Christmas always used to be lovely at ours with sons and their partners and my Mum and stepdad. Often had daughter in laws family there too. So different now as Mum has passed away (miss her so much!) and stepdad is in his 90's & goes to his family now. Sons have their own homes now & do Christmas there rather than all wanting to come to us so that makes me sad as whole family never seem to get together. We are hugely welcome at either of their homes so that is lovely but I miss the old Christmases. This Christmas DH & I had Christmas on our own which was peaceful and lovely but we have both commented that we probably won't do that again. Miss the family too much. What to do next year? It will be lovely whatever but never the same as it was.
To think that London, or anywhere else for that matter, does not belong to any one demographic
