Re: Is Family Christmas to be legally Wrecked?
As I have spent Christmas alone for the past few years, it will be business as usual for me and the dog. Sis is going to her son, who has moved. Whether she joins me for breakfast on the way, as she did last year, hasn’t been discussed yet.

We normally hibernate. I'll cook breakfast - usually a good old English fry up. Then Val will cook Christmas lunch - roast chicken with all the trimmings and more, which we normally eat at around 4pm. Slice of Christmas cake at 9pm and that's it for another year.

Come the actual day it will just be the two of us and weather permitting we will head off with the horses for a few hours and have a nice dinner at night. Sorted.
That's a really good idea. The powers that be have moved christmas twice over the centuries, so there is no reason why individuals and family groups cannot do the same.
I am not a christian, but to me a celebration of an event should be the act of celebrating it that counts, not when it happens, especially when the actual date (assuming it actually happened) isn't precisely known anyway.

I've been going to my daughter's future in-laws for two Christmases (Bet you 'Christmases' needs an apostrophe somewhere, but I don't know where). There's been 8 of us. That won't be the case this year, no matter if there aren't any restrictions. A couple of their relations are getting on somewhat and it's not worth the risk. I would imagine 'Mrs Future in Law' will be quite happy to take a breather this year.
I don't mind if I'm on my own. I'll feel a little lost perhaps but all in all I'll be fine. Don't have to be on my best behaviour

Tough times, Pesta.
Hope that you can "link In" via your mobiles, etc, and get together via picture links.
