Private Message to Mum and Dad

I got wonderful news today -- next month's schedule came out, and I traded in a bunch of favours I'd banked up to switch some shifts around. I'm free both Christmas and Boxing Day. So, if you don't mind me getting in at arse o'clock late Christmas Eve, I'll even be able to be there for Christmas breakfast.

Let me know if there's anything I can bring! Other than me and my appetite, that is.

Love you both.

Re: ORDER ONLY

I am all for the three of them getting together and causing as much chaos as possible. As long as they're pointed at the other side, that is!

And yeah, Alice and Frank seem to be perpetually in need of an extra pair of hands. If it weren't so rare for us lot to leave the reservation on our days off, I'd be there so much more often. They've done such a great job with it, though; it's really beautiful, isn't it? And it's a good chance for me to pitch in and be useful.

Which I'd like to sit down with you over Christmas and talk about, by the way. Being useful, I mean. I might not have the chance to be there with you lot very often, but you and Bill are both sounding like you're ready to work yourselves into an early grave, and there has to be something else I can do to help from here.
