That's what it's all about

No not the okey cokey - although Messrs S and J did do a bit of hand jiving, seat wriggling, butt spinning and even something that looked like dad dancing at various times today. I mean chilling with people. Like all day. With food and games.

So we went to Carluccios for brunch and emerged two and a half hours later; at one point I think they were going to threaten to charge us ground rent we showed no signs of leaving. Good food, excellent coffee and hot chocolate.

Back home we stuck on some Christmas music and played 221b Baker Street in front of a log fire whilst eating huge slices of cake from Patisserie Valerie.

Definitely felt Christmassy today.

The Dizzle went to the emirates with borrowed season tickets and saw the Arsenal win 3-1. We crashed in the evening; we can only take so much excitement in one day ...

Looking back: on the first day of Christmas ...
