We have the turkey in the fridge
and the Christmas pudding in the supermarket bag
and the Brussels sprouts lurking
and the Fortnum & Masons chocolates for old times sake
and the Christmas cake is marzipanned (icing soonish)
and the tree is brought in from the cold
(where it has been for the past 10 days)
and the presents are stacked near the wrapping paper
and the sellotape has been seen recently
and the cards have been posted just-in-time
and the visa has arrived.
It is time to break out the snowflake jumpers
and enjoy Christmas together.
I wish you all a wonderful time
with your families.
Thank you for your friendship this year.
