they think has been abandoned 😢. Talking of animals my two are whimpering to get out so I’d better let them out 🙄 to all

Merry xmas and happy holidays! One of you ladies gave me a pair of red socks with a reindeer on the ankle, many many many years ago. They disappeared for a long time; turns out my mom stole them. Anyways, I got them back, and am currently wearing them. Have a nice day all.

I've eaten too much, has anybody got any Andrews? Bleugh. We're watching Call The Midwife. Enjoyed being with family today. We could go to daughters tomorrow for curry, but Mum won't make it, can hardly move now really and can only do brother's house because it's easy with a downstairs loo so we might go for new year otherwise we're in for the duration. Sounds like you've all had a lovely day. Did you all get turkey?

We had turkey, chicken, ham, roasties, Yorkshires, two different stuffing, pigs in blankets, sprouts with chestnuts, roast parsnips, carrots, gravy and home made bread sauce. Not bad considering I only have the small top oven. It was all very tasty even though I say it myself! Shame you can't get out with with mum Ditto. We just played Monopoly and Howie and I played Doctor Who Trivial Pursuit earlier. Guess who won Rainbow your day sounds very relaxing. M did my card arrive? I think I sent it a bit late. Yours arrived yesterday thanks. Hope you have had a good day DeeDee and PK. Teebs, more fab photos on FB of the grandkids
