I must be the only person I know that missed both Christmas Eve and New Year Eve. I can't believe I had nil, zero, zilch alcohol on these two nights.
Xmas Eve: finished work at 5.30am - went down town with her indoors to do some last minute(!) chrimbo shopping at about 9am. You know what women and shopping means - it was 2.30pm when we got home. My lad's scooter needed some work doing to it so being the wonderful caring Dad I am I fixed it for him.
I was just toddling off to bed for some much needed shut eye when some friends called round to see us. Knowing that we were going out that night I went for a bath, got changed sat down on the settee and fell asleep! My missus tried to wake me but couldn't. I woke up at 8am Xmas morning!
New Years Eve went much the same way. Finished work at 5.30am the missus had to work till 2pm and I had to look after the younger two kids (my lad was at his girlfriends). I went to bed when she came home and I think I must have died in bed because I woke up at 5am on New Years Day!
I even fell asleep at the mother in laws on Boxing Day!
