Had cava and bacon sandwiches together for breakfast… followed by some readings/liturgy in recognition of the Day… followed by exchange of presents (lots of books for me!).
Prepared vegetables for lunch and sorted things generally, ready for Christmas meal.
Ru+co arrived (by car) just after 12 noon… and Ru prepared cocktails alcohol and non-alcohol for everyone.
Eat snacks and nibbles and opened presents… before Christmas meal (two roast chickens, roast potatoes+parsnips, sprouts, carrots). Inevitably, LOTS of food/drink leftover!
Played the hat game after food (hilarious), then stopped for puddings… then played Jenga (30 course high tower!).
Ru+co left at 7.15pm… spent an hour tidying/clearing up (while Moira watched ‘Midwife’).
I ended up going to bed pretty early (9pm) to read. It had been a really lovely day.
