hi all, hope you all had a nice xmas day,we did even tho my daughter who was on dessert duties locked herself out of her house

[bluebell10]

she has a dodgy door,so we had no pudding lol.then the men were washing up & blocked the sink, undone the pipe underneath & lost the washer!it was so funny,finally got washing up done at 7pm,there were only 16 place settings!all fun & games xx

hope she got back in! glad you had a nice day

[bluebell10 in reply to hamble99b]

yes she's ok thanx :

[Fibrofoggiest]

Oh dear, I'm glad the men were doing the washing up, as they should if you'd slaved over a hot stove to produce their lovely dinner, but then they did have to fix the mess they probably made themselves....

I'm glad your daughter has been able to get in, these things happen and seem to have no respect for the fact it's Christmas...... But glad you seem to have had a nice time

Foggy x

lol o yes i can't stand there to do the mountain of plates & dishes! my eldest daughter & one of my sons helped a lot with the dinner too, i supervised more than anything even then i had to keep sitting down,anyway hope u had a good day

[Fibrofoggiest in reply to bluebell10]

I had a very quiet day, I was completely alone, didn't see anyone except for my doglets, so I spent a chill out day dressed in my Pjs and did some reading and felting.......lovely and peaceful

hi ken, yes hectic as usual,i wouldn't expect anything less from my lot,i love it! luckily its a lot easier for me now kids are adults,lol,very tiring tho in all ways,hope you & your family had a good day xx

[TheAuthor in reply to bluebell10]

Yes thanks. It was a unique Christmas for my wife and I, as it was the first time that we have spent it on our own. My daughter had a new baby a few weeks ago and she and her husband spent their Christmas together as a family. It meant a lot less work for me but we did miss them xx

[bluebell10 in reply to TheAuthor]

aw congratulations on the new baby,we had our 1st xmas on our own last year & it was horrible lol,didnt seem like xmas at all as we have 5 grown up kids & lots of grandchildren were used to the big xmas days(i cant think of the word) but im pleased you had a nice day x

[Offcut]

Sounds Like you had fun. We had our oven decide to pack up on Xmas day so we took it to my parents house 2 miles away as they were away abroad. Once cooked poped it in the car and drove home to eat with the family. Car smelt of turkey for weeks

[bluebell10 in reply to Offcut]

o no! sounds like you had fun too lol

[Offcut in reply to bluebell10]

Life is like that always look on the bright side of life! ( I bet that songs in your head now )

[bluebell10 in reply to Offcut]
