Christmas was coming, the goose was getting fat....
A good old Christmas Dinner....
But our's was nowt like that.

| Somebody please tell me this is just a starter |
Despite the barren looking spread on the table (photo deliberately taken too early because I can't have you all spying on me now can I?) there were salads galore (Salad WTF?), plenty of meats (More like it), good company (Naturally, I was there) and so too was an old friend Kat Lloyd, good conversation (Nom, nom, nom), plenty to drink (Burrrrp!!) and plenty to do (ZZZZ).
The day as a whole, was a hugely successful one with plenty of time and energy for the inclusion of the likes of :
Board games (not spoiled by the presence of kids),
Wii console games (not spoiled by the presence of kids),
movies to wind the evening down (not spoiled by the presence of kids).
The movies were... Paul and Tomorrow when the war began, if anyone is asking. We thought they were good anyway.
Besides all that however, many extra sources of finger foods were provided throughout the whole day which I appear to have over indulged in (not spoiled by the presence of kids), There was still more than enough to drink (not spoiled by the presence of kids), there were Christmas puddings and trifles (not spoiled by the presence of kids), and the conversation was exceedingly invigorating (not spoiled by the presence of kids).
And believe it or not, we still managed to get ourselves totally stuffed
(not spoiled by eating any uninvited kids).
Maybe on reflection though, it might have been nice if there were a few kids there. After all, Christmas is all about the kids isn't it? And when you have kids, you tend to get kids toys to play with when the buggers go to bed don't you? I knew there was something missing...
