    No but Ive got a lot of boxes. Kids presents = lots of boxes. My kids (even my 18 year old) still believe that's why it's called Boxing Day :D

    ......I'm not taking the blame, they could have googled it if they wondered :rotfl::rotfl:

    :)

    What a busy day. I invited lots of family & friends to our spread today expecting a few die hards to turn up but everyone turned up :eek:

    Rather chaotic as non speaking teenagers hogged the sofa & ate all the sausages on sticks
    The under 5s raced up & down the stairs & dined on Prawn Cocktail skips :rotfl:
    The over 90s slept :D
    The 50-70s wanted games to play - so we did several rounds of Memory Tray.
    Millie who is 4 drew all the items from memory :T I shall frame her delightful list ♥
    Jigsaw puzzle for the over 70s :)
    We had a group photo - I was standing between 1st OH & 2nd OH ;):o

    All in all a lovely get together ♥

    Sorry I haven't read back - no time to myself at the present :(

    But I will be queuing outside Ts for 7am tomorrow - if there is anything left after the SAs have already had the 1st dibs 2 days ago

    If all else fails - read the instructions...
