Re: Merry Christmas folks
Deepest sympathies Adam. And I know your pain too. We lost my wife's mother on the 22nd Dec 4 years ago, 5 days before our son's wedding... painful times, and tough times too. Don't forget to make some time for yourself - its bloody hard work trying to keep everyone together when you're hurting too. Remember to smile for what you had, don't spend too much time crying for what you lost.
A New Year is just around the corner - enjoy!

Re: Merry Christmas folks
I don't think I've properly processed losing my Mum a few months ago yet. Now it's like my brain is unable to take in that we've lost my Wife's Mum too. We're off to their family home tomorrow though. Trying to have a Christmas part two for the kids with relatives down in Cornwall. Keeping everything festive for them really helps. That and a good haul of cheese, chocolate and snacks that everyone gave each other. Presents this year are very foody. Also... left overs. Does anyone else prefer left overs to the actual main event meals? Mmmmm...

Re: Merry Christmas folks
We normally have another christmas dinner on new years day + make all sorts of pies and pasta bakes with the rest.
Previous years I've had turkey right up towards October |

Re: Merry Christmas folks
I made a turkey curry two nights ago. I've still got enough left for another meal. Our problem is cheese, we're swimming in the stuff, as we bought more than usual and then my sister bought us a shed load too.

Re: Merry Christmas folks
I've spent the last few days decorating the bathroom. The wife is away visiting family so I'm taking advantage of the time when she's not in there twice a day filling it with steam.
