Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

We will be at home, joined by Mrs D’s mum. I hope to get out for a walk at some point, but Christmas dinner is the main part of the day, along with playing a game or two and avoiding tv.

I have never watched a Queen’s Speech, and don’t expect I ever will.

First Christmas for me without my Mum also which is hard. Also Mini at his Dad's until 5pm and first time a single lady in almost 30 years! Thankfully there is parkrun and lunch at my sister's house to look forward to, where there will be kids and puppies!

I'll be hosting a gentle "pensioners" Christmas Day this year, the exception being GimmeMedals. Son (policeman) is working Christmas Day so daughter has decided to go to her boyfriend's and have Christmas with us when her brother can also be there. So it'll be a quiet, refined affair with my dad, sister and brother-in-law.

We'll be at home, but for only the second time in 44 years, I won't be spending it with my sister. I'm sure we'll facetime though. SweetPea has asked for a keyboard (musical, not qwerty) and Marigold wants high heeled boots* I'll be cooking.

*anything other than flat constitutes as high, so we're not talking 6 inch killer stilettos!

We’re not hosting this year and are heading to my OH’s mum’s for a Christmas Dinner around 4ish. Which means hopefully we’ll either go for a bike ride or a walk - weather-permitting before stuffing our faces.

If anyone is strapped for cash for buying xmas presents for men/boys... you can do what I did when I was a poor student:

Get a shoebox.
Put a typed note inside saying "Action Man Deserter"
Wrap it up and give it your brother
