We had a brilliant time at our Craft Group Christmas Get Together. We chatted*, and ate festive food and played games - and Janet taught us to make Macrame trees.
After lunch I sorted out the freezer food, and made a sensible shopping list.
We watched the final episode of Wolf Hall on Sunday night. I wasn't quite sure about the end... I must check the book again.
George was a sheep in his school nativity play yesterday, and remembered his line. I'm very proud of him for overcoming his shyness, I'm so pleased his Mum and Dad were able to go and watch the production. I sometimes feel there's a lot of pressure put on the youngest children in school.
It's only "eight more sleeps"and I'm not convinced I'll be fully organised for the 25th, but if things don't get done, that doesn't matter.
*one person asked us not to say who had won Strictly as they had yet to watch the final on iPlayer. How had they managed to avoid finding out for 36 hours? I don't usually watch the show, but I saw the last 10 minutes on Saturday night, and was very happy about the result.
Oh me oh my only eight more sleeps! (I'd never heard that expression until I started teaching in infant schools.) Well done George. My favourite Christmas video every year is the Flint street nativity. Gets me every time.

DeleteGoodness. We heard the results of Strictly almost immediately even here in New Zealand! Margaret
ReplyDeleteI hope you were happy with the result too
DeleteWell done George! I think I'm organised them somebody asks for my time to help out and it's back to square one! Also the pile of presents waiting to be wrapped gives me the chills!
ReplyDeleteI had thought I'd wrap whilst watching "Strike" last night. But I made a cup of tea just as it started, sat down to drink the tea first... then woke up as the programme was finishing!
DeletePs watched Strictly and loved the result. Also Wolf Hall which end result wasn't so joyful! Hard to relate Mark Rylance's wonderful portrayal as Cromwell to his voice as Bing!
ReplyDeleteCan recommend MR in "Outfit" and "Phantom of the open" - such diverse roles, evidence of his amazing acting skill. There are too many people on screen who can only play one character - his range is so wide.
