GiN , Fishcakes now you are talking my kind of scumminess mmmm mmm mmmm, can I come round for tea ;-)

OFITG - Paddington, et al, had similar hordes awaiting non-existent trains. And most of them had pre-paid fares.

OFITG - that must have been one hell of a Christmas Eve :-D :-D :-D :-D ;-) ;-) ;-)

It's mainly bacon,leek and potato - just a bit of turkey, Mersey :-D :-D

The last of it is going into a curry to put in the freezer. Enough is enough, so we're having smoked haddock fishcakes for tea - thank gawd! :-D :-D ;-) ;-)

It's not only Dad's that can wander when they get squiffed at Christmas :-D one Christmas in my late teens, I persuaded my Mum & Dad to let me go to the Christmas Eve celebrations in Edinburgh, they agreed providing I promised to be on the last train home that night.

On Christmas morning my Dad got a phone call asking if he could go to Inverkeithing Railway Station and pay for my rail fair home :-( I had got on the wrong train, fallen asleep, where was the phone call from, wait for it,,,,,,,,,

the phone call was from the Transport Police at Kings Cross Railway Station in London :-D

GiN yukky at turkey soup :-D ;-)

Any offers for a second-hand Christmas tree?

Old lady owner - both in reasonable condition. Can be sold individually, if required. Must collect.

Yes, Piers, it was a good Christmas :-D :-D

But I think I want to get back to normal now, and eat something other than turkey :-D :-D

Turkey curry, turkey pie, turkey pasta, turkey soup ................... ;-) ;-) ;-)

Thank you Mersey <3 <3. I hope 2015 brings you good health and lots of happiness <3 <3 :-)
