Christmas of 2020

Christmas Day was lovely. Ally and Davie (back home for his permitted one day of Christmas with family) came through to our room and opened their Santa stockings and it turned out that Santa had left a stocking for James and me too! Then we FaceTimed Jamie in New Zealand and were introduced to his new girlfriend, Kerry. She is lovely. 

Marjory, Forrest and family arrived round late morning and we exchanged gifts and chatted and had drinks and snacks. We had our Christmas dinner just after watching the Queen’s Speech at 3 p.m. and there was more than plenty! Then we all watched a Disney film called Coco (meh, not my cup of tea but nice to watch it together) and then Ally and Davie and I played a board game, Ticket to Ride, which was great fun. 

In other words, a traditional Anderson Christmas, for which I fell suitably grateful in this strange year of 2020 when so much has changed in our pandemic ridden world.
