6am on a wet Christmas Eve in West Wales and you can make me laugh 😂.
I spent yesterday in hospital with an elderly neighbour, who then died. Her equally frail partner is in there too, and their sons are next door, getting drunk, probably, and talking for the first time in their adult lives (experience tells me).
A couple of days ago my long-life partner and I were playing 'worst Chritmasses'. The winner was the one when our estranged adopted daughter left her baby in the pub with some dodgy men and got herself arrested...🙄
Seems you have some 'Worst Christmases' of your own, Janey. Hopefully this one had its bright moments - with many more bright moments to come in 2025 :)
I can't send you a pic of my beautiful white lurcher doing figure-of-eight zoomies on the beach. Or of the easy-pizza and salad 'christmas' dinner by the fire with an old friend. Retirement has it's compensations 😊
Brilliant 😂 Thoroughly enjoyed reading this!!! 😂 Minus #4 and the yearly trauma December brings... 😥 Thanks for the Christmas joy you bring through your writing!! 🙏
I have whiplash from laughing then crying then laughing again. I’m a total emo around Christmas time and v much appreciated this duality. I’m hoping your holiday scaries were a little less antagonizing this year — thank you for this glorious read and MERRY CHRISTMAS 🎄 👞
Hey--don't worry, Alex. Burnt chicken is not as bad as asking for Creepy Crawlers or Fashion Plates on two separate Christmases, but never getting neither!
OTOH, good cookies, bright, colorful Christmas lights, and receiving memorable gifts like Perfection and Superfection (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zBnorlaxj84) in one Christmas are much better. And also, singing along to Christmas songs on the radio.

Every festive season since has been a blessing :) Merry Christmas right back, you wonderful human!!!
You had me at wrapping on shoe… If humor is borne of awkwardness, you get high marks. Merry Christmas!
Will, I hope you get as many of your own shoes as possible this, and every, year.

Merry Christmas! I hope it’s filled with Apple devices displaying the best adult videos a man could want and a wife (or monkey) who knows how to knock
Wise words. Here's to the best wives (and monkeys).
