Arthur Noon All. Had my haircut and made the gravy for Thursday. I'm in the process of making the trifle which everybody insists on. I love Christmas Pudding, but no-one else likes it. Middle GG has ordered a bowl full of custard for dessert!

Originally posted by Nannysally99 View PostUp real early and got our shopping for Christmas and Boxing Day. Paid with Sainsbugs points, so all good there. All nice and civilised, and we treated ourselves to breakfast afterwards.
Find it barmy what it costs for a couple of days though.
My tasks up the road at the shops at lunchtime were:
to buy a card (fail - no nice ones),
to buy crackers (yes - half price in Marks)
to buy milk (fail - queue in Ald. was MASSIVE)
to buy froz chips (fail - ditto)
to buy lemonade for port n lemon (yes - a couple of smallish bottles from the newsagent on the corner)
I forgot to wear my santa hat - but maybe that was just as well as I'd been to the gym and the hat would have clashed with my overly pink face!

Evening, we're officially ready for Christmad cards, prezzies and shopping all done, and for the third year in a row we haven't put the tree up instead just decorated the mantle piece some with holly and candles. Think I'm getting lazy about it now there's no one in the family young enough to believe in Santa.Location....East Midlands.

I'm not really a Bah Humbug person and I know lots of you enjoy Christmas - I prefer to opt out and do my own thing without any stress...............sits back, puts feet up and watches puppies playing

Evening all..
Having a relaxing evening.. work tomorrow for a while and then home to watch Christmas movies with the kids with the highlight (for me) being The Polar Express
Get the kids off to bed at some stage, few glasses of red and then the enjoyable task of putting out the toys under the Christmas tree...
Love Christmas Eve....I dream of a better tomorrow, where chickens can cross the road and not be questioned about their motives....

I love Christmas Eve so long as the wrapping is already done...at least now my kids are in their teens we don't have to creep around at 12 building things and I get to have a lie in on Christmas morning! Don't have too many wines Trip tomorrow, they will be up at 5
