I'M AT MOTHER HUBBARD'S. EVERYONE ELSE HAS GONE DOWN THE PUB so I get the chance to sneak quickly on this machine.
Dinner's still a-roastin' in the kitchen. Everyone's sober. The Queen's speech isn't on for three quarters of an hour. And the weather outside is really pigstrotterly. All mizzly and drizzly and white-sky'd and soggy.
I'm so glad not to be at "home" with Matran and Laundretta. Something one of them did (or their "friends" involved hammering and hollering at the front door at three AM the other night. Eventually breaking the door open (which isn't that difficult it's been kicked in, broken in, charged in so many times it's used to it now. You just practically have to sneeze on the doorstep and the door springs open in instant surrender...) Then a huge fracas broke out in the hall with a man raging and a strange woman shouting... Next morning the fire alarm was almost broken off the wall. But Laundretta pleaded ignorance.
It's lovely and warm here, even though I don't think the heating's on. I had better go ...
... next time I will tell you about the scandalous dog thief allegation levelled at me last time I went down the shops.
Hope you're having a merry one everyone. If it's not merry I hope it's tolerable. And if it's not even tolerable then I hope you are at least surviving!
Take care!

It sounds nicely warm and appealing to be tucked away at a place called Mother Hubbard's while dinner is being prepared. It has the makings of a joyous holiday feeling to me. Wishing you nothing less.

ReplyDeleteI'm not doing much this Christmas...very quiet - just me and a bottle of Bailey's to mix with my coffee.
First Christmas without my Mom....weird.
Hope you're having a nice time. Tolerable. Surviving it at least. I'd say that's what I'm doing. My ex was here this morning and was a JERK.
He always ruined holidays so I don't see why this should be any different.
Now on your side of the pond I suppose it's time to say, Happy Boxing Day.
ReplyDeleteMANY THANKS FOR THE GOOD WISHES EVERYONE....
ReplyDeleteDEBS I THINK YOU ARE BETTER OFF WITHOUT HIM !!
