Delightful, because they live in a different country and we only get to see them maybe once every second year. We came downstairs to the delightful but confusing sight of my sister and her five children walking in the front door.
Mum immediately assigned us tree decoration duty, so we were upstairs digging boxes of decorations out of the spare room when we heard the sounds of other people arriving. Some years back, my husband and I drove down on Christmas Eve to join my parents for the holiday.
In my defence, it really wasn’t my fault! I have been the person shopping at ridiculous hours on Christmas Eve.
