Well there’s 2. We all get together at Christmas. Sister and brother-in-law live in the USA so we don’t see them very often. Reminds of the years when there were 13 of us all for Christmas dinner at my grandparents house which meant we had dinner in 2 sittings. Also if you didn’t arrive at the same time, we had to wait for the other presents until after dinner. My second one is I ALWAYS get a book at Christmas. Used to get an annual every year but still the tradition is kept up by my parents now.

we always follow the superstition to eat as many mince pies as possible through Christmas eve and christmas day (Not too many before our wonderful dinner though) , because the number you eat determines how much luck you will have in the next year.You musnt t cut them with a knife either but bite into them or you will cut your luck.! we bake loads and eat loads!!!
I love the shopping trip I do every Christmas Eve – I go somewhere I wouldn’t normally, admire the lights and soak up the atmosphere, do my last minute shopping, have lunch out and then head home to wrap the last minute bits 🙂
