Journal: Alicia
Christmas has been planned and settled, gifts have been decided upon (though not yet purchased). Bookings for the ski trip afterwards has been made, confirmed and paid for, and arrangements for the second leg of the trip has also been made. Now all that’s left, is the twins’ birthday, and that ~~has the potential of disaster~~ ~~will be a rough day~~ is going to be fun.

[Warded to friends with children and the friends this will be relevant for]
We’re celebrating Isla and Liam’s 6th birthday with lunch and afternoon treats on Sunday December 14th, and would love to see you there. There being our house on Sheffield Terrace.

[Warded to Adrian]
I don’t know what you’re doing for Christmas, but the twins and I will be at my parents’ house in Bath. You’re welcome to join us, if you’d like, for an evening of delicious food (if we succeed in keeping dad away from the kitchen) and loads of singing and playing and a morning of kids jumping in the bed earlier than it can legally be considered morning, pressies and loads and loads of questions (probably bordering on interrogation).

You free tonight?

	I'm portkeying to Paris for dinner with mum tonight so can't take you up on what I hope was an invitation, but I'd love to join your family for Christmas. What do your parents like for after-dinner drinks? I can't show up without a bottle of something, you know me. How worried should I be about this interrogation? (Reply to this) (Thread)

That's a shame, but give my best to your mum and enjoy dinner.

Like me, they're not big drinkers, but you'll never go wrong with a good red wine, and dad's been known to have the occasional whiskey. I do know you, and I'm sure that whether you bring anything or not, they'll enjoy having you there.

Don't know, actually. Not sure whether Nanna and granddad will be there, but they're somewhere else, you'll be fairly safe and just have to answer the standard things about interests and hobbies and your parents, etc. If Nanna's there... Let's just say that subtlety's a virtue she's never practiced, and she's been muttering about it being too long since she's been at a wedding. Nanna likes a good glass of port, so maybe she can be distracted?

	Just back in now, she's wouldn't stop asking questions about you and the kids, seems she can't decide which arrival she's happier about - Sera's baby (another week or so they think), or all of us to the Island. Your Nanna sounds like my kind of gossip partner, if I were one to gossip, but we all know I'd never... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Aww, well, she only gets to become a grandmother for the first time once, and then it won't be long before she can ask me all her questions herself. I hope Sera won't be too overdue. ~~That's the upside to having twins: they tend to come earlier, although that brought along a whole collection of other downsides.~~ I... may have found a set of clothes ~~or three~~ for the baby. They are so adorable and I'd completely forgotten the joy of buying baby clothes.

My Nanna's a yenta and a meddler extra-ordinaire. You'll love her.
