Christmas with the parents

I have come to my Mam and stepdad's bungalow for the Christmas and New Year holiday period. We have come early because the weather stations have been predicting very heavy snow and freezing nighttime conditions, so we have arrived a few days early, but better for it!

Roy, Katie and his three kids have come down for the festive period as well, and it will be the first time ever that our Roy has spent his birthday away from our hometown - his Christmas Day birthday will be a different one after 35 years! We have also brought my great-nephew Ricky, but after just two days he is bored and is going to make arranagments to go back home to Kirkby for the holiday period, where all his family and friends are - waste of time him coming down really!

I haven't spent many Christmases here at my Mam and Mac's so I am really looking forward to having this break down here on the very chilly and cold East Coast!
