Lin described how Christmas Day had been "tricky" for them, especially when the children were younger.
She said: "Peter used to let the younger vets who weren’t married go home to their families so it was him who would work.
"It was a problem because when the children were smaller and they’d start opening presents, a call would come in and he very urgently had to go, they used to have to put the unwrapping on hold until he got back."
