And so it starts..

Turkey cooked through the night, Goose in the oven as I type.
Pigs in blankets about to head into the oven, vegetables all ready to go, (almost) everyone chillaxing nicely with various drinkies.
Mini-grandchild SB failing to see what all the fuss is about over this, her first christmas. FIL trying to fathom out his new mini-camcorder. MIL hoovering Bristol Cream like a sailor on shore leave, Mrs SB swanning round the kitchen leaving a heady trail of freshly acquired "Pure Poison".
SB06 sheepishly awaiting the return of the 2 rozzers that brought him home last night after catching him wazzing in a doorway after being on the lash all day. £80 Fixed Penalty Notice for him, and serves him right, dozy little scrote!!
SB enviously eyeing his burgeoning Malt Whisky collection, unable to get wired in as he is "on call" till New Years Eve!!
Ah yes................Christmas.............you can't beat it!

Family/In-law christmas is here.

Two sister-in-laws both in high powered corporate management jobs attempting to jockey for position on how Xmas today should be organised for the kids!

Do they open their stockings on their own or do they wait? Do they get dressed first? What is the shower roster? Do they open some presents first? Breakfast first? Champagne first?

The father in law - ex MD of a large Corp. Oh we do this way/we should organise it that way.

Another family member already pissed and started an argument.

Me. Lets just play it by ear, after all it is everyones Xmas.

Where's the icon?
