Just had the phone call with all the family in Liverpool. They got together this year as usual and are in post dinner stupor, slightly drunk on champagne and doing the usual stuff we do...except I'm not there. Mum canceled xmas and it seems to apply to me too. I'm sad and depressed, my inlaws are lovely people but they don't drink, appreciate large amounts of food, or do any of the stuff my family does, and they aren't them. I miss my family and there just aren't enough people here to hit critical mass for me.
And screw it if they don't eat it, I'm making christmas pudding even if I'm the only one who eats it, I made them a pumpkin pie.
