To Mum & Dad’s again this Christmas and it was a lovely peaceful day. The nieces and nephews were spending the day with their other grandparents this year, so it was just the five of us – Mum, Dad, Nan, Jo and me.
I happened to see the kids on Christmas Eve though. I went over to meet Dad on our way to Mass and the kids were there with Pete and Jodie. They had just opened their presents and seemed pretty happy with their haul.
Santa brought me the Doctor Who series three DVD set, a couple of store cards, a beautiful ornament box, choccies, a bottle of French champagne, a Christmas tree ornament and hand towel. This last was from Gayle, my boss at the Hospice – we had to laugh because my gift to her was very similar.
