Its not just the grown ups........

......who flake out after Christmas dinner you know......in fact he nearly flaked out INTO his Christmas dinner.... hehehehe


Have had quite an odd kind of Christmas...a brilliant "being together as a family" time, but also disappointing, in that at least 2 of the toys (not cheap ones either) have broken already :( Build quality these days is appalling...you pay through the nose, most often, for things your children want, and then find them to be flimsy on the day, and then 1/2 price in the sales on Boxing Day.

Some sad news also, my Great Aunt died on Christmas night :( I wasn't particularly close to her, but I am very sad for the members of my family who were. It was very sudden, and for it to happen on Christmas night has caused a lot of shock.

But....she was 91 yrs old, had had a fantastic day at my parents house on Christmas Day...so at least she spent her final hours in the bosom of love and togetherness.

Rest in Peace, Auntie Vi....

Aww bless him. Jack, Lou and I were the only ones awake after dinner. Everyone was snoring away around us while we played Elefun for the 60millionth time!!
I'm sorry to hear about your Aunt but like you say, a good way to go if you have to after spending a lovely day with her family.
Hugs to you all.
