It was a busier Christmas day than usual. Father Christmas brought me a stocking! That was an excellent surprise. I went to the cathedral again, and enjoyed the choir singing Haydn's St Nicholas Mass with full orchestra, while the others went to Salisbury Methodist Church as usual. Then we did presents (yes, before lunch! Shocking!). I was very pleased with my haul. Lunch was fantastic, of course. We enjoyed smoked salmon from Andy Race of Mallaig for our starter, before turkey with everything, and Christmas pudding with some 1984 Rivesaltes that I bought in June. Then after lunch mum drove us all up to London for Christmas part two at Andrew and gang's house. There was another excellent presents session, followed by lots of playing with those presents (photo of the general scene at 18.37). Then food again, more play and chat, and then I settled down to watch England destroy Australia in Melbourne. A wonderful Christmas!
I hope you all had wonderful Christmasses too, wherever you spent them. Happy Christmas from me.
