Yeah glad to be home for christmas I have not been home for the past 2 so this will be a good one also not had a christmas with my youngest who is 2 as have work the past 2. No not a nice place but you make the best of it. Below is a copy of the christmas and boxing day menus. We also will have the same sort of spread at new year, there is also games played like pool and snooker, darts, domino's and crib and table tennis so a good day for everyone else apart from us because we will have work outside to do but may get to see a film. Also a raffle to look forward to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tractorman810 Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 just back from taking sues daughter up, had to stop and comfort her as she burst into tears after we left, looks like a real bad case of numonia?? (spelling never was my good point as you all know) still in the hdu bit, and looks like being there for a good few days, blood pressure is very very low, almost non exsistant infact, which isnt helping him, personally i am sad to say i think its a waiting game now ,poor old fellas 93 and thin as a rake now, almost as if hes lost the fight looking at him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 93?! Blimey, strong age for a chap. Shame to hear he is not very well currently and I hope some medication and maybe some R & R see the gentleman right again soon, Sean.
