I've been making jellies this morning, the turkey crown has been moved from the freezer to the fridge and the mince for tonights sheperds pie is defrosting on the worktop.

He doesn't live near Manston Aerodrome, does he?Chris Rea is on the radio telling me that he is still driving home for Christmas.
Considering he left in about 1986 I would have thought that he would have made it by now. I told him not to buy that Morris Marina...

He needs someone to buy him a satnav for Xmas.

I am not going on a Christmas Eve ride today, although part of the design of me taking Christmas Eve off was to do so, but -10C temps have taken that off the list. It was 15 yesterday!

Turkey is in the oven for tonight's meal.
Tomorrow's lunch will be turkey with Bubble and squeak, followed by Christmas Pudding at tea time.

I've just been to a place 4 miles north-west of here. This meant that there were no headwinds on the way back. I even had a genuine tailwind on one road.

A Mundane Christmas is what I would like.
I have a warm house, plenty of food, good neighbours (if I needed them). Not really a "party" person, as I prefer small groups of people and having "proper" conversations, not loud music, and lots of mingling, chattering with inebriated peeps.
In 2017, my Mother was admitted to hospital on Christmas Eve.
In 2018, my Mother was terminally ill and died on the 28th December.
Last year, I was in the middle of Chemo Treatment, on Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve.
I would say that this year is much worse. In the three years, as above, the rest of the world was carrying on in a relatively normal way.

Showers here today chez Casa Reynard, and a bitterly cold wind.
It was still sheeting it down with rain for most of the night - the drains here are within a foot of overflowing. It'll take them a few days to pump that lot out onto the washes. In the mean time, I will be sending for Mr Noah to see what he can do for me...
Had a lovely walk with my friend Linda and her two dogs, but it was incredibly squelchy.
Feels incredibly odd for it to be Christmas Eve and me not going out hunting yellow stickers in Tesco. It's the first time in well over a decade that I've not gone out. But time to be sensible, methinks.
