Ah Kay, sigh. It's tough isn't it. My son tried to call me the other day from London. I was out at the time and missed the call. Dunno where he is now. He and his sister were going, together to the French Alps*** to have a white Christmas* with other Aussie "orphans" far from home. So he's maybe there by now, or knowing his last minute gaddings, in transit. His sister, with the new French job, is working and had to cancel**. I just had an email from her. She's finally worked out how to operate a Parisian laundrette!!! Miss them both. And this is the first Christmas that the two of them won't at least be together.



*Last year they all went to Vienna, and it didn't snow!!!

** I hope she can at least get time off to see the Paris Christmas lights, walk down the Champs Elysées, visit the Galeries Lafayette.

***Somewhere between Cluses and Evian les Bains

A VERY GOOD CHRISTMAS DAY





:-6:):wah:;):D:-4

Night night to all my friends........





MERRY CHRISTMAS XXX

Definitely a childrens' time of year !!

Enjoy, wherever you are :-6 :wah: :-4

Christmas day was a bit heavy going here.. grin... due to circumstances outside my control. But we managed to turn things around, pretty much, and had a good day. The turkey was awesome (even though it was somewhat postponed) and the champers was cold and bubbly (perfect). One excited Small Person got a stocking full of goodies from Santa and just seeing his eyes light up made everything somehow worth while. I copped some great loot, including some eccentric things like a dictionary of etymology (in French!!) and a pair of Nordic walking poles.

Boxing Day today, and I think we'll head back to Sydney.

Romy sent me some photos of Paris. And I'm posting a view from the window of her apartment, it looks very cold there now.

Hope you all have a wonderful Christmas. It's a good time of year.

Hi Pam ! Seems like you have had a good Christmas ! I'm afraid I don't have the joy of seeing childrens' faces on Christmas morning - my son is adult, but he still shows great surprise and pleasure at the pressies on Christmas morning! (He's still just a big kid at heart :wah:).

Hope everybody has had an enjoyable Christmas :-6





Night night, sleep well, to all my friends !

:-4

Hi Pam

We have had a lovely two days.

Our youngest grandson can now open his own Toyworld store:wah:

We tricked our two older grandkids,wrapped up a cap each & just gave that to them.

We watched them unwrap them,they gave us a kiss & hug.

Little did they knoqw we had put some money up near the brims.

Took them a while to find the $.Then the big smiles came & they laughed with us at our joke.

Hope you have had a great time as well G-Gill:-4:-6

Hi Gill and MrsK!! Yes, it's a great time of the year. I love you tricking the older kids, MrsK!! I think we're all kids at Christmas. Back in Sydney now - missed the start of the yacht race, but the harbour's been very very lively this afternoon. We're all pooped, just finished off the turkey and are all sprawled about contentedly.

Kaz - in yer jimjams.. haven't heard that expression for a while. Here they're jarmies. Grin. But a great visual!! I'm still in mine, actually, which are dark grape coloured satin shorties.. grin.

An apricot, orange, pale misty dawn is rising over Sydney harbour... looks like a nice day coming.

Enjoy your soaps, Gill. I've only ever watched on, when I was preggers once... "Prisoner" - and aussie soap. I was a total addict. Grin. Never dared start any others.

Oh Pam you brought back memories .........boy did I LOVE Prisioner.....I also was mental over it........gawd some of them were evil.....abit like a couple here.....no names mentioned of course:yh_rotfl:yh_rotfl.I thought of you today mate as I went over Tower Bridge finking how me little Oz mates would love to see what I was looking at ......quite breath taking Pam.Ere did you get much stuffing...or dont you stuff over there:wah:.....na Kay lives there so there has to be plenty of that:rolleyes:.Its orrible the weather here mate.........still thats good old England!!!:rolleyes:

Right im off to drink wine, eat chocs and watch telly:D

Hi Carol !

I'm so sorry you have had to return a day early Mrs. I do hope you can get better soon. I wonder if it would have helped if Mr Whippy had been working - ice cream is so soothing

Glad to see you back home though !



Just a 'welcome back' bouquet for you Mrs :-4

The weather's even worse in Paris. My daughter has a bad cold, spent Christmas day on her own, worked right up to late night christmas Eve, ironing out little probs with her channel launch, and sounded quite down. It's hard being so far away. But she'll bounce back. Sbe is back at work today (Boxing Day).. we're already into the 27th here in Oz.

I loved Prisoner... remember Bea, Queen Bea. Scary. And that old woman with the very wrinkled face. God she had a tragic life, in reality.. can't go there even in my thoughts. Grin.

Thanks for thinking of me and the Tower of London in one breath. Grin.. hee hee. I hope you gave my love to the ravens. Haven't been in London since May - nice place. Now his sister's left, my son has moved from the house they shared in Barnet in the north, down to Lambeth, close to his work at CNBC. Not far from Elephant and Castle.

I just fixed an ordinary sage and onion stuffing this year. I've been through the macadamia nut, blueberry etc ones andreally prefer it simple. My bread sauce received compliments. Grin. For a change, we had a cool Christmas Day. Much better for cooking, not to mention eating.

Fam has arrived.. en masse.. gotta run xxx

Ahhhhh fanks Gill.....its good to be back with me mates I tell yer;)xxx

Kaz...........thats what you normally do ffs!!!!:wah::rolleyes:

I went through The Elephant an Castle today Pam.I couldn't believe the traffic......stand still on boxing day ffs....eres a picture we managed to take at the traffic lights at The Tower......not that great as it was taken with a phone through a car window lol:driving:;)
