Merry Christmas

Emma and I wish you all a Merry Christmas.

This year I am “cooking” dinner again, which is Marks and Spencer’s Harissa Prawns and a gluten free Yule log. This involves taking these items out of the packages, shoving the prawns in the oven, and pouring cream over the slice up Yule Log. Our particular family tradition is to eat our Christmas Dinner in the evening. This leaves the day time for a walk or just to play with our stuff.

This is now the third year in a row that I’ve been responsible for the Christmas dinner, but got out of a hell of a lot of work by invoking the magic of St Michael.

Whether you have slaved in the kitchen all yesterday and today, or whether you have done no such thing, like me, I hope your day goes smoothly.

I have a friend who is definitely experiencing her last Christmas day today. It makes me feel rather sad. I hope to visit her during the day. Some of you will be in the same position, and even for those with close family, you don’t always get to see them on the big day.

A big thank you to all of those workers in the health care, energy infrastructure, transport and emergency services that enable the rest of us to have the day off in comfort and safety.
