UP early to get the smoker fired up and the turkey out of it’s brine.
Once things are underway for later we have some Buck’s Fizz and open some presents - we have a family ‘secret Santa’ but Margaret and I have presents for each other and have included Matty and Les.
I’m starting to feel a bit unwell tho’ - a tender and uncomfortable lower abdomen. Kinda like Tuesday.
It’s so bad that I have to go for a lie down not long after Catriona and the kids arrive 🙁
The turkey’s making good progress in the smoker and I give Margaret final instructions on finishing it off.
Soon after the vomiting starts….and that’s me…
