Hope your train journey is quieter DG

Sounds like you had some fun with the family, a nice way to spend Christmas.
|
|
Only a few days left till Easter eggs are in the shops...
|
|
@Grumpy Anon, we've got Valentines before Easter, so the heart shaped cards will probably be out first! (but not by much) ;-)
|
|
Sounds a lot like ours except the TV only went on yesterday for the first time since the 23rd (Dr Who) and we did go to the cinema on the 26th (Fantastic Beasts)!
Still have a family birthday to fit in before the New Years Eve revelries so partying on...! |
|
Good luck with the bustitution around Shenfield :-)

don't moan about the mattress in the study, DG, I got the sofa bed in the living room and a dog that barks at the foxes going past outside at 7am

Must admit, your ride to Norwich is similar to a nightmare ride I experienced from Edinburgh to London a few years ago. Except not a loud family, just a lot of louts that got on around York. One in particular thought it was charming to change all his clothes--in the aisle--while giving the entire carriage a very loud monologue which only proved what an idiot he was. That ride is the reason I buy first class train tickets when I can afford it. Doesn't guarantee decent behaviour, but improves the odds. Hope your ride home is incident-free.

Train back from Norfolk (via Cambridge)
- no anecdotes |

You are not an old man!
Because you are the same age as me. And that is not old. |
|
Sounds like fun!

Did you send a photo of your sleeping arrangements to @Rhodri? Always good value on Christmas Eve, his timeline full of folks sharing their somewhat unusual sleeping arrangements. Makes me feel grateful to be in a double bed in my childhood bedroom - perhaps the only upside to middle-aged spinsterhood!

No Monopoly here either. We played Trivial Pursuit....
|
|
No telly at all from heading to bed on Christmas Eve, through to getting home again yesterday. Spent the evenings at the in-laws playing bridge instead: love that the children are finally old enough to play with us all until approximately our own bedtime.
The last two evenings have included binge watching to catch up on the TV stuff that was recorded. |

Every ritualistic Thanksgiving here I have this idea of what it might be like if somehow on the long flight to Mars, somehow the flight menu planner made an error and packed 3 years of turkey dinners for the crew, by mistake. Golly... wouldn't that be something.

Merry Christmas. (Belated due to board games)
