Good morning to one and all and a very Happy Christmas ( Nadolig Llawen ). I hope you all recieve all the presents you were hoping for. And. I hope Drago doesn't drink himself into oblivion.

Couple of questions,

Why if the table is only set for 8 do we have enough food prepared for 80.

Do you think it is OK for me to be on here with the vacuum running which makes it sound like I am doing the vacuuming, I should add it was done yesterday and it is spotless.

Happy Christmas you lovely lot of nice people, and Drago.

The answer is "it's Christmas". The end.

First question is one of life's mysteries. I seriously reined in our food shop this year but it still looks like far too much. Last year I made a list of what didn't get touched Christmas Day/Boxing Day and bought none of it this year.

Vacuuming? Shameful behaviour. I don't know anyone who would do that........

Merry Christmas to one and all.
Light cloud and warm. Hardly seasonal but not raining.

Slept through till 7.15am. Excellent. I can hear family stirring so I'm off to empty the dishwasher, clean and light two fires, tidy the lounge, prepare breakfast, prepare dinner and keep smiling!!!

I have three adult sons upstairs......... have a great day people and if you'd like to borrow a son or two?????

Sat here with the radio on roaming round cycle chat and facebook, our eldest has stirred and is having breakfast, I've prepared our turkey ready to go on, we're just waiting for my Good Lady to stir and we can get this Xmas started.

Good morning everyone and a very merry retiree Christmas to you all.
Once I've finished nailing Santa to a burning cross, my decorations will be complete. We will be having the traditional egg and chips at lunchtime followed by a bottle of fizz.
