Many will hold true to the maxim that there are too many repeats on TV at Christmas in the UK. However we're going for something slightly different this year.
Last year was our first real Christmas together. The previous Christmas FW's mum had had a major stroke the weekend before and FW spent the Christmas hols with her family and I spent them with mine, with only a few days together in between.
To celebreate last year, FW spent the week before Christmas with a cold but receovered to enjoy the festivities. To make up for this I spent Boxing Day onwards in bed with her cold while she, at my insistence, went to spend a few days with her family as originally planned.
At present FW been spending the last 2 days in bed making URGH noises and feeling sorry for herself - she has a cold. Do you see a trend forming here? I've just taken a few panadol to try to drive off the headache I've had since yesterday evening. I also woke up this morning with a sore throat, stage 1 of the lurgy.
I'm therefore expecting that this year may follow the same pattern as last year. Personally I just want to survive Christmas Day unscathed. I don't care what happens after.
