Just wanted to wish all of you and your loved ones a merry Christmas especially as this year has been a challenge to say the least
Merry Christmas all, hope the coming year is a better one.
It couldn't get much worse. Christmas has just been cancelled here. I'm in tier 2 but my daughter, who only lives 4 miles away, is in tier 4.
Merry Christmas to all and a much better year to come, all the best for those that are stuck in lock down, keep your chin up men .
Yes, agreed! A merry Christmas to one and all!

Here we have gone from Tier 2 yesterday to 3 today due to goto 4 at midnight. I could walk from here and be in Tier 2 in 2 1/2 miles.
Merry Christmas all!
Ah well..... come the 26th we'll go, overnight, from the Scottish tier 1 all the way up to tier 4. I'm not really disputing it though - it seems to me there's a proportion of people everywhere who just aren't playing by the rules, but 'twas ever thus.
Anyway, I wanted to echo the original sentiment of a merry christmas and happy new year, in whatever form that might be. I also wanted to thank one and all - and a few in particular - for all the advice and assistance freely offered throughout the year. A P38 is for life, not just for christmas!
So I do hope you all have a good one, and get some peace and relaxation. Or even in my mother tongue; Nollaig chridheil agus bliadhna mhath ùr!
I've given up hope of seeing my in-laws ---- tbh that's not actually a bad thing What I don't understand as many of you are the same------ the tier system is rubbish ---- if people used common sense then this tier system wouldn't be needed ----- That's simple However many these days don't think for themselves they go by Facebook Twitter ect ---- I found having a P38 & discovery 1 is a good way to isolate your self ----- plenty to do 👍 Anyway All just remember things could be worse ---- just try to keep positive
Mine will be VERY Merry - there's bugger all else to do!
Have a good one chaps, 21 needs to be a massive party to make up for a lost year :P
Looks like mine will be much the same. Got plenty of booze in and more food than the freezer is capable of holding. Daughter and husband were supposed to be coming here but as they live in a tier 4 area, aren't allowed to travel the 4 miles into my tier 2 area (and as she works for the NHS has to be seen to be complying with the rules). So the plan was to postpone Christmas dinner until the 28th when Dina's daughter and her boyfriend come over from Holland. Although the ferry from the Hook of Holland to Harwich is still running and they would be allowed to enter the UK, all trains and buses have stopped in Holland so they can't get to it (and he doesn't drive). Then there is the further complication that her boyfriend has booked 2 weeks off work to come here but doesn't know yet when he would be allowed to go back home. So step daughter's return home and his visit has been postponed too. So there will be two of us with a Christmas dinner for 4-6 which will be eaten over a period of days at some time before it reaches it's best before date.
Fortunately alcohol doesn't go off so, like Morat, we will be having a very merry Christmas. Hope most of you have a better time and here's to next year.
Repeating everyone else, have a great Christmas and hope you get that shiny new part/tool that you put on your list to Santa.
Thanks for all the help this year.
Merry Christmas to everyone, I’m locked down also, plenty of drink, but unfortunately I don’t drink, so the other half will have a good time, lol,,
Hopefully get my heap up and running next year, just lost interest in it at the minute..
You’ve all been very helpful and enjoyable company this year. Thank you for helping me get through it.
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you all.
Ho ho ho - Merry Xmas everyone
Now it's Christmas, have a good one, or as good as your particular circumstances allow, everybody.
Happy Christmas to everyone on here, probably the most helpful and informative forum there is out in internet land. Cheers all, and enjoy.
Merry Christmas to you all --- I'm sneaking out to put dashboard back together after fitting bulbs in clocks ---- my lot won't mind 🤗 Anyway Best wishes to you and your loved ones both with you and away ---- symes
