HoHoHo.

Christmas was very different this year. No family gatherings, no cooking, no relaxed present opening.

It was up early, a mad dash to Mr Ws family for an exchange of gifts on the driveway, a visit to Mr Ws Grandad and best friends grave side with flowers then to Lady Lindas (best friends wife) for the day.

Mr W hurt his back washing the car yesterday so didn't join Linda and me for a lovely walk. Linda then cooked dinner for us but didn't want to carve the turkey as its what her husband used to do.

We then had a drive around Ringmer looking at all the Christmas lights before dropping Linda home. We then headed home for some presents to each other. Mr Ws new boots didn't fit, he didn't get the "if you can read this you're too close" T shirt but he loved his Royal Marines cap. I got a Pandora Charm (that I already have!!) A snow globe, a Hug ring and some Jelly tots. My favourite.

Merry Christmas everyone. I hope you had a lovely day. Looking forward to next year. Xxx
