Alone at Christmas

[drchasuble]

My boyfriend has gone to spend Christmas with his family in Australia (his father has been very ill so they want the entire family to get together) so we are going to be apart for an entire month.

Anyone else spending Xmas without their partner?

There is no need to be out of contact for that long. Have you heard of skype

I'm spending xmas alone and I don't even have a partner. Hopefully things will improve if i get really drunk tomorrow and crack onto one of my georgeous flat mates, provided i can get in a word of english that is. Could be worse i guess, they still eat rice and flies for xmas dinner in some parts of the world coz they can't afford anything else. We should thank our lucky stars really i suppose.
