It's CHRIIIISTMAAAAAAAAS!
Mulvey Christmas this weekend. For myself, I'd just let everyone turn up and we'd go to the pub, but Jayne didn't kick Estyn's butt without being a serious planner, so..
Friday: clean Rhys's room including stripping the bed, clean the bathroom (except the shower), cook the Malaysian chicken, sweep up at the front of the house, bring the beer kegs in from the shed so it can settle, lick and spit clean for the house (I cleaned it properly on Monday), clean the shower after Jayne has used it later, meal with all my brothers and sisters and their various spouses and partners at the Lemon Tree in Wrexham.
(If that looks like a pre-prepared list, that's because it is) 😁
Saturday: pre-cook the jacket potatoes, get as much as possible or if the fridge into the outside fridge and bring the non-keg beer and wine into the fridge inside. At about this time Rhys will be leaving for Australia for at least a year, so Jayne is likely to be slightly wobbly from here on in. Collect Tom and Elanor from the station, await the arrival of my siblings, travel to Llangollen for a walk along the canal, possibly have a drink in the Corn Mill, back to Coedy, finish off the jacket potatoes, heat up the Beef & Stout Stew and Malaysian Chicken, open presents from family Secret Santa, eat the food, drink the drinks and go to the Golden Lion. The siblings will get a minibus back to the Lemon Tree at closing time and Jayne, Tom, Elanor and myself will stumble home.
Sunday: hopefully people will come and say hello before they go home, take T&E back to the station later.
Collapse.
Have a good 'un, folks!
