Thank you Di for this week’s Christmas questions.

1 – Which do you prefer, Christmas pudding, mince pies, or trifle?

Oh I love all three. However, I have literally just finished a mince pie so I will go with that, with a cup of tea of course.

2 – Which gives you the most satisfaction:

Cooking a special meal for your family / Dining with family and friends / Not having to do the washing up afterwards.

I will say dining with friends and family as I’m not the best cook ever. I’m not bad but I find it stressful cooking for many people. Also I actually really enjoy doing the washing up, I find it very therapeutic.

3 – Can you recall the best and worst gift you received (any occasion)?

Best gift, I once received an iPad from my parents when they had just come out, I was very excited, surprised and grateful but I have had many from my partner over the years. It doesn’t have to be anything fancy, I’m easily pleased if there’s been some thought put into it. Worst gift, I haven’t had any thing horrendous thankfully, not that I can recall.

4 – After a full and enjoyable meal what do you prefer to do:

Take a nap, watch TV or play board games with the kids?

Maybe watch tv or I don’t mind board games with the family. Ideally I would love to go for a walk after a meal.

Gratitude:

Grateful to be off work on Christmas Day as I know this isn’t the case for many nurses.
