A very late good morning and Happy Christmas to all. Had forgotten the chaos an 18 month old could cause!! Wishing you all well, whatever the shape of your day.

Happy Christmas to all!

GSs managed to last till 6.30 before opening the pressies! Still feels pretty early to me!!

Hope you all have a jolly day in your different ways and in your different places. tchsmile

A very Happy Christmas to you all

Having a quick break in between putting on the turkey and just going to have a shower etc.

Those in sympathy with the Queen -get well soon, but in the mean time molly coddle yourselves!

Peace to everyone all over the world.

Thinking of you and your turkeys my son (down south) has created this. He fancies himself as a chef.
He has boned all this and has stuffed various different birds inside each other. Using some surgical sewing technique on the way.
He is not a surgeon just a fiddle and brass playing software engineer.

A rare lie in and a cuppa brought up to me. Bliss. Just phoned the NZ faction. Lovely lazy day. No visitors, no presents, no hassle. Perfect peace.

Seasons wishes to everyone else on here with family stuff to do. May you have great fun. For those home alone, I extend a hand of invisible friendship and hope. ?

Good morning and happy Christmas to you all. Hope all goes as planned for everyone - and Kitty that you do improve enough to enjoy at least a slice of turkey - probably a tipple beforehand might help - not sure, as I do not drink. Enjoy your days - off to have breakfast now, a bit late, but the other half decided to get up and come and chat with me - most unusual, as he knows I like to sit and answer e-mails and gransnet!

Good Morning Christmas day from me. I woke up at a decent 8.30am not long followed by a phone call from DD sending good wishes before they went the 5 minutes round the corner to open their presents with their cousins.

I am still in my dressing gown. deciding whether or not to go for a walk now as OH CBA to get to bed or early enough to get up in the mornings.

I am having a nut roast at evening meal time. One mans roast is another woman's Sunday ruined It does not take long to cook anyway.
Have as good a day as you can.

Good Christmas morning from the kitchen!
May I just wish you all a joyous Christmas if possible with those you love, whether that is today or over the coming week!
? Joy to the world ?

Merry Christmas everyone. ?? The turkey is in the oven, the veg is prepared, I only have the potatoes to peel. My DD, SiL and four DGC are arriving at about 11:00am. My living room is awash with deliveries from Santa Claus. Ooh, it's so exciting, I feel like a little child again, a bit like Scrooge when he wakes on Christmas day. I haven't felt like this for years, Yipee.
Have a great day everyone.

Merry Christmas, everyone! wine

Just leaping out of bed to run down and see if he's been (and to put the oven on) smile

Happy Christmas to everyone ???

Wild wind up here in Edinburgh. Haven't risked opening the curtains yet. Minimal presents exchanged with DH. Lunch at DDs later with the DGSs, DS and SiL (the chef!). Pretty lazy day for me anyway. Greetings to all.

'Negotiated'

Good morning all. Awake just after 7.15. Nevotiated the stair gate and made a pot of tea. All is quiet, at the moment, but no doubt it will get noisier soon. Breakfast, then Church, then home to lunch and presents. Have a good day everyone.

kittylester Sun 25-Dec-16 08:28:29

Good morning all and Merry Christmas!

Starting slowly as we have nothing on at all today. The weather looks fairly unexciting in North Leicestershire.

A small, preprepared turkey breast for us, though whether we are well enough to eat it is a different matter.

Enjoy your days everyone!

harrigran Sun 25-Dec-16 08:21:11

Good morning, it is mild and windy. Lazy morning planned, no Christmas dinner to prepare as we are just having brunch. No children in our street and Santa does not come to our house so all is quiet.

ffinnochio Sun 25-Dec-16 08:10:49

Good Morning all. A grey but mild day out there. Hope everyone's plans for the day go
Christmassy!

Pittcity Sun 25-Dec-16 08:04:26

Happy Christmas from a warm windy Colchester. DH has Jamie Oliver on YouTube while he prepares the turkey. Children and grandchildren arriving soon.

Morning all, i have been awake since 5.40am but refused to get up so made a cuppa and went back to bed and read for a while.

At 7am decided to get up as obviously not gonna be able to go back to sleep.

Have noticed there are lights on in the houses around me now especially those with children so Santa has been!!! lol.

A quite day on the cards for me and DH but family round tomorrow.
Have a wonderful day everyone what ever you are doing. Merry Christmas.

Have a good day everyone.
