    I agree in that it changes often, we used to have a very family Christmas with focus on being together as it can be difficult to do that throughout the year but as the kids have got older they have their own plans so Mrs luv and me will go out more this year and spend some time together.

    Wait till you're grand parents, you'll be more giddy than when yours were little.

    Currently looking for Nintendo switch games and doll's prams <laugh>

    Neither of my girls want kids, so the line and the name dies there.

    I've been thinking about the Grand Parents thing lately, hopefully I've got a few years yet as I'm not ready and need a break from kids! I love my kids but the little ****s wear on you with their constant need for things and money, Mrs luv spoils them they know they can get away with anything. Problem is the oldest is 21 and the youngest 12, I'm probably going to be a GP before the youngest moves out.

    ****, now I'm depressed.

    Even if they have kids, the name could die there...

    We sometimes do Christmas Eve curry but wouldn't swap traditional Christmas dinner. I can get quite excited deciding which meats to get <laugh>

    I
    No my (and my partners) kids live with us. Having grandkids living here too fills me with fear <yikes>.

    So far, none are in sight but 3 of the 4 are of ‘spawning’ age....you get the gist....
