The CHRISTMAS Thread

Lovely work on the glass, mate.

Sounds ace!

Apparently 2 of her daughters warned her they're rank. She still wanted one though.
Will let you know what she thinks.

Great film! The wife is looking forward to working on the showings at her place of work that are sing alongs.

Nice, mate of mine once bought his wife a frying pan for Christmas. Don't think she ever did any cooking in her life......they're no longer married!

As it happens, I've asked for a frying pan this year...

Our vacuum cleaner has just packed up, am I that brave to suggest another present for her?

I bought the mother of my children a set of scales for Christmas. That went well. Might as well have bought a card with merry Christmas fattie on it.

I think those days are gone my old mucker.

Funnily enough ours packed up this week too, did the research and went and sorted it myself.

I mean I’m all for transition and sharing the load, but had a bit of a jolt when I found myself starting to appreciate clothes that wash up well

Shockingly, I’ve never watched it!

My daughter and I have just watched the Jim Carrey Christmas Carol ( at her request). I’d never watched that one before either.

If you're watching on Disney+, they've finally made the full original version available with Clara's song restored, albeit you have to select it as an extra...

I'm a big fan of A Christmas Carol, my favourite being the 1984 George C Scott version which was filmed in Shrewsbury

@machin05 well, she had it for breakfast today.
She said it isn't rank - just tastes like noodles with paxo flavouring (with a few lumps of paxo in the pot for good measure). It was ok, she's glad she tried it, but not rushing out to buy another.

Pot Noodle for breakfast!? Jesus wept

 

[machin05]

These are great. Just enough blue cheese hum without being a full on honk fest.

I did wonder if anyone would pick up on that! In fairness to her, she had been up for 4 hours already, and it'll keep her going throughout her working day as her shift timings can be odd!

Now I'll give you those.

Turkey, pig in blanket, cranberries and even a Brussels sprout in them.
