Happy Christmas Michael and one an all. Still dark here but it's not cold. I know this because I have been out to the garage to bring in the 'poor old Turkey' who has been soaking in a bucket. It's time to roll up the sleeves and spend a good 1/2 hour with my hands up a turkeys arse bum and cleavage. Sounds like a perfect start to Christmas morning for youbaubles

Merry Christmas to all Gransnetters . Special thoughts for those who are alone and those for whom today is not a happy time flowers

Good morning to everyone and a Happy christmas. Calm and warm in East Sussex. The DGC watched the International Space Station cross the sky yesterday evening and believe it was Santa on his way to Australia! tchgrin

Merry Christmas everyone!

It looks coldish in North Leicestershire but I have not ventured out yet! The lounge was warm and toasty and is now covered in lurid toys and purple wrapping paper! How does Father Christmas do it?

Mum's home had the Critical Response Team out to her again last night so I won't start on the Bellinis until I have heard from a brother how she is today.

Merry Christmas and happy days to you all!

Merry Christmas one and all.
Frosty and fairly bright in this part of Essex too. Going to daughters today. Son in law will pick us up and we have taxi booked so everyone can have a glass or two wine. Then to son's tomorrow who lives in walking distance.
Enjoy your day.tchsmile

Good morning and Merry Christmas to you all, Dark and rather chilly outside, but bright and warm inside. A quiet moment to think of those who are not so lucky and might be spending a sad or lonely Christmas. We have several friends like that this year. To hose of you who can Enjoy Your Days.

annsixty Thu 25-Dec-14 08:27:10

Good morning and Merry Christmas to you all. Rather quiet day for us but lots of nice food and a glass or two so will enjoy and lots of memories of happier times.

Good morning and Happy Christmas everyone. A quiet on for me and DH with just my sister and nephew visiting for dinner. A cold but bright day.

glammanana Thu 25-Dec-14 08:40:06

Happy Christmas to everyone take care & enjoy the day,a drizzly day here by The Mersey but not too bad really,we are out from about mid-day until later to-night being fed & watered by DS2s inlaws who are lovely people they have even done a place setting for Poppy so she is not left on her own.

Merry Christmas Everyone.
Fine and clear here in Aylesbury.DGDs went to bed hyper as they'd been out to see Santa's sleigh come over. Half the street was out and we had a lovely viewing (space station came right on time!)
Presents have been opened and they're now hyper on chocolate - luckily we're fortified with bacon butties and Buck's Fizz for breakfast!

Special thoughts to all those who are alone and missing loved ones.

harrigran Thu 25-Dec-14 09:06:07

Good morning and Happy Christmas. It is dry after some overnight rain but the sky is clearing and I think we may have some sun.
Going to prepare salads and buffet food to transport to DS's home, we are having lunch in a hotel.
Special greetings to those who are alone tchsmile

Gagagran Thu 25-Dec-14 09:08:36

Happy Christmas everyone! Clear and bright here in SE Hampshire. Waiting for a Facetime from DGDs and DS in Austria ( ski-ing holiday). We had a pre-Christmas with them last weekend and another last night with DD and DGC - feel very lucky.

Good morning and a very merry Christmas to everyone.

Just taking a big deep breath here ready for a very hectic day! I do hope Santa has been kind to you all. tchsmile

Juliette Thu 25-Dec-14 09:20:43

Good morning and a Happy Christmas to you all. It's bright and clear here today, overnight frost slowly clearing under the winter sun. DS just popped in to pick up onions and butter! He is 'doing' Christmas dinner this year along with his DP, obviously forgotten the basics. Waved him off in my new onesie, not a good look on an OAP and such a faff to go to the loo! tchsmile

Nelliemoser Thu 25-Dec-14 09:30:27

Happy Christmas to all.
Its raining now and a little thunder was heard earlier. Its all coming down from The North.

It's just me and him. I am about to have a brew and relax. Dinner is when I decide it will be.

Good morning and a happy Christmas to everyone.

Woken by hailstones at 6.30 but now dry and bright if somewhat cold here in Chester.

Just given the dog a long walk to settle her for the day as we are off to dd for lunch. Should be home early evening though so she won't be left for too long.

Hope everyone has a good and peaceful day however you are spending it.
