  • Was 7am for us, but that's pretty normal and my little guy doesn't understand the concept yet as he's only one.

    Going out today simply reinforced how hard it's going to be be to get him 'into' Christmas.

    Randomly been awake since 4.

    However I think a good chunk of the neighbours are currently being awoken by a pissed chap on Westcombe Park Station who has been singing Valley Floyd Road for the past 10 minutes! Made my day so far haha.

    Going to a train station, even on Christmas day. Proper Charlton that. 
  • Merry Christmas all! - I'm first up and sterilising baby bottles, used to be last up with a mild hangover, what a difference a year makes!

    My children are now 17 and 20, and both will be asleep for a good while yet. Much as I loved the excitement of the kids when they were young, this is better.

    6.15 our cat gave us a lie-in this morning.  She usually wakes us up about 5.30am and has the loudest cat voice I have ever heard, she sat on the bed and had a lovely cuddle.
  • Up at 5:45 no kids, but had to ring Australia at 5 pm there time to chat to my brother, 5 minutes re families, 40 minutes on Charlton, got our priorities correct.
  • Got shaken awake by my 5 year old at half past feckin 3 in the morning. Asking if it’s time to go downstairs yet. I get the kids are excited but for gods sake*

    *lets be honest it makes Christmas special and I bloody love it!
  • Up at 5.30. No kids but the mrs is a nurse and is on shift for the day so we gave or presents to each other before she headed off to work

    Went to bed at 1, girlfriends grandkids got up at 2.30. Have just managed to grab an hours kip after all the presents were being done. 
  • We got a text from my daughter to say the kids were up at 6.30 so we chucked some clothes on and wandered down to their log cabin. Have just got back to ours for a shower before we go for a walk on the beach to work up our appetite for lunch.
