Monday December 26th 2022 (Boxing Day or St Stephen's Protomartyr Day)

A quieter day for Lois and me at our daughter Alison's family's house, with lots of "chilling out" after the excitements of Christmas Day yesterday. We don't have much time before a scheduled zoom call, but Lois feels like stretching her legs, so we go for a walk around the neighbourhood, and visit Eddey's Lane.

"Who was Eddey?", we wonder. We don't know, but perhaps we should be told!

12:00 We have a zoom call with Sarah and her 9-year-old twins Lily and Jessica.

13:00 Lunch is a rerun of Christmas Day lunch, and, after that, the day dissolves into a frenzy of Impossibly Difficult Jigsaw work.

What can I say, except perhaps "What madness !!!!" There's no chance that this jigsaw will be finished before the children go back to school in January, that's for sure!!!!
