boxing gloves out on the appropriate day....and relax

nearly over....not long now. I feel as though I am
walking onto the seventeenth tee two up. Dormi.
What could possibly go wrong now ? I managed
to keep the memsahib away from the gin and tear
free. No in-laws entered my property during the
mad celebrations and I only had a couple of glasses
myself . I feel satisfied with my presents .
I did get a strangely emotional moment when
I was listening to the Dubliners in the kitchen (weird
the people that turn up ! ) , and wrote a poem .
But all in all I can just about deal with a bit of peas
and quiet of a Xmas. Its battle stations soon and back
to work. Marvellous.
I have cracked it. The answer is if you dont want
to fraternise ....dont do it. My partners relatives cant
help it..and why should I take the higher ground....
peas and good wills to all men...or vegetables and
inheritance ....thats what makes sturdy families.
" and I called me wife and I said to her...
would you kindly tell to me...
Who knows those feckers outside the door..
Where my old feckers should be....."
( The Dubliners ).....beautiful lyrics...
So now the next thing to anticipate and draw up
plans for is the New Years celebrations. How can I
stay up on this surfboard after fourteen pints of stout ?
Not easy......is anything ?
