My nephew Colin insisted on popping round with Christmas presents bringing Alex and Sophie with him. As Sophie is just back from Uni and Alex works in a Tier 4 zone even though for Christmas day we were allowed to mix households I did not want to take a chance. We are Tier 3 and if we were not allowed to have visitors in the house before Christmas what difference did Christmas day make? I told them they could come but would have to go out onto the decking. It was 2 degrees out there and so the big fleeces came out. It was lovey to see them all and we did have a laugh!! What a way to treat visitors!! A very strange Christmas Day!!
I can understand your reluctance to get any closer. My daughter and son in law had to stand outside with me on Christmas Eve when they brought our presents and it was horrible not being able to give them a hug.
Oh I think this is all part of the fun Pam... we will look back & say do you remember..... makes a great photo! We had the sliding doors open at our daughters & we sat a bit apart on the end of the table but it was fun!
