Your Christmas Eve

[Kurt.]

It’s Christmas Eve guys, how you gonna spend yours ?
Will it be a stressful dash to the supermarket ? Some last minute present shopping ? A day of running around to visit family or friends ? Or maybe a day/night in the pub ?

 

[Yarrgh]

Gonna watch Die Hard. Apparently it's a Christmas movie.

We're off for breakfast now as a family, before then spending an hour or two dropping presents off. Then it's a few hours as a family before Christingle.

 

[Thomasc]

Off to have breakfast with Mrs C’s family at a local eatery.
Nice walk with the dog.
Back home for TV, buffet and wine and brandy.

Edit: whilst occasionally checking the David Moyes thread for the perpetual cycle of the same opinions repeated relentlessly.

The fire is lit, I've wrapped the spade i bought for the missus, I've sworn at the sellotape, I've switched on the fecking chrustmas tree lights*, she's making puddings for tomorrow, as i sip coffee and listen to Frank sinatra 's Christmas music (the soundtrack that played every year when I was a children).

Later I'm told we need more eggs- so that'll be in me. After that I might consider a nice malt.

*they flash by default. I can't stand flashing lights any more than I can tolerate everyone in the wife's family constantly talking through gobs stuffed with food - her mum is the worst offender by far. 15 times you have to press the stupid button on the plug, fifteen times, as they cycle through every irritating epileptic fit inducing sequence known to man and God, before they settle on a constant cold horrible white. FIFTEEN.

I don't know what happens after 15 ... I've never explored.

Housework done and fire built whilst Mrs J makes soup for the workers at the animal rescue and preps 20 Christmas lunches.

Got some hay to move then a visit to the pub.

After that some party food , champagne and watch It's a Wonderful Life for the umpteenth time.

 

[Pootsy]

Breakfast done, presents wrapped, wife and son off to get a few things we’d missed.

Time to start peeling potatoes and veg. Then I’ve a Ham to boil, a Turkey to prep and a Beef to prep. All before sitting down and watching a family movie this evening.

If I can get all my meal stuff done then a pint of the black stuff with the brother in law will be had around dinner time.

Merry Christmas Blues

I’ll save you the brother.

The forum loon is spamming the whole thread as usual.

Just like Father Christmas, he never has a day off.

 

[LostLegend]

I’m in work

Hoping they’ll let me off reasonably early so I can get to me ma’s and get straight on the cocktails

Staying in bed.
