How NICE! Look at that plate of food! And the gravy! You know what this does to me....lol....and here I have promised myself that my New Year's diet started today.

I have my daughter on IM and she told me it's Boxing Day (an official holiday) in the Cayman Islands. She is working (of course) but the stores all closed early today and government employees had the whole day off.

Boxing Day in Britain is a public holiday for virtually everyone even the supermarkets closed today though that seems to vary from year to year. If one decides to open then they all do but this year only the German supermarket in Ashford was open.

Some of the other shops were open though such as DIY and furniture shops.

Tomorrow though the sales start in earnest.
