This is one year where you can do Christmas on your own if you wish - the virus gives everyone the perfect reason (or excuse!) to stay at home on your own without giving offence!
I don’t really like being on my own at times like this, so after a very happy Christmas last year with DD and family who are going to their in-laws this year, my sister in law has kindly invited us both over for Christmas lunch.
However, I don’t think that the virus gives a fig about Christmas Day nor stops being contagious over the festive period, and we had been worrying about safe bubbles in my sister in laws house as her daughter with g’children, including one university student, will be there, so a couple of suggestions here of a festive brunch in the park is something that we’ll think very seriously about, thank you.
Hope everyone has a lovely time, whatever you decide. ???
