Libby

Me too, was abroad when it happened and could not believe it, had a child the same age, when I went home not long after my Mum insisted that I bought toddler rains when I was home.
Went into Mothercare in the Strand and they had all sold out, even though they had not been popular for years, made everyone very wary then :O(
Libby lived in Oriel Road, used to go up to Red Cross meetings in Knowsely Road and wasn't Bootle Odean just of there ? used to go to the kids show of a Saturday Morning :O)

Do you stay over here for Christmas or go home, and when do you celebrate the 24th Dec ?

Hi Joyce
I read most of the posts but don't post much myself.
Now and again when I think I have something to contribute to the thread.
I am retired, Married with 2 married boys and 3 Grandchildren
I was born in Yorkshire but emigrated to Perth Australia in 1967. Been married for 45 years now.
I have been a member of Genes for 3 years and 6 months now
Nice to meet you
Regards
Jackie

Sheila - we stay here most years, but we always celebrate on the 25th, it was much more exciting for the kids, going to bed on Christmas Eve and knowing that Father Christmas would be coming during the night.
We always celebrate Nikolaustag on December 6th as well, do you?
This year we've decided to go back to UK and celebrate with my parents, they're getting on now and although I hate to say it, don't know how long they will be around to celebrate with.
