The matriarchs have consulted together and the big family Christmas do- which we were supposed to be hosting- has been called off-  because of snow- which means we have rather a lot of potato hash to eat.

Oh- and (cheerful thought) rather a lot of wine to drink.
 
Here's a major difference between men and women. Women love these affairs- with finger food being passed around and the generations tolerating one another and grandma sat in the corner receiving homage- and men detest them. At least, that's the case in our family. How about yours?

A lot depends on whether or not you like the people you're related to.

I remember a very grand get together at a great aunt's house- at which everybody was very old (or seemed to be) and the old people got to play bowls (which they took terribly seriously) and we few children weren't allowed to join in.
