Sorry TheCountess. Have I promoted you within the aristocracy?

Yes. I am flattered!

Lovely snow scenes, SoMuch, thank you!

SoMuchToBits · 17/12/2020 21:40

Ah, welcome Waspnest! And thank you Countess for the recommendation to Waspnest. Smile

Sadly work continued to be very stressful today, but I now have 2 days off.

It's lovely to be back. I think I was on part 1 but was completely unaware of parts 2 and 3 so I shall catch up over the weekend.

Don't stress over doing pictures, do whatever helps you to relax (unless of course that is how you relax?!)

I thought of you the other week when Playmobil was on offer in LIDL Grin

The snow pictures are lovely SoMuch. 🙂 Enjoy your days off, are you working over Christmas?

SoMuchToBits · 18/12/2020 08:57

Thank you. Yes, I'm working all day Christmas Day. But have Christmas Eve and Boxing Day off.

Will you have your Christmas Dinner with DS when you get home or are you having it another day?

SoMuchToBits · 18/12/2020 14:30

We'll be having it Boxing Day. My sister and a friend should be coming to stay (they both live alone and that will be our 3 household bubble). So ds will sort meals on Christmas Day (a lot of it I have already made and is in the freezer), and we will eat that evening after I get home. But not worth doing Christmas dinner that evening, as ds would have to cook it all (not that he'd mind) and I'm never very hungry when I get home.

Yes, it will be much more enjoyable on BD. 🙂
My sister is working all over Christmas inc Christmas Day, so will probably do similar to you and have it another day.

SoMuchToBits · 18/12/2020 16:15

Yes, we'll probably exchange our presents on the evening of Christmas Day, but better to have the lunch on Boxing Day.

Today Norman is hosting an outdoor socially distanced drinks reception for key workers, to thank them for all their hard work this year. Arrival times have been staggered to avoid overcrowding. Police officers Bethany and Brandon and fire officers Helen and Adam have arrived.

How lovely to see Norman again.

Ken offers more blue wine to dock workers Martin and Alex, while bus driver Giles and Toby the taxi driver prefer white wine.

Norman chats to pharmacist Matthew, postwoman Beverley and bin man Jake. He is very grateful to all of them.

Norman is very generous and obviously takes his responsibilities to heart.

SoMuchToBits · 19/12/2020 16:10

Just to let you know, these are the last photos before Christmas, as I'll be working tomorrow, Monday and Wednesday and need Tuesday to get everything else done before Christmas. But I'll hope to add some more in the New Year. Smile

That was delightful SoMuch - keyworkers Xmas party could not be more perfect as a way to round of Playmobil pandemic year! So nice to see them all being thanked and drinking blue wine.
Have a lovely Christmas with your ds and I hope it isn’t too bad at work x
