Come on, be reasonable, grans girls(and guys) we are all of course going to slim down to a perfect 10,("your perfect Christmas body") appear on Christmas morning, perfectly coiffed, sequins at the ready, conjuring brunch for the many "wonderful friends" and family who have been driving home for Christmas bearing gifts, rosy cheeked grandchildren and housetrained golden retrievers, you will have prepared no end of spare beds with special festive bedding, decked the halls with at least 3 tasteful Christmas trees, boughs of holly, mistletoe and fairy lights. Mountains of presents will be exchanged beside the roaring fire/log burner and then while the Christmas dinner prepares and cooks itself you will all frolic in the snow/walk the dog(S) before returning to cocktails, smoked salmon, turkey three ways, five different vegetables, crispy roasties , washed down with champagne and followed by at least three puds.
Cue happy family games of Charades, Pictionary or that one where you each drink a bottle of something very alcoholic and try to remember who or where you are. (Forget that one, it might be true)
Kitchen elves will have cleared up in the kitchen all ready for your gigantic Boxing Day buffet for the entire estate neighbourhood à la Bridget Jones's mummy.
Aren't we?
