Happy Christmas wishes...sort of

Well, here’s wishing everyone a happy Christmas – or as happy a Christmas as is possible, considering all the disruptions and worries surrounding the spreading virus as we wonder where the bloody thing is lurking.

I will not go near a shop, even though I have no fake holly for the top of the pudding. That’s no longer important.

Our (smaller) family gathering was quite settled and organised – we thought – until number two grandson received a message to say that he had been in a Covid (close contact) space.
Well, when you’re 23 and have a pile of friends wanting to let their hair down at the end of the year, what else would you do, but go clubbing? Urrgghh!
They think they are indestructible! And they’re not.
Now he’s unwell and isolating…poor thing.
His mother is upset and so are we all.
As no family members have been in close contact with this young man for three weeks we feel we are safe….But…?

I am now eligible for a ‘booster’ shot, but much online searching and GP phoning has revealed not a single chance appointment for over a month.
So, another meaningless Gov announcement, eh?

BUT,
¯ “We wish you a merry Christmas, we wish you…..etc…
And a Happy New Year.”  ¯
 
I’m sure we all hope it will be a HAPPY NEW YEAR….eventually.
