Spending Christmas alone

[Sadoldbag]

Hi we are in the west London area and if any one is spending Christmas alone please inbox me we have a place at our dinner table

No one should spend Christmas alone

Xxxx

You are kind, well done

How lovely :)

Do you have any elderly neighbours locally who may be alone?

or neighbours in general of course, I was just thinking that elderly people often end up alone at christmas

Not really already posted this on my Facebook page last week most people have things sorted or feel awkward in asking to come round

But you never know I spent many years on my lonesome for many a Christmas and it's no fun at all

Its lovely that you are putting the offer out there.

We offered for an elderly friend but she refused as she wants to be alone this year, so we have made her some mince pies and shortbread instead.

Bless you, how sweet.

Why not pop round and see your friend after lunch or something. I'm sure even a brief visit would be lovely x

You are lovely. If I were in your part of the country I'dbe taking you up on that very kind offer. I'll be on my own on Christmas day.

Ilove where are you? Perhaps there is another MNer in your area who you could spend the day with?

SOB, what a charitable gesture. Might be too late for this year but Contact the Elderly would be able to place you with a local elderly person for the day.

Oh please don't get me wrong I now have a lovely large family

But would like to pay it forward as they say

We have a spare space at out table do thought why not oh thinks I am mad/lovely at the same time lol

That so kind, i am in west London, could i just send my teenagers round to you, they are driving me mad..

Yanbunseasonable

I would also extend that offer to any one in the midlothian area. We are having a single mums Christmas! No one should feel isolated at Christmas.

To me that is what Christmas is about.

How lovely.

DH's grandad will be alone this Christmas. It is all his chosing though. This year he really doesn't want to spend it with others, he has decided. He will see PILs Christmas Eve and Boing Day but is insistent he doesn't want to do Christmas Day at all.

Very kind OP.

What a lovely thing to do always nice to see some true christmas spirit.

We're having a couple of foreign students who we've never met (and I don't know if they've met each other!) Perhaps you could contact a local uni to see if anyone will be alone.

Ahh, that is lovely I'm not near you, but will be on my own this year as the DC are with their dad who waits until Xmas to play at being dad .

And agreed - you should change your user name!

That brought a tear to my eye, SOB!

An how lovely sob is it bad I though sob stood for son of a b**ch before I read back agree you should name change.so charitable of you and good on you for thinking of others.

OP- what a lovely person you are, doubly so because you are reminding us of the true spirit of christmas.

What a lovely gesture and it is wonderful that you are prepared to be so generous when some people become insular and more selfish than normal.
