My hopes were well founded, as I did find myself to be a bit hungover in the morning - but it was Christmas I reminded myself, so being merry can be forgiven!
I had a very lazy day as a result, and sorted myself out ready to Skype the family. I spent 90 minutes enjoying chatting with Ali and all the others, though Ali headed to bed at some point during the call. Everyone seemed well and we were happy to chat with each other.
