Well it'll be very similar to everyone else's really.
My sister and I will open our presents in the morning. Then I'll probably try and help with cooking the Christmas dinner. No doubt I'll just get in the way and my Mum will shout at me so that'll be the end of that. A few relatives will come round, and we'll cram 7 people round a table that can only seat 4. Might not be as happy and jovial as in previous years though. In the afternoon we'll probably play a game of Trivial Pursuit as a family or something (yawn!), I will win ;D, then my relatives will go home and my parents will open their pressies. Probably be quite drunk by tea time so I'll just fall asleep in front of whatever rubbish is on tele.
And that'll be that for another year!

*Up early with Mini Gres..wake up Stepdaughter and start opening the first Skip load of presents. *Start cooking dinner at about 10am (close kitchen door, and begin working my way through the chilled lager supply) *Mum, Dad, Brother and his missus arrive about 4 with another skip load of presents - open them while finishing off the lager supply. *Have tea...start on the spirits and mixers then fall asleep in my chair about 10pm! I LOVE IT!! ![8-)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/cool.png)
