Lol 4get and rev , that's so funny , what a good laugh I had .
It's not a problem these last 2 years as there aren't the relatives still , but , when there was , we used to have to use stools and a small table and arm-of-chair perches , plus my brother used to bring an extra dining chair in his car from his house . :-) xxx
There were 10 of us kids, plus ma & pa and usually a few elderly relatives for Xmas dinner. We used deck chairs (so your nose was level with the table), tea chests, bar stools borrowed from the pub down the road and on one occasion a dolls house!
Happy days!
