I like Boxing Day. It's calm, chilled and always far more relaxing than any other of the days around Christmas and New Year. I get to see family who I haven't seen before and have a nice rest up.
Today I have come to my parents and opened my stash of presents. I did rather well for myself with a new camera and a new ipod! My dad has gone to pick up his cousins and soon there will be a nice Boxing Day tea with plenty of nibbles.
Unfortunately the dog kept me awake for a large part of last night so I feel a bit tired at present but I am hoping my energy will soon return.
I love tukey and am always gutted as (because of this family tea which we have on an annual basis) my parents tend to run out of it fairly quickly.
It is great to see my dad's cousins though. They are lovely people and I enjoy their company - if only to wind my parents up with my love of John Lewis and Waitrose.
Diet starts next Wednesday by the way...so I am off now to stuff my face!!
