Morning All!
It's Christmas Day! (And Also Friday)
Yesterday: Decent day again, albeit one slightly affected by sinuses and the movable tooth pain caused by sinuses.
Today: I'm leading the 8am Prayer Meeting: Two Scriptures, a song to close, see where God takes us in between. Then zoom hosting & teching for Gateway's 10am service this morning. Very Much looking forward to both, even if my plan for the later has REMEMBER TO SHARE COMPUTER SOUND written all over it! Christmas Dinner at lunch time. L & J are going to her Mum & Dad's for a bit this afternoon, I will stay at home and zoom Mum in Kingston in London's Tier 4.
Pray Day goes OK, Sinuses, CMT and Head cope OK. Pray we stay protected from the virus.
Have a good day, stay safe & well. Happy Christmas!

Merry Christmas!
Just been for a walk with Suki, the lack of cars made it a lot easier for her.

Unexpected Christmas Twist: The doorbell goes at 9:30 and it's the lovely chap from next door apologising and asking if he can borrow my drain rods as his drains are backed up. As the sewer flow goes from him to me, I open our drain cover expecting to find the same - but it's clear! cue half an hour of flushing sewer pipes and talking over the fence in the cold as he tries to plunge his blockage through.

Managed to coordinate a video call to unite mum, dad, sister and me. First time we've tried. Mum over the moon, she thought we wouldn't be able to get together. My sister lives North of Newcastle and we're on the south coast.

Managed to cook a decent Christmas lunch for Dad and me. Facetimed sister's family and relatives in Torquay. The weather's been nice for a walk. Can't complain.

Back from Gran's after a fine Christmas dinner - Suki came with us - interrupted my dinner as she needed the toilet.

CHOCOLATE LOG DEPLOYED. REPEAT. CHOCOLATE LOG DEPLOYED. Unexpected Christmas Twist: The doorbell goes at 9:30 and it's the lovely chap from next door apologising and asking if he can borrow my drain rods as his drains are backed up. As the sewer flow goes from him to me, I open our drain cover expecting to find the same - but it's clear! cue half an hour of flushing sewer pipes and talking over the fence in the cold as he tries to plunge his blockage through.

It wasn't my drains that were blocked!

You know, it isn't usual but it is stress free. Today's been weird. Drains aside, good food, fantastic presents, and no fuss. First Christmas in living memory that I haven't fallen asleep in the afternoon, yet I'm still on my second bottle of wine.

Yeah, I've missed being with the family, but I have enjoyed being able to take the day at my own pace.

I have grave concerns that 2021 will become... THE HUNT FOR SHOCKPROWL.

Anyone get a visit from Robot Santa then?
I never get toys. Haven't for years. But... I made a point of saying this on my Christmas list in the hope Robot Santa would listen and... And... I got toys! Christmas Day with toys! Hurrah!!!!

Robot Santa was very good to me, including one of my kinda sorta grails. The list will be updated in due course, when I am not so overwhelmed.

I'd like to have my TF nuts enabled.

Ask nicely at TFN and we'll see.

I cannot currently define whether I am on bottle two or three because I'm now well into a wine box.
However, zoom call regulars will confirm I am still able to talk coherently!

What's that? What's that you say? I can't hear you from the chandeliers I'm swinging from.
I need help. I'm on the ropes here. I'm sitting here talking to Earthrise Trailbreaker because he is the best Trailbreaker since the original and Mrs P asks... Why Transformers?
I er, I think back through 36 years and... And... I need help chaps. She doesn't understand. She doesn't get it. I can't explain...

Where's that bastard Shockprowl when you need him? He knows how to pacify a difficult partner.

Yes, your Transformers are talking to you.

With a face sculpt like Trailbreaker's how can he not?! This is perfect!
