These are our Christmas cards, all ready to be posted tomorrow a whole two days before the last posting date for second class post! This is something of a miracle – we normally post on the last posting day for first class. So, are we super organised compared to normal? Yes and no. We have, at some cost to our emotional well-being, managed to get them done tonight, a few days before “shit or bust” day. (A bit cack.)

I am quite simply the worst, most ill-equipped, irresponsible human being this planet has known.

The bad thing is that the cream card is a birthday card for my nephew that’s already late and will be even later before it gets there. (A lot cack.)

We have only failed one member of our combined families so far this Christmas. (A bit cack.)
