Merry Christmas to You and Yours

Family and friends are all gathering for Christmas. Number One Son is home from Rome. Friend S arrived from Hampshire. Number One Daughter and Fiance are coming up Christmas Day afternoon. Getting house ready. Cleaned the kitchen. Looking forward to Doctor Who and Wallace & Grommit on telly.  Iced 4 cakes (some for presents). Put breadmaker on so we have fresh bread for breakfast. Made a last minute panic order to Amazon and paid the eight quid next day delivery charge because the pile of presents under the tree looked much smaller than usual. Hopefully they will arrive 24th. They are promised for delivery before 1.00 p.m.

Still to do:
1) Bring in the greenery from the garden to decorate the manlepieces in the living room and the kitchen.
2) Put up the Christmas Cards
3) Pop out 24th to the bank (before lunchtime) and the local butcher (to get a pork pie) and the fabric shop to buy some fleece for a promised pressie (which has to be made to measure).
4) Remember to remove turkey crown and ham joint from freezer early
5) Make mulled wine
6) Deliver the last few cards by hand
7) Turn up at 6.30 on the village green in Birdsedge for annual carol sing. Christmas starts here.

I'm looking forward to my Christmas. I hope all of you are looking forward to yours and that you have a wonderful time, surrounded by people you like.
