Christmas Day at the Shy/Flick Household

Abigail due at our house at 11 Hooray!!!
Time to peel the spuds, cut the sprouts, lay the table, get all the chairs..organise the presents....
Abigail arrives at 12 late discharge from Hospital only 3 staff on...
We open our presents ..we have a tradition in our house that the total spend for a present is £2 only, this has 2 effects, one, no panic over money for our student children and secondly you get some VERY QUIRKY Presents usually from Charity shops.. I managed to get 3 books on Serial Killers this year ...COOL :)))


Played Bingo, have a Pub Quiz... things get nasty as Emily decides that Scarlett and I have an unfair advantage ..being old ...oh sorry Emily we will try and work on that for next year..
We eat crisps, pretzels, nibbles, sweets,crisps ,sweets, pretzels and nibbles eat eat eat
Lunch fabulously cooked by Shy, Abigail bearing up extremely well she is so looking forward to proper food and was worried that something would happen to prevent her eating this Christmas Lunch...

Much pulling of bargain crackers, Henry is being an Angel...

After Lunch
watch Eastenders with much heckling from various members of family NOT APPRECIATED Abigail leaves for the Hospital her curfew ended. She did so well.
Fall asleep during Dr Who

After the second Episode of East Enders ..PLAY POKER


Lance has never played before...
Excellent fun was had by all ..little worried about how good James has got ..sign of much practising I fear...
Shy overcomes all upstarts and challenges and wins the day HOORAY
