Xmas in hindsight

[Bender]

So what happened to the no pigs in blankets  and empty shelves at Xmas, shortages of turkeys? MnS had stuff on sale 2days before crimbo. Tesco was awash with crimbo crap

We had pigs in blankets. Lots of them. 

 

The fun bit was when the central heating failed. It turned out our 9 month old granddaughter had got hold of the control unit and reprogrammed it.

It's called overtime and all the truckers are minted

Hope you had a 2yr old on hand to reprogram it

No, there was no one to slaughter pigs, no one to do the complicated and highly technical Job of cutting bacon and wrapping it around the sausage.

Yep, we had the full swag of all the food and drink we'd like and normal presents etc. Gloom and doom there was none. At least for today. 

Tomorrow is youngest grandchild's first birthday so another good day tomorrow.

My trousers have mysteriously shrunk overnight. They weren't this tight yesterday.
