The Christmas Thread

Is everyone ready for Christmas now?

We are going to do the Christmas food shop tomorrow.

Is that the one where they give you food for free ? Should have said, we could have had a whip round for you. 

Bought most of the prezzies, just got the wrapping to do which is a bit of a task, every year I make up chocolate hampers with fairy lights in them for the wife and kids with a theme, this year it's there favourite Disney characters and Cadbury's chocolate.

The wife is having nightmare before Christmas, youngest stitch and the eldest Cinderella, got the shredded glitter paper and different colour fairy lights to go in each and spent an age in the Disney store and Asda getting the chocs, now I just need to figure out where to hide them once I put them together.

Still got the big shop to do, house tidy and I need to figure out what to get my brother who I always struggle getting presents for.

when I write it down seems like I am no where near

Put the tree up yesterday- I always leave it late. Did the Christmas food shopping- Ocado will deliver it on Friday and bought the missus present. That too will be delivered by courier on Friday.
That's me done for another year.

Amazon and Ocado, it's the future ordered a few of my pressies on Amazon Now last weekend on Saturday morning and they were delivered less than 2 hours later. It can all be done from your armchair now, if only there was a way of supporting your football club from their too

That's racist that

My big problem with Ocado is that they don't do Hollands pies. What's wrong with them?

Has anyone put their tree up yet?

Mrs Pig want's to but it's way too early. Seen a few trees up already which is mad.

Not in bloody November

I was wondering as I have seen 2 houses now with the mad lights in their front windows and candy canes in their front gardens already and they have been up about a week now so they must have their tree up already too. 

I can only guess the decs have gone up early due to us all having a rather shit year due to the corona.

I have seen a lot of people who seem to have done so, but I wouldn’t dream of it.

I havent heard Mariah Carey on the radio yet, or `stay another day.`

Perfect storm for me this year what with Covid and moving house - two excellent reasons not to have a f*** off tree, traipse round the city shopping or drive all over the country visiting rellies I can chat with online

Must be the season of peace and goodwill.....'cause look....no long-winded, interminable squabbling from he who must prove himself
