Thumbs up Re: Merry Christmas...

It was early morning on Christmas Day, and our house was already ringing with festive cheer! The jingle of bright glass baubles on the carefully decorated tree... the crackle of torn wrapping paper... the high pitched squeals of childish delight...

...and Daddy yelling, 'GO BACK TO BED YOU LITTLE MONGRELS, IT'S ONLY 6AM!!!'

So, what else happened? Pressies under the tree...





Dodged a spider...



Cooked a leg of ham...





^^ This is the first time I've tried it, and my scoring was far too deep. Won't make that mistake next time!

Supervised our pups in the spa...





We had a good time. Happy Christmas everyone.

Yeah just did my first in 36 years as well...... Unusual from my POV to have appropriate weather for once. Enjoyed ourselves ..... Missing the family back home though.

Hope you pulled out the Pav as well Xmas isn't xmas without Pav for me anymore.

Merry Christmas to all of you......

Work are getting their moneysworth from me this year as they have finally seen the sense in putting the people on shift who want to work, and letting the people with kids stay home

So.....shock horror.....I shall go on record as having consumed NO alcohol on December 25th this year, and only 1 glass of wine on the 26th

My fridge is sulking

I'm seeing if home bought Scotch and dry will cure my ailments that seem to have pervaded my time in the UK this time around. Two freaking orrible colds one on top of the other.... and my gawd... Thumb frigging arthritis or something very similar. Bloody hurts and I can't open anything.... I wont be able to do my job like this... so it's a bit of a worry.... Spose there is always the left hand.

So over to the Scotch and Dry.

Lovely happy pics .

Husband is given a ham each year but I've never tried to bake the thing. Not sure how.
Rather delish looking dinner mind. I'm coming to your gaff.
