............the Christmas story.........

The Boss and I decided it was about time Charlotte got the traditional story of Christmas...........we had taken the nativity from Dad's house........the S & H, YH, Charlie and Hannah came to visit............we let Charlie populate the scene while I told the story..........of course we included out Spanish Caganer in the tableau. (If you don't know about the caganer google it).

Half way through the afternoon a phone call from my sis.....the consultant from the hospital had been in touch..........Dad has a chest infection and is not eating or drinking........the brain scan results are not good............in his words "It's just a matter of time".

Put a damper on the afternoon both here and at my sis' place.

I managed to drag myself out to the Christmas quiz............didn't want to let the rest of the team down........but my heart wasn't in it..........we won second prize..........and I won first prize in the raffle..........a litre of cognac......I think I may be having one or two shots over the coming days.

Das vidanya moy padruga.
