Nice to see you and everyone else back on here, trikyauto. I hope you had a lovely Christmas Day! I missed you when I was posting earlier. I guess everyone was too busy with their family festivities so I ended up being the only one posting on here.

I know what you mean, triky. In the afternoon we went to visit my cousin and collect our mail at the same time. We couldn't help noticing that everything we passed by was closed, even petrol stations. So I just hope no-one runs out of fuel on Christmas Day!

Amongst the mail was the log book for the new car. I only completed the purchase of the car on Thursday so I was surprised to get it so quickly!

It was socks, sailing gloves ( lost the last pair) and a toblerone for me! From Santainnocent

That seems familiar, robsail. I remember how Christmas presents always used to be socks and handkerchieves. We broke that tradition by treating ourselves to a new car this Christmas! With the roads empty on Christmas Day, it was a pleasure to drive it! A bit too big to fit under the Christmas tree though!

Peace and goodwill to all

I'll second that, Oneputt. We certainly had a very peaceful Christmas Day with no family to visit us! It was just the two of us! We visited my cousin in the afternoon and he was on his own too with just the tv for company. So it was nice to see him and have a chat. We didn't stay too long as we wanted to get back to the caravan before it got dark. I'd had enough of driving in darkness when at work. Nice to see daylight and scenery for a change!

I think Malcolm is just filling in a gap during a quiet spell on the forum, Triky.

Anyway, Merry Christmas!

Where did you have Christmas lunch on the lovely Isle of White?

Posted on 26/12/2016 04:20

Well yes, Ian. It was a bit lonely on here earlier!

Like hundreds of thousands going to a hunt. There may be a few DOZEN antis about.

We thought it was great and appreciated the humour in it. Perhaps it;s a northern thing. Maggie Smith was brilliant!! Definitely a film I'd watch again, and I'm not a film type of person.

No NTH, couldn't have been a 'Northern Thing' as we thought it was really funny too.  I thought that the book managed to get the humour over better than the film though.....
