This years slightly different, wake up go down to the fruit bar get a mango smoothie, or a singha, on beach for a swim , snorkelling, then a lobster , pennang curry, pineapple rice,grilled pork , garlic prawns, more beer, look at all the birds on the beach which are very nice I must add. Then we’re off deep sea fishing for sail fish. Return to eat more food with live band.

We are too old for all that Fccucking  nonsense and would be happier calling it by it's real name MISERY  and for people  who crave Snow at this time of the year should have their tree pushed up their arses  complete with Lights and Candles ........ preferably  lit .

Well I wish it could be Christmas every day ay ayyy!!

I find it great, just sitting in a cafe with a cup of tea sometimes, this time of year, watching people bustling about, panicking, stressing about what they've bought, who they've forgot to buy for etc etc lol.

I get a smug, warm, glowy feeling, knowing that I've had it all in order before october!!

I never buy anything for anyone  but about the only thing  i do enjoy is when there is four or five grandkids sniffing around me thinking they may cop summat  i say who likes Chocolate ? of course they all say yes  so i cut a single square of chocolate up and give them a piece each,  makes memories  for them i think .

I think what a tight old Cnut grandad is would be what they would take away from that experience as opposed to fond memory’s

Just because it's Christmas, some folks still need to be cared for, they Dunna stop needing care even at this time of year, my daughter is a carer in the community, so she will be working over Christmas , so Christmas Eve, she is coming to stay with me, ok I only have a one bedroomed flat, goes without saying, settee will do fer me, I shall be making her a good breakfast Christmas morning, then she will be off to work, then back mine for Christmas dinner, she has not long been to visit me, the presents she has bought be, stacks of em, I'm bound to say this , cos she's my daughter , but I'm so proud of her and the way she's turned out in life ,I'd had enough when my two wives passed, she's given me a reason to live ,I Dunna want sympathy from anyone, .certainly not an attention seekers, not many years back, I had no worries life was great, next min, bang, moral of this little outburst, Live each day as your last,. Merry Christmas to you.all

I'll get home about 04:45, walk the dogs up the back fields for a while, hit my pit and get up about 13:00, bit of lunch with the Mrs. Then walk dogs for an hour then go to work again. 

Cheers, D.
