A Sunnyside Christmas

This moment has been long awaited by many.  Not only have the children been counting down the days for the past month, but for some years we have longed for a time when we could relieve our parents of hosting the Christmas day celebrations.  In fact, it has been mentioned that our grandmothers had long since passed on the baton at the age our dear mothers are now, but time has now been called, as we finally have a house large enough to seat more than one man and his dog.  A happy day, with enough turkey to feed an army, oodles of presents, a wade through the woods (courtesy of the unrelenting rain on Christmas Eve leaving much of Tonbridge several feet under water), and then up to Aunty Daph and Uncle John's farm for a game of "Tippit".  What could be better?  Merry Christmas everyone!
