Post-Christmas (or Christmas post, if you prefer?) December 30, 2006

What a funny old Crimbly. Funny good but, you know, not the usual sort. Unconventional it was (did that sound like Yoda?!) without the Gruesome Twosome. So, in back-to-front jolly humbug thinking, here are some of the things I thankfully haven’t done (yet) this year:

  • Felt very sick after suppers consisting of party-sized quiches, smoked salmon and my own body weight in Baileys
  • Popped my hand up a turkey’s behind
  • Felt the need to hang myself with tinsel
  • Engaged in any traditionally compulsory Yuletide arguments

Instead, I slept almost ten hours a night, swigged champagne for breakfast and sipped tea in silence with lovely bf mid-afternoon while engrossed in our books.

‘Oh my God, how old are we?’ we chortled. But it was cool. And we wore our pyjamas the whole time. Except during the dog-walking interlude: we can do dignity and decorum when we get the urge. We wear waterproofs over the top. We’re so swish.

Wishing you belated festive jollification and a sky full of stars. And some seriously good snogs, if you haven’t had your Crimbly Quota yet.
