Pre-Christmas catch-ups

I have quite a large family and I always try to make the effort to see as much of my family as possible in the run-up to Christmas. Fortunately all my siblings live within about 40 minutes drive of my mum’s house which means that it is usually possible to go and visit them all on the same day. What makes life much easier though is when half of them decide to descend on my mum’s house on Christmas Eve – which means less time spent travelling about to see people and more time actually being able to see them – perfect!
