Merry Christmas all. Have a great day, and a Happy New Year. You're a "model" bunch; keep it up!

Whatever you think about Christmas, it's a time to put on a brave face and enjoy family and friends.....I am just content to still be on the planet to be with them!

I wish you all a Merry Christmas.

...and a special thanks to John our skipper. Ian and the mods. for all their patients and understanding when sometimes things went off on a bit of tangent.

Thank you boys.

Thanks for the fun and banter over the year, nice to see new members joining in .
To those of you who enjoy Christmas have a great time, now all the family are up and gone it's no longer a big deal for us .
May 2023 be one of health and happiness to all .

Have fun, and spare a thought for those who have to work. There are more of them than you think.

My son in law has to work - the animals in Chester Zoo still need care. My daughter is also a keeper at the zoo and she has to work Boxing Day. Luckily they are both off on the 28th so we'll get together then for a belated Christmas Day.

Merry Christmas Everyone!! This has to be the best Christmas in 25 years I get 5 days off with pay well only 3 I was so blessed this pass 5 months with Both of my new jobs. If you don’t enjoy Christmas switch to just enjoying Life at least your still reading this. Some can’t see at all.

Merry Christmas everyone,
we shut down between Christmas and New Year so no working for me these days, used to work Christmas Day in the past, but only had to go in for 2 hours to check equipment was running properly. Used to do that first thing and be home before the rest of the family were up.

A Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to everybody (grinches included). To those who do not celebrate this particular festival I would like to say Happy Holidays.

Christmas period is great but bl--dy expensive! Wedding Anniversary today, Vehicle tax by the 31st, MOT last week, In-laws descending again (shouldn't be such a good cook and convivial host I'm told), several family birthdays throughout the period, car insurance by 31st, New Year Bacchanalia, and Kate's birthday on the 15th of January :tears-of-joy: ! Fortunately, the stash and wine cellar are well re-plenned and I have a proven ability to live on left-overs! I'm not complaining really but I do feel deeply sorry for those in less fortunate circumstances and try to help if we can :anguished:

I don't do Christmas now, 12 years in the army always away or doing palace duties, and 30 years on the road arriving home xmas eve then out again Boxing Day has taken the edge out of it.
BUT A HAPPY CHRISTMAS TO YOU ALL - said loud for the benefit of the hard of hearing.
