I feel wildly out of control this year. I still need to:

Shop for some last minute gifts although most of the main ones are sorted now.

Post cards to relatives (hoping they will get there by early next week if I post Thursday at latest).

Arrange postal gift for friends dc who is 3 on Christmas Day.

Post local cards through letterboxes.

The full food shop! Only got nibbles, turkey and ham so far.

About 50% of wrapping still left to do.

A big Christmas clean and tidy before people arrive on Christmas Day.

All of this while working (up until 23rd), usual chores and dealing with the kids numerous christmas plans.

God it looks worse now I’ve written it down.

@Elsvieta buy schemes regular tonic and throw
in a slice of lemon! It’s naturally very lemony.

Yeah, starting to think the relative who mentioned the delicious cocktail she had somewhere (which I'm trying to recreate) was mistaken in thinking it had "lemon tonic" - must have just been normal tonic and actual lemon. Regular Schweppes and a few lemons it is!

Fever tree and M&S both do Sicilian lemon tonic water.
