My Christmas generally involves a last minute dash to the shops followed by even more last minute dash to the airport hoping the flight isn’t cancelled due to the inevitable fog that always seems to come around Christmas!
My Christmas Day will be spent in the kitchen watching Dave cook Christmas dinner so I don't have to make conversation with our mums.
We will then sit down to dinner and Dave's mum will insult someone - usually Dave although she did tell me my hair looked like it had been chewed by rats one year!
After dinner Dave and I will wash up, and then we'll all sit down and try to decide what we are going to talk about.
My mum will leave between 5 and 6 as she can't leave the dog for too long (the dog isn't welcome in my house) and Dave's mum will go between 7 and 8 as she has to take her tablets!
Always have christmas at home no inlaws allowed !! it will be our first christmas without the 3 boys oldest will be in Kenya with the RAF,last year was our first "cash christmas" it looked a little sparse but come january and no bills was well worth it!!!
Just looked at your name and cant beleieve I asked where you flew to!!!
I used to go really cheaply a few years back it was new york flight from Manchester to New York via Shannon and they just used to fill the seats.
I adore Ireland even though I have hardly ever seen the sun when there!!
Back to square one but what dunt kill you makes you stronger!!
Thanks fingerscrossed, I might try the New York flight! Your correct, the Sun rarely if ever makes an appearance, we do have lots and lots and lots of rain though!!
its still beautiful though, rain or no rain. If I had to choose one view to wake up to every morning, after Robbie Williams at the side of me it would be the village of Inch sea in front , mountains behind. It was lush.
Love the claxon and no in laws Christmas'
Back to square one but what dunt kill you makes you stronger!!
oh it is i booked a cottage over the Oct bank holiday it was freezing wet and windy but this brand new cottage had a log fire burning when we got there and some homemade soup with homemade bread waiting for us!! It was perfect.
Gone all day dreaming now!!!
Back to square one but what dunt kill you makes you stronger!!
We had that Christmas last year, it was wonderful; no inlaws, no Hunt for the Red October. This year will be our first cash Christmas, only problem is after 5 years of my sister having me mum she is bound our way this Christmas, she too dresses up for Christmas and likes things her way, I might buy new Jim jams hee hee
