Merry Christmas all! I hope you all have a fantastic day, whether or not you celebrate.

Thanks to everyone working over Christmas, keeping us safe or feeding everyone.

This year I promised not to give anybody gifts and not to accept gifts from anybody. I told everybody about it months before Christmas.

I kept that promise.

I think I might have! I did most shopping online so hardly heard any Christmas songs.

If anyone knows where I put my Mum's present, please let me know. I looked in all the obvious places 🥲

Look for something else! Then you'll accidentally stumble across it.

I found it! Haha, it got found while the kids were opening their presents.

Have you checked under the tree? Merry Christmas from Scotland!

[–] Dave@lemmy.nz 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I did but I can't find it. I put it in a safe place, where no one will ever find it!

Good luck in finding it and have a good day

Now we are off to Mum's today for a quite day them Mum's birthday tomorrow
