Default Merry Christmas everyone

Another strange Christmas and New Year, but I hope we all enjoy it as best we can.

We'll be alone for the second year, but we have a turkey breast and thigh thawing out, and a Christmas pudding also ready to go.

Merry Christmas!

My son is 3 and we just left out the milk and cookies for santa, he is very excited but says he finds santa a bit scary! Had to reassure him that santa will just come and leave the gifts and he won't see him

Festive Seasons Greetings to you .

We are at Xmas Day evening now and I shall soon dish up the turkey roast with trimmings.

As someone else said "there will be other Christmases" though. Make the best of it.

Not sure I'd be reassured by that Half the fun is trying to catch him but the bugger always knows that precise moment when you fall asleep.

So Christmas Dinner is at 'dinner' time rather than 'lunch' time then.

Happy Christmas to y'al

If I could, I would gift you all with our weather today. 63 degrees F with blue skies and a warm sun.

May your day be merry and your smiles bright.

Today was white!!

It is not very often that Vancouver has a White Christmas, but we woke to about 3-4 cm of snow, and cold temperatures so it is going to last for a few days.

Merry Christmas scilly.

It was only with this post that I realised how great the time difference is - I'm watching day one of the Boxing day test here.

Edit - that's the Ashes third test for those who don't know.
