Looks as if a good time was had by all ..... are you sure that you didn't block your face out because you really are the godfather ? i think that I can see a Winchester Browning automatic under the table !!! XXXX
I found the inner meaning of "an expressionless face". Otherwise, this looks like a nice family gathering. We are not half that amount of people so Boxing Day, whatever I can compare that with, is nowadays a very quiet gathering. Is that the day after Christmas day 25? That blank face gives me the creeps, please post one with your face back on, I would find it comforting since the faceless horrors of the world are quite enough!!! Happy New Year, Tom!!!
26th. Maybe you don't know about 'Boxing Day'. It's a quaint old English custome when all the tradesmen would know at the back door the day after Christmas, and expect you to put money in a box they took with them, in order to get good service the following day. Some tradesmen still did it when I was a kid in a rich area.
Did I say 'know'? My father used to pretend to be out, but not very well. The dustmen would leave rubbish strewn down athe drive for weeks afterwards. I felt ashamed...
The difference being that I am tolerated rather than respected...
ReplyDeleteI didn't know you had no face!
DeleteGreat photo, though.
I daren't show it. Nothing to do with security, it's just vanity.
Delete"Vanity"? I am sure you'd look much better WITH a face. Even if it is yours.
DeleteU
Vanity works both ways.
DeleteLike egocentricity - people who get nervous speaking in public are thinking of themselves constantly.
DeleteYour beautifully appointed city apartment is larger than I expected
ReplyDeleteNo it isn't. This was taken in deepest Somerset.
DeleteAnd it's 'compact but adorable'. Keep up.
DeleteWho is the Don in the picture? -Jenn
ReplyDeleteMe.
DeleteI think it is the chap on the right in the hat that sets the tone.
ReplyDeleteI've got a bone to pick with him. I was held down while he covered me in glitter dust. I will still be finding bits of glitter in years to come.
DeleteIt would be a rare blonde hair, blue and green eyes mafia family.
ReplyDeleteIt's a lovely photo; you have a pretty and handsome family!
Greetings Maria x
You would be surprised!

ReplyDeleteWinchester AND Browning? That would be greedy.
DeleteDid I get it wrong? I thought that I sounded as if I knew what I was talking about !!! XXXX
DeleteHappy Days x
ReplyDeleteYes, I am lucky.
DeleteYou're looking a bit washed-out.
ReplyDeleteNot as washed out as the day after.
DeleteYou look both like you've had enough to me
ReplyDeleteWe enjoyed it.
DeleteOr were you talking in general?
DeleteSpecific. Nothing to do with enjoyment. Whacked, done in, had it
DeleteDid you make anyone an offer they couldn't refuse?
ReplyDeleteI don't make offers these days, as a refusal often offends.

DeleteThe following year, not day.
Delete.... and knock not know !!! XXXX
DeleteThey still get it here although they dont have to knock on the door.

DeleteAll in all, Boxing Day doesn't seem to be a holiday I will wote for in our neighbourhood......
ReplyDeleteThank you for this memorable information!!
