Off into Llandeilo this morning to pick up our pork joint ready for cooking tomorrow. We also need a few bits from the co-op too and then that's us done and ready for the main event.
Another lazy day for us today: Cold meats for lunch followed by a film and some rugby watching on TV for me. Mrs GMJ got Series 4 of The Crown for Xmas so she's quite keen to watch that whilst I watch the rugby...so a win:win!
A third day of debauchery planned for today! I'll use the last of the turkey today to make a curry, a dopiaza. I put a load of tureky in the freezer yesterday which we'll have as soon as our lad recovers from Covid and can come and see us for Christmas v2!
Off food shopping this morning then Mrs GMJ has an appointment this afternoon so I'll take her to that.
Good news yesterday: my lad tested negative for covid (he had tested positive just before Xmas so couldn't come down to see us) so we'll give him a couple more days of (hopefully) negative testing and then he can come down for a delayed Xmas...
I’m the same food shopping today not a lot of the predicted food shortages in our area but what I did notice was very short use by dates on most of the Xmas treats so off for a small restock.
If our lad tests negative for the 3rd day running he's coming down to see us today so we'll be doing Xmas all over again!
Not great for the waistline but needs must.
We had a nice day yesterday seeing our son so he could have his Christmas albeit a late one. He has stayed overnight so we'll have another (repeat) Boxing Day today.
