Hello all you lovely people! Thought I would write a quick post to wish you all a very Happy Christmas!

Ok ok, I know it’s Boxing Day, but I am still definitely in the Christmas mood. Yesterday was a lovely day as I spend the morning at home, walking the dog and opening presents with M, in the afternoon we had lunch out at a local hotel and then yesterday evening we went over to Grappenhall to see M’s family.

Christmas isn’t always easy and I am sure tensions happen in every family, not just mine, but as it happens, yesterday was lovely.

I was mega impressed with the Christmas meal at the Holiday Inn in Haydock, nothing was rushed, the food was lovely and the staff were just fantastic! Loved it all.

I was lucky enough to get lots of lovely things from my loved ones for Christmas as I got an Apple Watch, a few lovely candles and LOTS of cool beauty bits an bobs – I am a very lucky girl!

Today is Boxing Day in the UK, which is another bank holiday and for us means M has been for a run this morning with his running group, we are chilling for a bit this afternoon and then going out to M’s parents later for tea and then quickly back home so M can watch the match.

The Christmas period is usually the only time M and I have a full 2 weeks off work. I finished on the 20th December and I am not going back until the 6th December. Utter bliss!

I am hoping to make use of our National Trust Memberships whilst we are off and even though Daisy Dog is still only has the energy of a hung-over slug, we are going to do our best to get her to some new places!

Happy Boxing Day Everyone, lots of love from my house to yours
