Woke up too early like half four got up at eight prepared the turkey crown and gammon joint peeled the white and sweet potatoes parsnips made the Yorkshire puddings whilst having a glass or two of port , no cigar.
Text loads of old friends and family checked Facebook and remembered Mum and Dad specially when Bing,s white Christmas came on the radio reminiscing of Christmas,s past when I was a lad we always had a box of dates Turkish delight and figs and nuts loads of satsuma's in tissue paper.
Dad would have a bottle of lemon hart rum and Mum a bottle of Harvey Bristol cream and a case of babycham ,we would have a tin full of home baked mince pies and a Christmas cake full of sherry and spirits with marzipan , there would always be after eight mints and matchmakers in mint and orange and our dinner would always be turkey but it would be a full bird the wings and legs would always be dried out and we never really eat them .The table would be extended fully chairs borrowed and there be christmas crackers ready to be pulled .
Now its all iPads , iPhone ,face book , text messages , sky TV and computer games thank god
