And so it's been Christmas...

...and what have I done?

Well, eaten a lot, drunk a lot, watched a lot of telly and slept very little.

Now that's the life, haha.

Ok, so it is a few days after Christmas (and it'll soon be time to start writing up this annual review that I'm pressing myself to do for some random reason) but I suppose it's still within the festive time and therefore not too late to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas!!!

I know my Christmas day consisted of playing happy families around a coal/wrapping paper-fueled fire place whilst testing everyone's general knowledge with a couple of quiz rounds, and an additional game of Charades (not the first aid version, sadly) and "Just Keep Humming" where (you may have guessed it) you keep humming a tune until someone names it right.
It all sounds very traditional when you see it written down, but believe me, it was fiery thanks to my highly competitive - and very entertaining and possibly slightly alcohol-fueled - uncle, who made sure he won the final round in the end.

Boxing day was something slightly different, with a meal round at the RC boss' place with a few other first aid folkies. Once again, it was the whole concept of eat, drink and be merry whilst having heated debates over the state of drivers on the roads today. I love get-togethers with the old first aid crew =]
Of course, they're more than first aiders; they're some of the greatest mates anyone could ever wish for. A family of sorts, not by blood but by friendship. Ah, it's the drink - it's making me soppy...

Anyhoo, once again, Happy Holidays folks. Will post again in the New Year, this time possibly before or on the 31st, and not several days after at twenty-five minutes past midnight.
