I hope you’ve all been having good ones 🙂 I’ve spent Christmas at my sister’s in Cornwall (it’s not just me who loves this part of the country in my family!). She’s decorated the house very thoroughly; so thoroughly she objected to any presents that didn’t match her colour scheme and hid them at the back of the tree! We’re currently enjoying leftovers for breakfast (at 1pm, what of it?) and watching old films, and we’ll be off for a seafront walk later.

It’s been fun, combining our christmas traditions with her boyfriend’s. We always see a film on Christmas Eve and open one present before bed. His family always go to the pub on Christmas day and he plays the bagpipes. My boyfriend is currently at the football with his family; their boxing day tradition (I see him again tomorrow, after a week apart – the longest separation in our relationship so far!).

Do any of you guys have any hard and fast traditions that your holiday isn’t complete without?
