Christmas - 2022

[Paulie Dangerously]

After two belter years doing it at ours my ma wants to do it at hers, "in case it's the last year she can." There's nothing wrong with her like. 

[Captain Turdseye]

Had my house all tidy yesterday. Now it’s a bomb site again. Unbelievable. 
 

Now I’ve got to somehow juggle wrapping loads more stuff, playing games with the kid, restoring the house to its tidy state, drinking beer, eating shit food and watching Carradona try to police the forum in that Paris thread. 
 

Had to brave the town centre and Tesco before. Absolute chaos. That’s it now. I’m in. I’m not going anywhere. 
 

Let’s do the Christmas. 

[tokyojoe]

Every thing wrapped up. Fuck christmas and let the arguments begin,

 

I mean restart

[Karl_b]

We're on our third quiet Christmas in a row - following Covid and then having a baby - due to my op, which I don't particularly mind. I can't travel far, so we'll have a small dinner here and open presents with the little one. We might call at a friends gathering later on.

 

My folks came yesterday and we had an easy buffet tea and opened some presents, we'll do the same with the in-laws next week.

I’ve ponced about £50 on cheese today. Not even that much.  Only 5 types, goat, hard rind, blue, smoked cheddar and sheep cheese

 

Just tired a bit of each. Each is awesome. The blue made me sex wee

Just four of us this year. My two boys, the wife, and me. 
 

I was quite looking forward to it but I’ve fallen out with the wife so it promises to be frosty inside the house, if not out.

 

On the upside, I’ve just ordered a pork pie. 

 

That's very kind of you, but get one for yourself too.

I’m still in the bad books with the boss. Polished off a primula squeezy cheese tube and a box of Ritz on Wednesday for me lunch, from the chrimbo shop stuff. She’s clocked it and kicked off.

 

when can you eat the chrimbo stuff?

The wife bought me one of those massive toblerones one Xmas and hid it in the loft. Found it in early December and started nicking some whenever she went out. She was fucking fuming when she found the empty box when she went to wrap stuff on Xmas Eve. Didn't help either that I found it hilarious and woke her up twice by bursting out laughing in bed.

If it's any consolation, I'm laughing out loud reading this.

I reckon we’re close enough to it to open the thread. 
 

What’s everyone doing then?

Here, what’s that to do with you, like?

Should come with a "risk of injury" warning.

My Daughters called me ungrateful when I asked that they never buy me another one 

Also got called miserable for asking for four cans of lager instead of; willy growing kit/hair restoration kit/mug with a piece of chocolate or any of the other fun things they sell in Tesco/asda etc.

We’re hosting this year. Normally the deal is if there are more than 8 we go to the in-laws at they have the space. In those years I’ll buy the meat.

 

As we’re hosting the other in law has bought the meat. 
 

Great I said, I’ll get the pigs and blankets and everything else sorted. 
 

Mother in law proceeds to tell me she sorted the pigs in blankets, the starter, some fizz, Christmas pudding and cake she makes anyway, so I’m left with the cheese, veg and gravy.

 

it’s like I’m not cooking at all

Haha… mother in law just texted to say she’s got the turkey and is making the giblet stock.

 

So aside from coking the meat, looks like only veg to do!

I jest. Of course.

 

she’s been a very welcome and much needed mate these past few weeks, and I wouldn’t want to make a mess of that.

You don’t have to aim for her face. Leave it  in if you’re worried about mess. 

[Lurtz]

Just the two of us and Charlee the bellend Jack Russell. We've gone for rib of beef which reminds me of the beginning credits to The Flintstones.

I'd give the willy growing kit a miss as it's effects are only temporary.

Everyone chatting 100mph shite around the table for the rest of the day?

[VERBAL DIARRHEA]

All the best to everyone x

[Grinch]

Her indoors got me quite the expensive gift 

 

So she’s laid up, taking it easy after a wee scare.  I’m on cooking/cleaning duties.just what I’d be imagining for my work holidays.

 

 Heating’s acting a ballbag into the bargain.  19 month old that doesn’t know what’s going on and will probably play with the box more then any of her toes.

 

I’ve many great ones ahead of me when the little ones know about Santa, this one isn’t shaping up to be the most exciting.
