QuestionTime With PPB, Instead of Sir Robin Day .

Were you brought up to call him Father Christmas, Santa Claus, Saint Nick, or its only your Uncle Pete dressed up?

Father Christmas mainly.

Do you buy an Advent Calendar ?

Nah, they're for kids. But I have kids so they have a Lego Star Wars one this year. And I absolutely won't be helping them with it.

Favorite Christmas song ?

Fairytale of New York is magnificent. Though I also love The Darkness' Christmas song, purely for the fact they shoehorned the words 'ring peace' and 'bells end' into the verses.

Do you like Gingerbread ?

Love the stuff.

Famous Names Liqueur Chocolates,weve all been given a box at some point but do any of us really like them ?

Don't think I have. Why buy me shit like that when everyone knows a nice bottle of good ale will suffice?

Do you drop something in the tin of the person standing outside supermarkets?

I live in Stourbridge, dear. We don't have people like that in our town. (That's a joke.)

What does your Boxing Day meal usually consist of?

Real ale usually.

Who said thank fuck ? !!

Not me. Some of these questions are fun!

Who remembers the old Selection Boxes, with Spangles, Treets, Milky Way and a Fudge ?

They were great.

Ever been away on holiday during the Christmas period ?

No, but I think I'd like to have a Christmas Day in the sun one year. Not til the kids are a lot older though.

Do you know all the words to The Twelve Days Of Christmas ?

Yep. The Alan Partridge version is the best one.

Do you hang a stocking for little saft pressies ?

No - used to when I lived with my parents though.

If you could erase Christmas from the calendar, if you could just make it go away, would you ?

I wish it didn't start til December TBH but once it's here, I love it. Cannot abide schmaltzy bullshit adverts like the fucking Coca Cola truck, the John Lewis ad which usually is some limp wristed cover version of some description etc. I hate how early these things pollute my tv in October/November.

If you were gonna buy Langers a Christmas present, what would you get him ?[/QUOTE]

How kind! Things on my Christmas list:

Xbox One + various games (see video games thread)
Beer

Anything else is a bonus.

If you were gonna buy PPB a Christnas present, what would you get her ?

The Viz Profanasaurus. Some of your swearing is good but it's time to take it to the next level.

What would PPB buy TDan for Christmas ?

I'd get him a pet dinosaur. Though dinosaurs are for life, not just for Christmas.

If you were gonna buy James a Christmas present, what would you get him ?

30 seconds in the ring with Hulk Hogan. And I'd make sure it was filmed.
 
Last Christmas Panto you went to ? I've never been to one.

Do you like Christmas cake and mince pies ? Yes

Ever go out to a restaurant for your Christmas dinner ? Twice and regretted it both times. The staff seem more interested in getting you in and out of the place so that they can feck off and enjoy Christmas themselves. Understandable really.

Do you have a traditional dinner or have goose, duck, beef or other ? Turkey and may have another roast meat too. Last year was beef.

Do you wear the hat out of your cracker ? Yes grudgingly.

Ever tried Egg Nog, if so did you like it ? Yes its Ok. Not a tipple of choice mind.

Do you usually ask people what they want for Christmas, or get what you think they will want and like ? A bit of both. The problem when I ask and then deliver is that it shows that not a lot of imagination went into it, which in my eyes is a good thing as I hate getting something thats not really wanted.

Do you have to attend a works party, if so are you there because you want to be or there because you feel you have to be there ? Have done at other places of work. We don't have them at my present work.

Have you ever got rat arsed at one of these works party, and done something you later regretted ? Rat arsed yes, only regret was once at the Belfry at a works do (my sister worked there at the time) it was also my birthday and the DJ stopped proceedings to wish me a happy birthday and get everyone to join in the happy birthday song. Lots of other companies were there too so it was hugely embarrassing made worse so by my refusal to get out of my seat despite the attempt of four blokes to get me up onto the dance floor to receive a few cards and a gift. I was about 19 at the time.

Were you brought up to call him Father Christmas, Santa Claus, Saint Nick, or its only your Uncle Pete dressed up? Santa

Do you buy an Advent Calendar ? Yes for the kids.

Favorite Christmas song ? Lots to choose from and much to the annoyance of my kids I change the words to the most of them. (So here it is Merry Christmas everybody hates W**t B**m). Probably prefer listening to a good carol. Hark the Herald Angels Sing?

Do you like Gingerbread ? Its OK but I wouldn't buy it or choose it I'd prefer something else.

Famous Names Liqueur Chocolates,weve all been given a box at some point but do any of us really like them ? If its chocolate i'll happily much away.

Do you drop something in the tin of the person standing outside supermarkets? Sometimes.

What does your Boxing Day meal usually consist of? If not out elsewhere it will be cold meat and bubble and squeak. Nom nom.
 
Who said thank fuck ? !! Quite a few people and I'm sure I have at some point.

Who remembers the old Selection Boxes, with Spangles, Treets, Milky Way and a Fudge ? Yes and they still do them without spangles.

Ever been away on holiday during the Christmas period ? Twice to the Netherlands to spend Christmas with my brother. Amazingly, as he lives in a coastal town on both occasions they had a white Christmas, whereas I've never really had one at home.

Do you know all the words to The Twelve Days Of Christmas ? Yes

Do you hang a stocking for little saft pressies ? No

If you could erase Christmas from the calendar, if you could just make it go away, would you ? No I like it.
 
If you were gonna buy Langers a Christmas present, what would you get him ?[/QUOTE]

I'm sure he'd be happy with a pint or bottle of real ale.

If you were gonna buy PPB a Christmas present, what would you get her ? I'm no good at buying for ladies so it would have to be Wolves related. A pint glass for her to raise at home each time we win.

What would PPB buy TDan for Christmas ? A santa outfit so that he and his wife can pretend to be Mr & Mrs Claus.

As for James I'd get him some hair clippers or an appointment at the barbers. James, you know it makes sense.

Primo Levi - If This Is A Man. His account of life inside Auschwitz. Just awful to read, though brilliantly written.

Do you like Pease Pudding that comes in tins ?

I have no idea what this is!

You any good at snooker/pool ?

Absolutely diabolical! I'm good at spotting what should go where (i.e. the ball in the pocket) but the execution is more than slightly lacking.

Tarantino!! And love some of Danny Boyle's stuff. And plenty of Mel Brooks.

Nope. Filthy habit.

Do you bite your fingernails ? Terrible habit and unfortunately yes. My daughter can bite her toenails, now that is really disgusting, but as she's one I don't tell her off for it as often as I should.
