Good Morning Christmas Day

Merry Christmas, everyone, rather late but the day was busy and lovely. I hope you are all right after your fall, Galen, but confess to wanting to hear the full story of you and the gardener.

Merry Christmas from NE Scotland. It has been dry and bright here today. DH and I by ourselves today apart from a visit from 1 DD and husband and 3 DGC on their way to DD's in-laws for lunch. Other DD and 2 grandchildren 140 miles away with in-laws. All will be here for New Year. We have enjoyed a low key day.

Merry Christmas to you all from a dry (atm - fingers crossed!) Tees Valley.

We had breakfast in bed this morning, then went and mucked out, always a treat ? .

There's a loin of pork in the oven, crackling is crisping up nicely and all the veg are prepped. We'll be opening a nice bottle of fizz to go with lunch.

Thank you ninathenana for your kind thoughts for us in Cumbria. So far the weather has been fine today but the forecast is not good for later. So dogs walked early and bird in the oven ready for the onslaught of grandchildren. Thank you for the suggestion of different wrapping paper for each child, made life much simpler! Happy Christmas everyone.

Morning everyone hubby and I are cooking dinner together .Skyped grandchildren in Dublin while they opened their presents .Hopefully we will be there next Christmas plus they will home for a visit on 16th Jan

Happy Christmas to one and all hope you have peaceful one

Galen I do hope you had more on than the time you fell in the bathroom and had to get the gardener to assist!

Started by falling in my suite! Had to call for assistance. I'm not hurt, just shaken!
Merry Xmas to you all from between the Canary Islands and Lisbon.

Actually, to be honest, it's not all bad. I went outside to the garage late last night to see if the parcel I am expecting from Amazon had arrived while I was out, maybe. (it hadn't). It was wonderful... there was a huge bright silvery moon lighting up the whole sky. And suddenly the sound of a hooty owl somewhere very close, sounding so clear and beautiful.
I stood in the silver light and listened.
It was one of those magic moments.

Happy Christmas.
Slow start to my day as I am on my own until I go to DD's later on.
Just had a couple of Weetabix with sweepings up from some crumbled Florentines that I made yesterday. Decadent, or what?
Had Clare Balding on Radio2 and now it's Stewpot.
Gentle rain happening and my thoughts are with the flood-affected and those displaced by conflicts.

Happy Christmas everyone from damp (well, wet really) Devon.
More rain, yippee!

Happy Christmas to one and all - Santa where are the teeth i asked for.
NHS pulled all mine out 3 months ago. Oh well turkey soup for dinner.
Lots of kiddywinks out this morning on new scooters and skate boards.
All the best to all and thanks to staff at gransnet for the site.

Good morning, cool and grey here. Happy Christmas to everyone. Santa does not visit this house. I have been up since 8am preparing salads and putting together food for buffet supper at DS's home. In an hour we will be travelling to see GC and then on to a restaurant.

Hope everyone as a great day .love to all of you alone hope you are treating yourselves . Just myself and hubby today just been chatting to grandchildren I have horrible cold hope it's improved for tomorrow when they all descend will be happy to get rid of Santa sacks and boxes which are waiting for them here it's very dull here in Yorkshire dry at moment hope Cumbria doesn't get downpours today love to all ???

Thought I would have a lie in today, my cat thought otherwise. Dull and grey in NW London but at least it is dry for now.

Yesterday for me was a lovely day, today cannot better it until maybe the phone starts ringing.

I am on my own, content and happy.

Sending Best Christmas Wishes from a rather almost bright Wirral no rain here at all which is a big surprise.
Just packing up my car to drive to DDs to distribute prezzies to DCs then on to DS2s and his wife and her Grandparents for Xmas lunch,enjoy the day everyone.xxglammaxx

Merry Christmas to you all ?
It's raining here and dull but never mind, the carols are playing and my dgd has facetimed to show me her presents.

Merry Christmas Michael and everyone. Dull but dry here on the North East Coast. Santa has been ! Off to see DGC soon then back home to prepare dinner for the family . Have a lovely day everyone .

Happy Christmas everyone. Hubby said i should look at my computer for half an hour or else I'll be twitching! The turkey is in the oven. Mid morning my daughter, hubby and granddaughter will arrive for an early lunch. Daughter is working from 2pm. Mid afternoon we hope to drive to our son's house to see him and his young family. Praying that there is no stress today. It always seems to creep up on us.

Merry Christmas from sunny Colchester. Thinking of eating Christmas Dinner outside as it's so warm.

Merry Christmas to everyone No rain here - yet! DGCs have just phoned, all so excited! Family all here on Sunday, so looking forward to it - playtime

Merry Christmas all, however you spend it. Dull in South East, but no rain. Just us and DD with little terror grandson. Just off to visit my parents' grave, then church. Peace - hopefully - to everyone. Xx

The living room looks like a bomb site but DGS is so excited! Happy Christmas!

Merry Christmas to everyone.

I'm in Taunton today: it's damp and gloomy so far and I'm developing another cold. (Is it coincidence that, since my flu jab, I've had one cold after another?) Still, my DS has brought me a nice cup of tea, Father Christmas has left a stack of goodies under the tree and my DDIL is cooking yummy lamb for Christmas dinner so all I have to do for now is lounge in bed in my cosy thermal Jim jams. Happy Christmas everyone!
