On the BBC:

"Don't buy a turkey that is too big for your oven" doh:

Given my current predicament that isn't so stupid.  redface:

MILFH hasn't defrosted hers fully either.  redface:

Ours is just about done. The pork is done as well.

The only problem is that my sister has decided to use her time-table and will be arriving later than what was agreed - only found out this morning when cooking had commenced, my dad called and told me what time they were picking him up.

Also dreading my sister getting maudlin about our mums death earlier this year, the day could go very pear-shaped.

Up at 06.30 ~ oh the joys of small boys.
So far this Christmas day I have used 16 AA batteries, 10 AAA batteries and 12 C Batteries. Good job I bought a load in readiness. ::)
The children are thrilled with their Wii but all pissed off that the old man has thrashed them all at 10 pin bowling (maybe after I have had a drink or two I'll confess that I used to be a semi pro at the game  whistle:)
I have received an excellent (I know because I created the Amazon wish list) selection of books and CDs.
SWBO is pleased with all her gifts and those I purchased fit her perfectly  angel1 (Several nookie points there I feel).
Lunch is on course for 2.30.
In Laws have all phoned in and all is well.

Merry Christmas.
I used to have a handle on life but it broke.

the day could go very pear-shaped.

Mine has. Well in all fairness it did started going tits up yesterday afternoon following a 'litle incident/accident' involving a 'horse play' moment involving Growler jnr and a 10 year old girl that all spirraled and went horribly wrong. eeek:
I'm currently sitting on the edge of my seat waiting for the possible fallout from the mother of the girl involved. No angry and compo demanding phone calls YET.

Mrs G didn't help my already thouroughly depressed mood this morning by getting the presents mixed up.
Growler jnr opened up the Wii hand control before the actual console. ::)
"But we haven't got a Wii" they both exclaimed.

Give me strength. ::)
