Christmas, and things of that nature

supertinksWell Christmas was the usual months-of-build-up-with-no-real-climax that it always is.
I didn't go anywhere, didn't spend it with anyone other than Jamie and Fidget, and it was very pleasant.
Andy went home, so it was just us. We stayed up late on Christmas Eve to open our presents, build Fidget's present (I got him one of those climbing fame cat scratching post things) and generally have fun. On Christmas Day we lazed about, had a champagne breakfast, watched TV, played Arkham Horror (one of my presents from Jamie), ate an awesome duck roast and some cake. Watched lots of Family Guy, special Christmas Doctor Who and the Strictly come Dancing special.
I was blonde (well, gingery blonde) for most of Christmas Day, but then I went red. Scarlet Power in fact, as yesterday we drove to Swansea for some Boxing Day rugby action - Ospreys vs Scarlets. We took Jamie's family with us, as a concession to us not spending Christmas with them. Which meant spending some time with them first, and a turkey/ham dinner for lunch, which was very nice. The rugby itself was a very good game, even though the Scarlets lost 50-24. Everyone had a nice time. Trouble is, the drive really knackered us out, so even though it was only 10pm when we got home, we were practically asleep in the car!
Today has been a lazy day, as we are both too tired to do anything! Just tidying up after Christmas, although we did go out shopping. I now have a new pair of brown trainers, and a new all-in-one printer/scanner/copier which is awesome. We've just finished setting it up and have been playing with it, printing off photos. The quality is very very good, I am very impressed!
Am very glad I booked today off work!
