Diane, myself, our three kids (two returning home for the day) four dogs, six chickens, a cracking meal and a walk around the local parks with the dogs. Happy day!

I don't know at the moment! Alex and I are supposed to be spending Christmas with his parents and sister in Dumfries, while my mum goes to my sister for lunch and to spend a few hours on Christmas day. But, I am worried about leaving her to cope with the animals if we still have weather like this! It is difficult enough just now and that's with 3 of us helping!

My sister is expecting a baby girl (due tomorrow according to the doctors- due next week according to my sister), so we are going to see them on Boxing day. Will be nice to have a new baby neice (the fifth one!).

My sister, her OH and son are over from Australia.  There will be 14 people at mine on Christmas day including my parents and hubby's family.  Hope there will be enough of our home grown turkey to go round.  :yum:

As much as I love the help around the place from my dedicated employees - I am looking forward to a Christmas at home with my lovely girlfriend just milling around and doing the normal day to day things with the animals.

I am also looking forward to having most of the downstairs of the house complete - a bathroom and kitchen would be a dream!!
