*insert obligitory 'Merry Christmas' post here*
Although we decided this morning that this was definitely the 'bah, humbug' family, I'm actually quite cheerful. I've already managed to be told off for eating too much and to watch a couple of really naff films (or parts thereof, anyhow), so I feel I've done most of my Christmas duty; it just remains to go and be scared by my cousins. (The Christmas service at church actually managed to be good, which was an amazing feat. We dropped the 'show everyone your presents' bit, which I hate with the passion of a thousand firey suns (what about the kids who don't have expensive stuff, huh?), so that improved things immeasurably.)
I seem to like mince pies more this year.
(Our first song was 'Angels From The Realms Of Glory', which *we sung at
vililee's*. This pleased me.)
