It wasn’t our turn to have the whole family this year, so I feel sorry for the in-laws, who were supposed to be hosting the big family groups. We were expecting to be on our own on the day itself anyway.
As it happens, one of our DDs presented us with DGS6 during lockdown and has invited us and the baby’s other grandma to theirs for Christmas Day. We’re not allowed to meet in private homes or gardens in this area right now, but if by great good fortune six of us are allowed to get together again by then, that’s what we’ll be doing.
Again if it’s allowed, we’re hoping to spend time with the other AC and DGS separately over the festive period.
If we’re still in “special measures”, we’ll be meeting up a few at a time for yet more long walks.
