Christmas presents 2022

[Tony Moanero]

What did everyone get? Nosy sod, me.

[VERBAL DIARRHEA]

My daughter bought me and old Tom and Jerry radio I had as a kid, got NB trainees off my lad and a few nice Tommy Hilfiger sweaters off the mrs. Amongst other things.

[Tony Moanero]

I received a tangerine, a small selection of nuts, a shiny new penny and a kick in the bollocks.

No coal?

[sir roger]

Main present was off the daughter, an overnight dinner, bed and breakfast stay with spa treatments at the Titanic Hotel in early Jan. Paco Rabanne Millions shower gel and deodorant from the Mrs. Various sweet stuff ( Toblerone, Baklava, Turkish Delight ).

 

No parents left and have more or less stopped the presents between us and sisters and brothers as it was getting too expensive. 

[Tony Moanero]

Got these excellent books, too.

Sadly, the wife couldn’t stretch to a piece of coal. We haven’t got a lot but we are happy.

[Captain Willard]

Got the youngest the Lego formula 1 technic. Inconceivably complex. Great fun though. 

[John102]

Got a box of milk tray. Dont think I can make a start on any chocolate until the new year though.

I got nothing from the wife and a coffee mug as a shared present from my boys. 
 

This is a step up from the two cards I received for my 50th in October so I’m understandably feeling spoilt today. 
 

To be honest, I don’t care about presents. They fill me with shame.

Have you got any biscuits in? If so, put the kettle on, make yourself a nice cup of tea and get the delicious bastards dunked.

@YorkshireRed By the way, what’s your opinion on fruit cake eaten with cheese? Is it a Yorkshire thing? I’d never heard of it until I moved to York, and am yet to try it.

I’m in favour. I enjoy both things separately, but adding them together is a small part of the magic of Christmas. 
 

p.s. I only recently realised this was considered a Yorkshire thing. I’d thought everyone was at it. A bit like ferret racing and being careful with money. 

[Babb'sBurstNad]

A little beard care kit, some cheap cologne I like, a nice soup bowl, and the Viz annual.

 

Oh, and a packet of Bounty, after I fell for that PR stunt about them being removed from Celebrations and kicked off about it.

What type of cheese do you have?

[Captain Turdseye]

Highlights from the kids were a boss portable speaker and a globe. I’ve been wanting a globe for ages, it’s given me an excuse to buy a bookshelf.

I’m fine with a bit of mature cheddar for this combination. Apparently the correct answer is Wensleydale.

I wouldn't recommend it with Gorgonzola but a  bit of crumbly white cheese like Cheshire or Wensleydale its good. I Remember my Gran used to like it but as a kid I thought it was gross .  

[Strontium]

I got negs for Christmas.

[Bjornebye]

Hahahahaha Merry Christmas Strontz x 

(I’ll undo the last one it was for Christmas)

Wensleydale is nice as is Cheshire but the king of crumbly cheeses has to be crumbly Lancashire.
