It seemed like we had weeks to christmas then days then poof it's all over, the las t 2 days have gone so quickly, as usual my plans went for a burton, I could'nt get all my shopping for dinner done and lost of bit of enthusiasm with so much to do so I cried off I was going to one off the girls instead,again not that keen mainly because I was extremly tired, at 10pm xmas eve I got a phone call from my old boss and they invited me to Wisbech for xmas I have to say I jumped at the chance, Jane and her daughter Emma drove down and picked me up 2 hours later I was sat glass of wine in front of a roaring fire. (For Emma this was a 4 hour round trip which was incredibly kind of her)
We had a lovely dinner much wine and chat, TV was'nt up to much, but we did enjoy Strictly Dancing.
It was a shame to see on the news on xmas eve that the conductors had gone on strike for 72 hours really unfair and my heart went out to those who could'nt get home for xmas or were just stranded at train stations.
So obviously I could'nt get home yesterday, so had to leave early this morning again Emma kindly drove me to Ely and I caught a train directly to Colchester, I was supposed to go straght to work then realised I left the pub keys at home, so mad dash home then back to the station and caught the 10.29 and got to work just before midday.
We were quite busy for lunch and from 3pm onwards very very quiet opefully tommorrow will improve a bit at least I have the long weekend off.
We went to a bird sanctaury yesterday just outside of Ely mainly swans and geese and several types of duck, there were apparently some Kingfishers earlier which we missed still it was good to go out for a while.
Hope everyone had a great Christmas
thats it for now
