what will you be doing for Christmas?

A quiet Christmas with just our son and my Mum for a few days, hopefully have call from my Brother in Crete and try out my new camera (like Pal).

 

Folly Mon you are a wonderful and kind person and also so very Brave for your sharing your story, i admire you :D

personally i have actually managed the long straw this year and for a change i will not be working for the whole 3 days, so i am having 2 of my daughters and the 4 grandchildren over for the whole day and i must say i cant wait to totally spoil them with love and cuddles and oh the odd present

 

Don't know what to do for Christmas now? Daughter #1 isn't coming down from Bristol, Daughter #2 doesn't want to go to Sis's, the boy has gone off with his mates so I either stay here in a Christmasless house with evil wife or go off down Sis's but be without Daughter #2 for Christmas:(

 

Won`t be doing much. Herself is recovering from a heart attack a few weeks ago. I`m only taking sunday and monday off. However.:merryC::santa-snowman:Everybody.

 

Well done all those husbands who are cooking the Christmas dinner. OH is wonderful in many ways, but I left things up to him he'd go through the 'phone book and look up a takeaway. He'd track down the only one which was open for deliveries on the big day, as well. Still, he's not as bad as his dad. Years ago, having spent the entire morning with his feet up while others scurried to and fro doing the food, f-i-l finally managed to struggle over to the dining table to fill his face. 'Oh', m-i-l said mildly, 'you haven't brought in the wine'. 'For heaven's sake! Do I have to do everything around here,' snapped f-i-l, brimming with festive cheer.

 

Merry Christmas to you, Dai. Hope the missus is on the mend.

 

Well done Follyman for your courage in what you are doing - a good friend of mine went through a similar experience more than 20 years ago and is still going strong without a drink.

Xmas here is with children and wife - we have not been blessed with any grandkids. Full English breakfast with a couple of glasses of bubbly will set me up for a peaceful if exhausting day of eating, drinking and dog walking.......

Best wishes to one and all at GC for the season of goodwill and good health........

 

Sorry to hear about your wife Dai, hope she makes a quick and full recovery.

 

I guess it's that way sometimes, things don't work out. BTW CC, is swmbo really evil? :D

 

Flippin' eck Dai ! Sorry to hear that. Dunno what to say, except, I hope she makes a good recovery.

 

Clare, she`s back to nagging, always a good sign of health with you women.

 

oh Dai what have you done to the poor woman ?
no seriously hope she is soon fighting fit, wishing her a speady recovery and a Healthy new year
