A very pleasant Break

[AndrewT]

Dear Everyone,

As some, of you, already know I went to Corton Coastal Village- a Warner 'Camp'- for a Turkey & Tinsel break. The Holiday 'runs' as follows, you arrive on 'Christmas Eve', then have 'Christmas Day- complete with Santa, Carols, Presents but not reindeer. The next day is 'Boxing Day' and, you finish the Holiday on 'New Years Eve'- complete with Bells, Poppers, Auld Lang Syne.....All by 10:30pm! Everyone is aboard, the Homeward Coach, by 9:30am, on Friday, and Home by lunch time.

I was also personally, very pleased, that my Tummy/Bowels, and Bladder, 'Behaved' themselves- yes, there were 'one or two' (ok about five) Incidents, which, for me, is Brilliant! I was even able to Swim, on one of the days, though I DID 'Wee' in the pool.

Are you all 'Ready', for Christmas? I am, apart from the Christmas Cards- guess who will be spending, about two hours, writing them in the morning? For my Mother, who I see a Lot of, I am going to get her Main Present in the Sales. A small Hand Torch, is her 'Token' Present- she does want one and I got, four of them- for about six pounds recently. I bought myself, the old Seventies Shipping Drama, The Onedin Line again for 'Not Many Pennies'. (I might have to buy some new/replacement Pads/ Inconit. Pads, in the New year too- after all I WILL need them).

It was a 'Long Lost Family' get together today, my Mother's Brother- my Uncle- and there son- my Cousin. Mum and I Met Up, with them all, at a Local Restaurant. The table, that we were given, was enormous- far too big to all Chat to each other. I was seated next to David, my Cousin, a Very Pleasant man in his early Forties. He is a Co-ordinator for a Coach Company, his job involves ensuring 'People & Coaches' are in the right places. He had been, for many years, a Trucker- for a Haulage Company. In all a Very interesting Catch Up. Embarrassingly and before 'anyone' even realised, David had paid the entire Bill. When I questioned this his response was 'You can do it, next time, then'- what could I say?

I will close now, once again, Merry Christmas Everyone.
