Christmas Day Number 1
I went to Slough on Saturday to have Christmas with my mum, sisters, brother, neices and nephew plus others. Had a lovely day and came back with arm-fulls or prezzies including perfume, a big wicker basket filled with toiletries, jewellery, Torchwood Calender, and the most beautiful fairy ornament from my mum. All the kids seemed to like the prezzies I bought them and it was lovely to watch them open and play with them.
The best part of the day was actually the car journey home. Me, my mum and my 5-year-old niece were crammed into the back seat and little S insisted on playing eye-spy, hide the pony, and the Christmas tree game all the way home. We were certainly glad to hide the clippety-clopping, madly neighing pony and what a shame that Mum and I hid it and then somehow accidentally forgot where we put it. Such a shame. Anyway, we had a great time and laughed until we cried most of the way home. I won the Christmas tree game.
When I got back, I discovered that my PS3 had been delivered and Grandad (not wanting to subject me to any sort of cruelty) had unpacked it so I could have it before Christmas. Very generous. Nothing at all to do with his keenness to see it in action, lol. Anyway, it's brilliant and I'm totally addicted to Little Big Planet. At least I would be if I actually got to play it. Had a migraine all day Sunday and worked late today, plus have been shopping, wrapping more presents, cooking, and nattering on the phone. It's a hard life :oD
