Re: Have a very Retro Christmas everybody!!
@Darklord, sorry to hear things haven't gone to plan. Hope you are able to resume normal service soon and finally have that Christmas dinner.

@Darklord Hope everyone avoids any serious symptoms & you're all back to full health & socialising very soon!
Just imagine how much better that Christmas dinner will be once you are all together for the belated celebrations!

Re: Have a very Retro Christmas everybody!!
Thanks everyone. It's gotten a little better. No one else is exhibiting any symptoms
at the moment.
My mother had fixed Christmas dinner this year, so since none of the affected could
attend, she made up some "care" packages consisting of the usual turkey dinner plus
fixings and had my father drop them off to everyone who couldn't leave their homes.
Not the same as being there, but what the heck, I'll take it! :yay2:
Merry (adapted) Christmas!
