Friday 17 December - Little donkey, little wonky, with your missing leg...
Current location: Penzance, Cornwall
11.11pm, Fixing Christmas. Dad decided to mend the things that boisterous grandchildren/drunk aunties/years of overuse have broken over the decades. We tend to hoard our Christmas decorations, so we currently have about 30 years' worth on the tree at the moment.
One of the casualties of Christmas was the donkey from our nativity scene; it has had a broken leg (well, no leg at all) since I was born, but Dad decided to do the right thing and fix it. So now it has a wooden leg!! He failed to notice its missing ear, but I guess it gives him a project for next year.
I had such a lovely day – I met my friend Tom Sidney and we had liqueur coffees and Christmas-flavoured pasties. Feeling so festive and excited for Christmas!
