Had a really nice 23rd December both of my sisters, and Maggie, who is an adopted sister, were with me. Maggie celebrating the arrival of her first grandchild, a boy named Bryn. Can't believe she is old enough to have a grandchild. Sister 2 and I told sister 1 and Maggie that they could sit and talk knitting together as Grannies and we would drink the champagne for them!

Just want to wish everyone a very happy Christmas. We went to the midnight Eucharist at Holy Cross last night I served and assisted with Chalice too which was lovely. A nice start to the Day. Number 2 sister came and daughter number 2 came along with her friend too which was a nice surprise. I came out of the service to go for coffee and mince pies to find 3 texts from India which was nice too, they'd been having their Christmas Day early morning service at 4.30am! Wonder how many we'd get to turn up at that time!

I've had some fab presents and can't wait to get into reading some of the books I got, Dawn French, Ian Rankin, to mention but 2. lovely smellies and clothes too, you won't recognise the new fabulous looking Sally when next you meet her!

Tiem to get stuck into the final lunch preparations now, so once again Happy Christmas to all who read this.
